lyrics
Spider spins her silken web to catch the fly
She lies there in waiting, in waiting as am I
The drip, drip, drip a ticking clock that slowly marks the time
Each droplet echoes all around, erodes away my mind
Here no light can reach me, in shadow I am cast
Alone I am forgotten. All memory has passed
The very stone that forms these walls grows taller every day
At least that’s how it seems to me as the world creeps away
I cast my mind back now and then to how things used to be
Up there in the golden sun, without a care and free
Now my future’s snapped away I’ve long run out of hope
It would have been a mercy to dangle from a rope

This album is plain and simple a ritual, a beautiful and moody invocation of those ancient gods that so many of us have forsaken. It will take you by the hand and lead you off the beaten path, deeper into the woods than you might feel comfortable with. Hold on tight though, as it may leave you there. So immersive is the experience it may take you a while to find your way out, should you even wish too. A soundtrack for the connections I yearn, the wisdoms I crave. In other words, bloody great. Paul Sands
