lyrics

Dancing alone in this artificial sunset,
I run away to the colors of my mind.
I slip away to find you, or some shadow of you,
And find my memories are blind.

Grief is the widow of all that I have longed for.
Her tears are holy; her waters are delight.
Saltwater washes over every fantasy, she,
She brings my hopes into the light.

Now we stand in this moment
Where converges our desires and disbelief.
We shed our disguises.
We are becoming, saying I, I say Thou.

Plastic cathedrals are gathered on an altar.
Sounds of the ocean, and castles built of sand—
You served me well in time before my heart was wakened,
Before my language learned to breathe.

Now we stand in this moment
Where converges our desires and disbelief.
We shed our disguises.
We are becoming, saying I, I say Thou.

FALL
by Freedom To Glide

As with previous releases this is a solid album from start to finish which continues the storyline, themes and signatures perfectly. 'Enigma' and 'Another Same' are on par with or superior to many commercial offerings by established prog artists. The Waters, Wilson and Hayward influences shine through once more but I also hear song writing very much in the style of Difford and Tilbrook, 'Trough of War' & 'Another Same' probably being the best examples. These chaps are the real deal! rex-the-younger

SEED

Whilst delivering well crafted music, unless you focus on the lyrics, you could miss the story lines. This is the last of the war trilogy, so subtle ,but so poignant. Superb music with broken road and Holding On ,on permanent repeat. Listen and become enthralled. Top quality song writing and musicianship.10/10 kzra

RAIN

Surprisingly good. As may be expected from 2 members of a Pink Floyd tribute band, "Rain" invites comparisons to PF's concept albums and Roger Waters' solo work. Recommended listening for anybody who was disappointed by Endless River! SantaR
