Pronounced Es-tray-uh, and meaning "star" in Spanish, this was one of the first songs we made that truly brought out the voodoo in our musical style. We will have a music video available soon so stay tuned!
lyrics
"Fire!" He cries, fire in his eyes
The jungle awakes as the sounds magnify
Break away, it's time to make an escape
Do anything just to live another day
Go with the motions, don't lose yourself when you
Fall in a place you don't know
You go with the motions
And grab ahold of what you can
To get yourself out of this land
As you pace on, your mind's a ticking bomb
Breathe deep, you've got to be strong
Choose a path to take, you've got to separate
The feeling's you've got and what will become your fate
Like a jungle man who lost control
Fell in a place he don'r know
Now a devil man who lost his soul
Wiped the slate and he followed the role
Now my friends the time has come
To make a decision
Look to the stars above
Remember where you came from
