On March 4th, 2012, Youtube user blackadder73nz uploaded a compilation of footage from the Vietnam War titled "VIETNAM WAR MUSIC video HD and still they come" containing the unknown song, which he claimed was called "And Still They Come".[1]
The song became popular on August 2nd, 2020, when it was first reuploaded to YouTube,[2] WatZatSong,[3] and r/lostwave.[4]
Discovery[edit | edit source]
On May 5th, 2024, YouTube user Denis Hansell commented on the original upload, claiming that he played guitar on the song, that the vocalist and songwriter was an Australian musician named Marco Mazzei, that the song was recorded between 2007 and 2008, and that the OP was his brother-in-law, who requested the song for his video.[5]

| Presumed Lyrics |
| (Verse 1)
All the shadows that move across my wall Keep me up in the night as the darkness calls All the devils and saints are in my mind If I scream out at night, it'll be my time it'll be my time, it'll be my time, it'll be my time (Verse 2) I can see them at night flying next to me All those thoughts in my mind, help me, I can't breathe See the struggle I fight, shadows scream in my mind Leave my maker tonight, and leave the devil behind Leave the devil behind, leave the devil behind, leave the devil behind (Chorus) They're watching you, they're watching me I can help you now, I can help you see And still they come (Verse 3) Standing close to the end for everyone in this world People die without clothes, say their stories aren't told All the shadows, they're still and it's a motion call But light the fire in your eyes, still the devils they come Still the devils they come, still the devils they come, still the devils they come (Chorus) They're watching you, they're watching me (they're watching me) I can help you now, I can help you see (they're watching me) They're watching you, they're watching me (they're watching me) I can help you now, I can help you see And still they come, and still they come Still the devils they come, and still they come (Bridge) Still the devils they... and still they come Still the devils they come, and still they come Still the devils they come, still the devils they come Still the devils they come, they come, they come, they come, they come (Chorus) They're watching you, they're watching me (they're watching me) I can help you now, I can help you see (they're watching me) They're watching you, they're watching me (they're watching me) I can help you now, I can help you see And still they come |
