Popular Tool fansite ToolArchive posted on Monday that rather than the expected mid-May to mid-July expected release given by Maynard James Keenan, the Tool new album is now expected to be released in August or September at the ‘earliest.’ ToolArchive said that others ‘know’ this, then deleted their posts on YouTube and Reddit.
Tool debuted two new songs, “Descending” and “Invincible” at Welcome to Rockville on Sunday night. Fans have attempted to decipher the lyrics, see them below, including an incomplete take on “Descending.”
“Invincible” Lyrics:
Longing tooth and soul
Longing for another win
Merge into the (frame/fray)
Weapon out and bellied in
A warrior, struggling to remain, consequential
Go around
Bold and proud
Where I’ve been?
Here I am
Beating chest and drum
Beating tired bones again
Age-old battle, mine
Weapon out and bellied in
Tales told of battles won
Of things we’ve done
Come give your love, again
Beating tired bones tripping through, remember when?
Once invincible, now the armors wearing thin, heavy shield down
Warrior, struggling, to remain, relevant
Warrior, struggling, to remain, consequential
Cry aloud, bold and proud
Where I’ve been
Here I am
Where I am
Warrior, struggling to remain, relevant
Warrior, struggling to remain, consequential
A tear in my eyes, chasing Ponce de Leons fountain sword
Filled with (holes/hope), I can taste mythical
Sultans false hope, perhaps, but the truth never got in my way
Before now, feel the sting, feeling time, bearing down
In my eyes, chasing Ponce de Leons fountain sword
Filled with (holes/hope), I can taste mythical
Sultans false hope, perhaps, but the truth never got in my way
Before now, feel the sting, feeling time, bearing down
False hope, perhaps, but the truth never got in my way
Before now, feel the sting, feeling time bearing down
Bearing down
“Descending” Lyrics:
To be or not to be.
Rise. Steal the grand finale
Steal the meaning of our swan song and epilogue.
One. Try. To. Stay. Alive.
Never meant to be.
Muster every fiber.
Stay alive.
Steer us from our
Walking slumber
