lyrics

Bittersweet the rain falls, spiraling by so far below
I hold on tight and pretend to feel the coaster dip and roll
I remember the games we played
I remember like yesterday
climbing anticipation for the ride

It's colder than it should be and my fingers won't line up
the rock is slick and slanted and I think I might fall off
It's all inside of your head she says to me
where will it be when I'm dead I say to her
I climb a quiet mountain to the stars

Limbo and Flux
never know quite how much
mother on the pearl
or love in the world
caught in between
worlds of wonder and of sheen
worlds of blinders and bucks
in my Limbo and Flux

I tackle disrespect by being blissfully detached
I give away my music but I want to take it back
It isn't there to be spit upon
I only wanted to sing my song
A muffled bell might as well be lost

When every day is a feature for the comic strip
I can speak in bubbles, only words that fit
I walk on pins and needles
my head up in the clouds
I hold my tongue just thinking
the words don't leave my mouth

Turning through the twilight to the corner of my mind
I wonder how I got to where the colors seem so bright
everything around me is within
everything around me I can touch
in the thick of it looking towards
the Limbo and Flux

Limbo and Flux
never know quite how much
mother on the pearl
or love in the world
caught in between
worlds of wonder and of sheen
worlds of blinders and bucks
in my Limbo and Flux

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

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
