Cry Out For Me
02:26
|
|||
|
When every wall has fallen
and violence is your pleasure
when every bone is broken
and misery is your treasure
cry out for me
cry out for me
When every dawning is a pain
and each light ray leaves a stain
when every river has run dry
then it's time to ask me why
cry out for me
cry out for me

Autumn Storm
07:21

The autumn storm has blown right across the land
the autumn storm has shown its strong hand
it's left us with trouble we don't really need
lord, have mercy, that's what we pleed
The autumn storm has blown right across the land
it ain't what we wanted, and noone did demand
nothing but chaos was left for us to see
lord, have mercy, that's what we pleed
Now the wind has broken us into two
the chills cooled me down - what's the right to do
I wanna be safe, I wanna be warm
help me through the autumn storm
Ruins we are left with - no place to hide
make your decisions - live them with pride
wait for the sun to shine right through
Lord, have mercy, I know I would do

Sermons & Lies
09:27

You say it's summertime, but still it rains
you say that the sun will shine, but the cold days remain
oh, when I look back now, it's always been the same
you say it's summertime, but still it rain
No, I won't listen anymore
No, I won't listen anymore
No, I won't listen anymore
to all your sermons and all your lies no more
You are pretending the truth in your very own way
all your unimportant words, just everything you say
oh, when I look back now, it's always been the same
you were always pretending the truth in your very own way
No, I won't listen anymore
No, I won't listen anymore
No, I won't listen anymore
to all your sermons and all your lies no more
Now we've sent you to hell, to where you belong
down to the kingdom of fire that burns on and on
face to face with the devil and it's deamons
until you have learned
there's something that money can't buy
that money can't buy
No, I won't listen anymore
No, I won't listen anymore
No, I won't listen anymore
to all your sermons and all your lies no more

Life

What - what's this life
It's not full of care - not full of care
what's this life - it's not full of care
we have no time to stand and stare
Ahaaa Ahaaa
No time to lie beneath the trees
and stare - stare at cows and sheep
No - no time to see
when woods we pass - when woods we pass
No time to see when woods we pass
where squirrels hide their nuts in grass
Ahaaa Ahaaa
No time to lie beneath the trees
and stare - stare at cows and sheep
No - no time to turn
at beauty's glance - at beauty's glance
no time to turn at beauty's glance
at beauty's glance - at beauty's glance
Ahaaa Ahaaa
No time to lie beneath the trees
No time to lie beneath the trees
No time to lie beneath the trees
and stare
stare at cows and
stare at cows and
stare at cows and
stare at cows and sheep

As We Spoke
08:42

|
And as we spoke a new day broke
and the new day - the new day was dawning
and as we spoke blue skies awoke
and the new day - the new day was dawning
and as we spoke you would provoke
and the new day - the new day was dawning
and as we spoke you'd left your note
and the new day - the new day was dawning
And as we spoke you would devote
your warm and tender feelings
and as we spoke your eyes were wide
your eyes were wide - wide and open
and as we spoke you find the time
to hold my hand - hold my hand and stroke me
and as we spoke time just went on
and I hope never more without you
Life don't leave it's scars believe - without any reason
Life don't leave it's scars believe - no it's full of treason
Life don't leave it's scars believe - you're my only reason
Life don't leave it's scars believe - my only hope it's freezing
And as we spoke you my only hope
were overtaking a special part of me
and as we spoke - yes, my heart, it broke
and you became a special part of me
and as we spoke all time would evoke
I have never been - been as keen as now
and as we spoke I knew right now
I'd stay with you, no matter how
Life don't leave it's scars believe - without any reason
Life don't leave it's scars believe - no it's full of treason
Life don't leave it's scars believe - you're my only reason
Life don't leave it's scars believe - my only hope it's freezing
And as we spoke
And as we spoke
And as we spoke - you
my only hope - you
were over-taking
a special part
and as we spoke - yes
my heart, it broke - yes

Arena

Walking down - all the way
To the place - where you stay
You wait for me - you call me out
Fight to the finish - to the knockout round
Arena lights - shine down on me
Thousands of people, that‚s what I see
You challenge me - you call me out
So mess with the best and you'll soon going down
The lights are on - the stage is set
So let the games begin
Down to the ground - I promise you
I'll fight until the end
You love to fight - don't make me laugh
Don't be a fool - come on get lost
Don't you dare - cut the crap
I am stone-cold - you're stone-dead
Every man for himself
No excuses - no chance in hell
Son of a b**ch - excuse my French
But don't you ever mess with me again
The lights are on - the stage is set
So let the games begin
Down to the ground - I promise you
I'll fight until the end
Down to the ground - I promise you
I'll fight until the end

Red Roses And Bullets
06:10
|

|
When you dream of a way - and find the words to say
when you seem to enjoy all your feelings annoy
like a thorn tears your skin - and the pain is within
like a shot in the dark of a lonely left park
When you dream of a way - and find the words to say
when you seem to enjoy all your feelings annoy
like a thorn tears your skin - and the pain is within
like a shot in the dark of a lonely left park
Red roses and bullets do the same deed
Red roses and bullets both make you bleed
Can't it be like we pray - can't we stay just this way
when you hope for an answer they look up and they say
like a thorn tears your skin - and the pain is within
like a shot in the dark where it's lonely and dark
wonderful and heart-healing you have been to me
won't you say that you love me, so the world then can see
Red roses and bullets do the same deed
Red roses and bullets both make you bleed

Howard's End

Howard's End can never mend
a heart that's broken through - Howard's End
Howard's End can never send
an arrow straight to you - Howard's End
Howard's End could make amends
for every love that never ends - Howard's End
Howard's End can't be sustained
it's violence, but it's true - Howard's End
Arrows pears a skin so soft
I've stroked enough and loved it too
Target right through my side
an arrow, an arrow straight to you
Howard's End the time has come
no feeling can return to you - Howard's End
Howard's End you've lost a friend
I hope you choose to do - Howard's End
Howard's End can never mend
a heart that's broken through - Howard's End
Howard's End could never send
an arrow straight to you - Howard's End
Arrows pears a skin so soft
I've stroked enough and loved it too
Target right through my side
an arrow, an arrow straight to you
Howard's End can never mend
a heart that's broken through - Howard's End
Howard's End can never send
an arrow straight to you - Howard's End
Howard's End could make amends
for every love that never ends - Howard's End
Howard's End can't be sustained
it's violence, but it's true - Howard's End
Arrows pears a skin so soft
I've stroked enough and loved it too
Target right through my side
an arrow, an arrow straight to you
Arrows pears a skin so soft
I've stroked enough and loved it too
Target right through my side
an arrow, an arrow straight to you

Abarax Enger, Germany
Around autumn 2003 Howard Hanks, Dennis Grasekamp and Udo Grasekamp, all members of the band Taste of Timeless decided, they had to do something about the "Pink Floyd-less times". As they were all big fans of this music, they were all suffering with the lack of new material from this band. Somebody had the brilliant idea during a practising session to play a floydian theme. The idea was born.... ... more

When you like your prog to be more beautiful and/or accessible than prog-proggy, than this is for you! Melodic as hell and yes, Peter Falconer is quite a singer! That wouldn't go half the way without the solid songs of Pat Sanders. A great combination of skills ;-)

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!

Spinning Through Eternity
by Tom Kelly
Subdued and elegiac songs from Tom Kelly that have the grandeur of classical music, the technicality of prog, and the sweep of synthwave.

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!
