WATERS RISING by Lillian Axe (2007)

Lillian Axe is a long-established (1983) heavy rock/metal group from New Orleans.  Their melodic seventh CD has the track Antarctica.  Lyrics: “I climbed the mountains and scaled the ice.  Released defiance.  My blood ran white, cold and numb.  I saw the shadows of demigods.  Whispering answers that time forgot.  Forever true.  I’m frozen blue.  There’s not much time.  I died for you.  A true believer, the king of lies.  We all betrayed you.  Your blood ran white.  I’m frozen blue.  There’s not much time.  I died for you.  Antarctica.”  Steve Blaze, original member and lead guitarist told us, “This song was written to correlate the vastness of Antarctica to the isolation and emptiness that we experience in our lives.  When I imagine the infinite whiteness and desolation of that area, it overwhelms me.  It’s beautiful yet frightening.”  Locomotive Records LM493; www.lillianaxe.com
