This voice is a vessel for the hopeless
For the voiceless and the fragile
A vessel for those who look skyward
Longing to leave this cold earth behind
This voice is a vessel for the breathless
For the motionless and the dying
A vessel for those who stare blindly
Waiting for change beyond their control
For the motherless droves who've given up
And pinned their hopes on falling stars
This voice is a vessel for the faithless
For the nameless and the broken
A vessel for those who look downward
Those unable to lift their heads high
A vessel for those who stare bleakly
Burdened by the pain in their eyes
Those who've heard my cold voice calling
"who has stolen the stars from the sky?"
I will carry you far from here
Further than you could know
I will help you reach the end
Never to descend
A vessel to carry you to a place in the sky
I will be your sacrifice, your vessel
A place where we can shine our lanterns high
Connecting in the plains of darkness
I will carry you, I'll birth you to the sky
I will be your sacrifice, your vessel
A place where we can shine our lanterns high
Connecting in the plains of isolation
Deliverance into unending light
Scattered like ephemeral embers in the night
Sent above to cast a glow so bright
Together I know we can make it right
I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here. David Fischer
PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it.
That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
These guy's love the Devin townsend's Epic sound Which sounds as if its from another reality, And they make their own Hyper yet drifting Similar to seeing a comet whizzing by the atmosphere. A joy to witness but over, As soon as the majesty of it all sinks in! John Chaos Alexander
