In Zen practice, there is a great deal of optimism in the face of this sort of cataclysm. The constructions all fall down, the dust settles and there it is;
Rain falls and the grass grows by itself.
lyrics
SCREAM – A WAKING BED, ISN'T ALL HOT ATTACK - IN A BLISS DRIVEN MOMENT
DREAM – INTO A RED A FACT
CAUSES ALL TO COMMIT, TO A TERRIBLE NIGHTMARE
WE - FALL UPON OUR RELATIONSHIP
GRANTING ASYLUM TO THE WORTHY OPPONENT
SEE - HOW THE FANTASY CRUMBLES
AN HONEST WORD
I WANT IT TO MEAN SOMETHING – MORE
SPEAK - AND THEY WILL FLY AWAY, ALL THE FINE ARTIFACTS OF OUR
BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIP
CALL - ME, I AM YOURS TO SWAY
ALL THE ALMS A RESPECT, THAT I LAY AT YOUR ALTAR
FEEL – FALL APART AND BE FRACTURED
THE SYSTEM ALIGNS TO REFLECT A NEW ORDER
WE - STRIKE AND JUSTICE IS BLINDED
AN HONEST WORD FAILS FOR THE SIBILANT TYRANT
CALL - ALL THE GENTLEMEN SCHOLARS
THE MONEY WILL FLOW AND CREATE A CONSENSUS
SEE - HOW THE FANTASY CRUMBLES
AN HONEST WORD, FAILS
(All these lies are told, it’s a suffering,
In our hands, in our heads,
In our hearts there’s an aching for,
Honesty sweet,
And the fall of a thousand flowers in the summer breeze,
It’s the sweetest delusion, the sweetest delusion,
Save me friend – save me friend
Save me from save me from save me from save me from)
I WANT IT TO MEAN SOMETHING MORE
I WANT IT TO MEAN SOMETHING MORE
(AVE THE MARIA GIVEN TO ME THIS VALLEY OF FABLES)
(AVE THE MARIA GIVEN TO ME THIS VALLEY OF FABLES)
(AVE THE MARIA GIVE UNTO ME THIS VALLEY OF FABLES)
I WANT IT TO MEAN SOMETHING MORE

I am surprised by this and I think I am jaded. I like the D.I.Y. sound. Makes me feel like I'm in the bedroom/recording studio of a couple of kick-ass musician friends ... and they are smiling. Void Where Prohibited
It's incredibly balanced, this warm fuzzfest. Groovy without being kitsch, heavy without being doomy. I can't think why anyone couldn't find something to latch onto here. Rock. Void Where Prohibited
This is music that will target your cherished opinions. It forces comparisons and by the time you have framed them, it has already left that conversation for somewhere else. Enjoy! Void Where Prohibited
