Your muddy banks to walk
And moss-covered stone
Will you sing me your song?
Are you hiding it from me?
Will you keep so secretive?
And so, there must be a reason
In the evening
Your sad fountains weep
Young lady don't lie to me
Last night I was lost
A grey fog of grey thought
Tried to swallow me whole
When I meet you I'll have cast a thousand stones
I'll be bones upon bones
I'll be glowing like a ghost

Endless Night
03:11
|
|||
Unwinding roads yield winding paths
Beware the deadly dragon's breath
A dark harp of sorrows I'll bare
O dark globe I roam
When love’s in bud
A virgin light
The moon it glows
The sun it shines
No time to fear the hourglass
Put out the flame or make it last
The fog rolls in
All fades to white
All things are lost in endless night
A falling feeling fills me whole
O wings of love return once more
To feel the winds that weed the grass
And see the mists as they come to pass
I love to see the flowers amass
My love to reap, to sow

Shadowland

Just say the word
My loving bird
I'll be in flight
To see you tonight
I had a fall
In a shadow land
In the dragon's lair
In the coal black sand
I had a walk
Where the trees are bare
Black winter snares
Await me there
Cast your line and reel
Let your love shine down
(((O))) how I've longed
For the promised land
Where the grass is green
And the children dance

Eagle Unseen
02:30
|

Darkness has fallen
Thick is the fog
Join howl with the wild white wolves
Winter has come
I hear a war knocking at the door
Tales of the eagle unseen
I smell the fear welling in our souls
Winter has come
In the Dark Night of Saint John
There's nowhere to run
Winter has come
Darkness has fallen

In the Shade

Softly she speaks in waves
Her words are snakes
To worm their way in
Awfully plain to see
She is for you, she is for me
A lovely place to be
In the shade
No one can see
Tongues of lily white
Don't shield your eyes
A mouth of mire to taste your sides
Lonely in the grass I'm free at last
Walk with me again
Through the woods of no regret
It's a lovely place to be
In the shade
No one can see

Indian Summer

Indian summer with Mary J
Sing for the colors and for a change
No one can see me from where I am
It's city living that's killing them
Indian summer
A little longer
Hello the rain cloud above my head
You cannot touch me
A silver meadow I wander in
A golden forest in autumn's peak
Indian summer
A little longer
Spend the night with me

Morning Star

Western wind wash over me again
As it's written in the stars
A light shall pierce the dark
To color me with calm confidence
To bring bread
and fruit and gold
I hunger for it all
Through mists and rain my chalice awaits
The earth does shake with the coming of the end
Fear not her icy touch,
Kind mother loves her sons.
The earth does shake with the coming of the end
As it's written in the stars
A light shall pierce the dark
Take her hand again
Through mists and rain my chalice awaits
Western wind wash over me again

Mad John
02:10
|
|||
Big hairy-armed monster
Whiskey on the brain
Chasing all the girls away
When mad John comes from the wood
Mad johns up to no good
Madman John, he's on the prowl again
His mean red eyes will cut right through your skin
When mad John comes from the wood
Mad John's up to no good
He'll blow your houses down
He'll terrify your town
He'll stamp your fire out
When Mad John comes from the wood
Mad John's up to no good

O mighty wind
In loving wise
Sing sylphid sing your song of light
O great and mighty king, whisperer of secret things
Sing sylphid sing to the Salamander King
Eternal queen
In loving wise
O how the days have passed me by
Sing sylphid sing to the salamander king
May the dying embers be kindled
Once more and forevermore

Darksiders' Blues
06:01
|

O cold, dark age
To my dismay
Under shadow rule
O wicked cave
What can a poor boy do?
Pray for deluge
What can a poor boy do?
Sing the doomsday blues
I can see you there
In the setting sun
In the ashes and the flames
in the locust swarm
And in the boiling ocean's deep
I hear a voice of reckoning
The end is nigh, the future bleak
Our tired race could use some sleep
Oh, cold, dark age
To my dismay
Under shadow rule
Oh, wicked cave
O police state
Just a glowing ember, a gust of wind is all I seek
A flame to be to light your wick
Illuminate the crawling spaces

Want
To feel
Alive
Dizzy in the green grass
For the days
For the nights I've laid waste
Books for the brain
Ghosts to their graves
Pour their souls out into nothing
Look see the rain
It's going away
The sunlight is coming out today
We'll dance dance dance
Dance around the green man
The gravestones are talking to me

Shadow Band Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Riding in on a cloud of smoke, psychedelic travelers Shadow Band sound more like a foggy dream of fantastical lands than any easily identifiable set of musical choices. Their patient but powerful sounds set in motion a series of refracting echoes, conjuring up images of medieval battles, blissed-out trips and the haze of a sleep-deprived commune of heads in a state of perpetual vibing. ... more
