On the Mountain at Dawn is the first track of Om’s debut album. It is their longest song to date, with over 20 minutes of pure doom metal.
Sonically, the track is very repetitive and harsh, like the other two songs in the album. Al’s crispy bass tone is matched by Chris' hard drumming and together...
[Verse 1]
Vibrates the field and now the waveplate sun descending
Flight toward the new day to through black sunrise tomorrow
Refracts the waveplate school and now High Priestess sending
Into the field and climbs the waveform to the theme
[Verse 2]
Vibrates the field and toward the waveplate sun descending
Refracts the new day to through black sun toward tomorrow
On the elliptic flight the High Priestess is sending
Into the field dissolves the waveform to the theme
[Verse 3]
Look out to onto red bled sun, the Hierophant is seeding
Accretes the ground nerve skein and sections cross in grace
Refracts the waveplate field and now High Priestess sending
Into the field and climb the waveform to the theme
[Verse 4]
Ascends the swan toward sun in breath-drawn life deliverance
Latitudinal ground, elliptic motion sets unveil
Approach the grid substrate, the sunglow's beam to freedom
Winds grieve the codex shines and walks toward the grey
[Verse 5]
Striates into the sky on outward spires reaching
Under orbic vermilion sun, migration on the wings
Summit upholds the canopy skies of a new day
Into the field and climbs the waveform to the theme
[Verse 6]
Anchorite beacon to sentient ground
Platform witnessed to diffuse tomorrow screen
Anchorite beacon to sentient ground
The platform witnessed to diffuse tomorrow screen
[Verse 7]
Alterates grid on the outer of a newborn theme
Choric to the windship, walk toward horizon
Alterates grid on the outer of a newborn theme
And pass into the orbit arm out from source to freedom
[Verse 8]
Arise to sky and set free, release toward horizon
Arise to sky and set free, release toward horizon
To sun glides the albatross, set onto the skein of freedom
To sun glides the albatross, set onto the skein of freedom
[Verse 9]
Alterates grid on the outer of a newborn theme
A choric to the windship out from the source to freedom
Alterates grid on the outer of a newborn theme
And pass into the orbit arm out from source to freedom
[Verse 4]
Ascends the swan toward sun in breath-drawn life deliverance
Latitudinal ground, elliptic motion sets unveil
Approach the grid substrate, the sunglow's beam to freedom
Winds grieve the codex shines and walks toward the grey
[Verse 5]
Striates into the sky on outward spires reaching
Under orbic vermilion sun, migration on the wings
Summit upholds the canopied skies of a new day
Into the field and climbs the waveform to the theme
