Blessed are the meek
for they shall inherit the earth
Blessed are those who hunger
and thirst for righteousness
for they shall be satisfi ed
I miss the song in my head that I never
could get out, oh no
There’s a trace of a smile in my heart when
I think about the people I know, I know
There was a song in the breeze
much bigger than the world, I know
Can I hope to live within that song,
escape back to the world I used to know
when the smoke-fi lled breeze
smothers eyes and soul
and the blood in streams
drowns the song of peace
War - I don’t know what it’s for
don’t want fi ght this war any more
Hate - can only isolate
don’t want to hate my brothers no more
There’s a wind across the sand that
silences the song, I know
I can’t hear the song no more, pain inside
my heart’s the only song that I know
when I look around, see the looks of hate
aimed at what I’ve become
numb without the song
I can’t hear it, I can’t feel it
I can’t hear you, I can’t feel you
there are faces in my head
that I just can’t escape, I know
can I live with what I’ve done,
faces taken from the world, I don’t know

Absolutely hooked on this album from first listen. How rare is that with prog!??? Excellent songwriting and musicianship. Can’t wait to dive into the rest of the collection. Thomas Lock
In the wake of buying the Welcome To The Planet I also went for this older "EP" (clocking in on 70 minutes a rather big big EP...) as a final farewell to a very bright bright star that sadly doesn't shine anymore. Carsten Pieper
