lyrics

Crimson was our start
Roots of red burst from the dark

Though the years are spent and gone
Still this scarlet song lives on

As breath from black is born
Back to nothingness we’ll go

In between, caught in the dawn
Still this scarlet song lives on

With goodbyes, I’ll turn to clovers
And pray that time fade that fire
And with luck I’ll rest in gray

And yet the smiles will always smolder
Though the wounds may fade to gray

Our lives are drawn in crimson light, forever
I’ll stay here for the night, forever
No escaping memory’s burning ties, forever
Nostalgia defies time

Some find comfort in fate
I would sink under the weight

But no escape, the web is spun
And this scarlet song lives on

Our lives are drawn in crimson light, forever
I’ll stay here for the night, forever
No escaping memory’s burning ties, forever
Nostalgia defies time, forever

The end of time
Fades no
Fire
Fire

Our lives are drawn in crimson light, forever
I’ll stay here for the night, forever
No escaping memory’s burning ties, forever
Nostalgia defies time, forever

The Second Brightest Star
by Big Big Train

In the wake of buying the Welcome To The Planet I also went for this older "EP" (clocking in on 70 minutes a rather big big EP...) as a final farewell to a very bright bright star that sadly doesn't shine anymore. Carsten Pieper

The Great Leap

Quite enjoyable album. I like the clarity of the lyrics, & their emotive, thought provoking narrative. The music is expressive & never too complicated. I enjoy the folky, reflective segments. Although not well acquainted with the concept of the work, I am eager to explore the whole trilogy of albums, of which this is the 1st. I expect to edit my review at some point. For now, I find this album interesting & easy to listen to. My thanks, Phideaux, for your generosity & music. 7.5+/10. Alrihkh

Lover's End Pt. III

I'm always somewhat reluctant to listen to epics longer than 10 minutes. Why? Well... lots of them are just... er... long! Song ideas for 5 minutes, inflated to 15, 20, 30, ore more minutes. Yes, each prog band must have at least one 20-minute concerto on an album, right? Yawn... usually I wish they'd have left off the epics... But not so in this case. Fortunately - because this album consists of just one single epic - and it's a great one! This is how this old musical form inherited from 70's art rock was meant to be: A great piece of music to be remembered. This one surely will be... Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)
