The ConstruKction Of Light (part II)- KC (i believe)

Now for another:

If I could just frame the words that would make your fire burn
all this water now around me could be the love that
should surround me.

Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

Seeing that I resurected the thread I suppose I'd better keep it moving

Tardis, the song is Shroud Of Frost by Anathema

Here's another...

Time sun hurt trust peace dark rage

sad white rain sun anger hurt soft

trust night rage rain white hope dark

sacred sun time trust hurt rage anger

rain white light

 

"Without prog, life would be a mistake."

Yes is not really correct!

As close to Yes as they might get, it is Anderson-Bruford-Wakeman-Howe

Tool- Eulogy

Over she cries through the rope ends and silk ties.  Beautiful life escaping her young blue eyes.
But life holds her hand, refusing to let go leaving her breathing on the floor.

Ok here's one

I stood alone upon the highest cliff-top,
looked down, around, and all that I could see
were those that I would dearly love to share with
crashing on quite blindly to the sea....
I tried to ask what game this was
but knew I would not play it:
the voice, as one, as no-one, came to me....

Can I breath life into this thread?   

And through the window in the wall
Comes streamin' in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning
And no one sings me lullabies
And no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky

Another good song by Peter Blegvad. He is certainly overlooked on lyric polls.

 "Real Slap in the Face" by Peter Blegvad from his album King Strut and other Stories (an over-looked classic!)

In your house is a room I avoid
Full of junk and broken toys
(in my house)

In my house ideas grow and levitate
In your house is a voice I obey

And I can touch the sky

I can feel freedom
I can taste purity
I cast off chains
To put them on again

In your house time expands
And touches on experience

In my house there is a room
I reach through deceptive means
To see the view

He lived with her for seven years,
told everyone how big his feelings were.
Then one day he up and disappeared.
How could he play such a trick on her?
It was a real slap in the face.

He knew she was so afraid of scandal
that he could count on her not to tell
that he hadn't only left her high and dry and big with child,
but had taken all the jewelry as well -
it was a real slap in the face.

She listened to his lies as she lay in his embrace,
he could only love a woman in the heat of the chase -
it was a real, a real, a real slap in the face.

They found her in pyjamas, wandering the streets
trapped like a rat in a maze.
She gave birth in a cell on a bunk with no sheets
to a daughter they told her wasn't fit to breathe -
it was a real slap in the face.

And hers is not an isolated case,
when it's least expected, anytime, anyplace
someone's bound to get a real, a real, a real slap in the face.

Until you spoken to, don't speak, turn the other cheek
when you're slapped in the face and it hurts,
and if you're feeling to weak, remember the meek
will inherit the earth.

The swindler hit on someone else and soon they settled down,
she was lonely, rich and gullible - a fool.
One day she walked out onto her patio and found
the honey-tounge deceiver at the bottom of the pool -
it was a real slap in the face.

Well, the story doesn't have a happy ending,
I've said all I've got to say.
The characters are begging: "Don't abandon us like this!
What have we ever done to be treated this way?
It's a real slap in the face!"

Isn't that one Forsaken Gardens off of Peter Hammill's The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage?
