(Since I don't care about 801, despite the greatness of its individual members, I don't know their lyrics at heart... but I know some of Genesis'...)

GENESIS  -  The Colony of Slippermen

Now.......

"Touched by the wings, fears angel brings
Sad winter storm, grey autumn dawn"

EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER - "Hymn (The Only Way)"

Trying to trace a reason
from the spinning words
but all I've heard
seem at odds with their meanings

PETER HAMMILL: Faint-Heart and the Sermon

Faith is cold as ice
Why are little ones born only to suffer
For the want of immunity
Or a bowl of rice?

RUSH - Roll the bones

"...Gazing in simplicity,
Toward ambitions that she craves.
The best thing since arithmetic..."
"I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy."

Cold, empty, alone
Embrace the violence
The saints are silent
God won't perform here anymore"

Yet bristle at my words

You piss in your bathtub

And see yourself as clean"

Day-glo, that was "So Human" by Salem Hill. Killer, heavier tune -- hard-hitting lyrics!Thumbs Up

Try this: "The people hurry by, all looking for a corner, and if they meet a friend who asks them to repay some old favour...."

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.

to reassure them and to pierce the fear
standing at controls then still unknown
we told the world we were about to go"

GONG - 'You Never Blow Your Trip Forever'

"Words cause our banner, victorious our day.
Will silence be promised as violence display?
The curse increased we fight the power
And live by it by day."

Yes - Gates of delerium from relayer

 

probably too easy but I love this next song

New shadows tugging at the corner of his eye

Jostling for attention as the sunlight flares

Through a curtains tear, shuffling it's beams

as if in nervous anticipation of another day
