lyrics

We have come to the crossroads, without a sign
We have come to the cliff's edge, with the lemmings close behind
So let's take this chance to grab a last embrace
Before the heavens open and strike down this lost race
Lucifer before sunrise, waits in a blood red night
An angel like a bird of prey, an angry god with a knife
We, who could have had everything, we threw it all away
We, who could have been master, are now only slaves
They're ringing the bells in heaven, they're ringing the bells in hell
We're taking our last steps, without souls left to sell
So let's take this chance to grab a last embrace
Before hell opens and swallows this lost race
Lucifer before sunrise, waits in a blood red night
An angel like a bird of prey. A rising god with a knife

Excellent medieval folk, IGR, & those with ears to hear. I love the sense of mysticism and deep, introspective ponder this album conveys, & the honest down-to-earth folky lyrics. Simply wonderful yet soulfully rich. Highlights for me are tracks 2, 5, 6, & 12. IGR truly capture what I feel is an authentic sense of a medieval bard at a woodland rill pondering the mysteries of life. Highly recommended. 8.5+/10. Alrihkh
