Smooth djazz. That´s what I like to call this song. Warm acoustic guitar, sax, roaring bass, grinding rhythm guitars and a story of a life written down in a book. What more would you want?
lyrics
scribbling profane markings upon the page beneath the twilight
we've become the authors of ourselves
finding pleasure in the mundane
we all fall down
[befriend the ground]
accepting imposition abandoning our mission
to permanent submission the enemy of vision
believing in a fiction ignoring composition
a haphazard decision escaping definition
rejecting admonition we lose our indivision
beyond all recognition fulfilling premonitions
falling into attrition refusing this remission
while making no revisions the perfect contradiction
avoiding a confession we sink into regression
conform or seek secession instead of face aggression
until we're left to question our imminent succession
and buried in depression begin the great recession
we were called-to greater
paths sojourners in this
world
let go of life
embrace the strife
when did we become so useless?
uniting with the transient
and blindly thinking we're alive
spending existence on the bland
believing we're the ones who
really know the purpose of this experience
we may as well skip to the end
resign ourselves to decadence
and simply sit upon our hands awaiting
an outcome we can't comprehend
what good is it to have a
resolution you can't understand?
This tale is not done
Open chapter one
To the stars ascend
Before it is too late to begin again
Cool compositions and great production – Who Bit the Moon is full of prog-rock moments that uplift and quickly capture attention. Neat changes in tempo add interest, and plentiful guitar hooks deliver moments to savour. Michael Reilly
