Looking for an inspiration
In this rotten reality
Different ways to ease the sorrows
Killing fire glowing inside me
Many times I neared the edge of hope
Seeking calm in isolation
Never soothes in truthful way
Masking fears with fake emotions
Never felt true sympathy at all
On the verge trying not to slip
Bridge
With every dawn thoughts seem so renewed
Plans look real and ready
Hope glares clear and strong
You think you are able to cut off the past
To look into future, picture it bright
But it all bursts!
When you have to face the world
again
in vain
Knowledge may be deadly shadow
Spectre haunting mind and soul
If you cross the certain border
You’ll be dragged right to the fall
You’ll be dragged right into your fall
Clutching madly at sanity
Wanting to just freeze this way here
But you must choose direction
Or face the only destination left
And there’s no way back from there
No way back from there, no way back again.
Just reckon that when
When you’re in, you’re here to stay

Fool And Death
07:37

I cannot believe what my eyes see
The wind is blowing in the dark again
Fool and Death foretell the future
And the crowds of fools are crazed with the joy x2
The wheel of fortune has turned again
The meaning of simplest of words has changed
Greed and hate are showing on banners
And all hope is lost. There’s no wind of change x2
I can shelter in charm of the day
But shadow will never let me escape
The guard hits unholy gong of doom
And the final strife is just inch away.

The Fall of Phaeton

Father please forgive me
Foolish boldness
And my hollow pride
I brought you the shame
Light is blinding my eyes
All of my skin burns
Filled with pain
Everlasting pain
In domain of Aether
All consuming flame
Starts to grow
Reaching up for stars
The terrific Scorpius
Coming down to get me
With his claw
Rip my soul apart
If I could withdraw my whim
Right now
I would waste no time at all
Lead a carefree, jolly life
Again
Mother, take me far away
From here
Hear your son’s voice calling
HEAR YOUR SON'S VOICE CALLING
In a rushing madness
Don’t know what to do
Or where to go
Reins slip from my hands
Poison tongue of Serpens
Pours its bitter venom
To my heart
Spirit slowly fades
Now I understand and see it
The conceit has doomed me
I should have known
In the face of raw force
Trembles everybody under sky:
Mortal, hero, god.
If I could withdraw my whim
Right now
I would waste no time at all
Lead a carefree, jolly life
Again
Mother hear your son.
Take me away from here!
Ruthless heat’s siphoning
Earthly juices,
Making rivers boil
Melting stone and soil
Earth is cracking madly
And unyielding light is sipping
Through
Into Hade halls
Nothing can go on forever
The eagle needs to land,
The arrow to stall
Deep inside I knew it
That as high you climb so hard
You fall
When the thunder roars.
Far too late to withdraw now
My whim
No time left to waste at all
Can’t go back to life I knew
Again
Mother, soon you will
Mourn your beloved, dear son.

Luminous We Are
10:45

|
All the time and space
Can be a heavy burden
See
All the people roam this earth
Mere grains of sand down here
But gazing far away
Reaching past their own
Mortal existence
Grasping truth will only set you free
Your soul exceeds the space
The end will be the start
... Confident once more, like a high diver who had regained his nerve, he launched himself across the light-years. The galaxy burst forth from the mental frame in which he had enclosed it; stars and nebulae poured past him in an illusion of infinite speed. Phantom suns exploded and fell behind as he slipped like a shadow through the cores ...
... He was back, precisely where he wished to be, in the space that men called real.

Still, Constantly

You know I feel so well when I share good word
Don’t tell me to understand
Before you disappear and escape from here
Just hear what I say
Lonely people lost in life
Blindly they rush ahead
Silent call for any help - unheard
Goals forgotten long ago
Dreams had withered and died
So I obliged myself to carry message
I bring the words that purify
Do not reject the hand I extend to you
Let me ease the pain
See that I have touched the light
Now it shines through my eyes
Take it now and spread the news on earth
Pass this force to other ones
Let them wake up again
Know you’re winning day after day
Searching for the truth my friend
Still, constantly

The Great Lie
07:06
|

|
Scrolling back through memories now
I recall the time of youth
Everlasting summer days
Sun was bringing joy and warmth
So many paths to choose
Oh, they told me so
And I believed
Filled with dreams and expectations of
Chances waiting just for me
Feeling ready and grown up
I left to take the world
Faithful to what I have learned
Kept my virtues firm and strong
Stand up for motherland
Oh, they told me so
And I believed
Filled with dreams and expectations of
Glory waiting just for me
Bridge
So they took me away
And told me to fight
In distant lands
For honor in righteous wars
Where the killing brings you no disgrace
Fool I was to trust their twisted tongues
They’ve made me deranged
Know that they have deceived me
Led me to sin
Mind-numbed me and made me blind
I’ll be forever bloodstained
Tainted and vile
Marked till the end of my life
So on every occasion
Keep in your mind thought that hurts but shall set you straight
All that you have believed in
All that you’ve learned
All you’ve considered worth praise
Was a lie.

To Touch the Sky
by The Emerald Dawn

Wonderful, beautiful, densely layered music. I'm glad I gave this album several headphone listens before commenting. It did not immediately strike a chord with me, but the more I listened the more I began to understand and appreciate how fantastically rich and deep the sound is. For fans of atmospheric and melodic prog, this is an excellent addition. Bass and drum work are exquisite!

Forsaken Innocence
by Drifting Sun
supported by 30 fans who also own “The Great Lie”
Soothfully a phenomenal prog rock album—an instant classic. What motivates me to say so, is the music’s incredible expressiveness & its wonderfully cinematic song structures. Jargon is a very good fit with this band. It is quite evident that the band’s current lineup have great chemistry together & that they share a common affinity to this vein of music. I look forward to their next creation. Drifting Sun are definitely one of prog rock’s brightest lights. Thank you, DS! 9+/10.
