about

"Highlights include ‘Beyond Revelation’ with guitar playing so starkly emotive it feels like it would fall apart if you reached out and prodded it, overlayered with singing that cracks and flutters alternately to almost dizzying effect." - Dave Urwin, Live Music Scene - album review

lyrics

He had a message of how to make water in the desert

While all around him the people were parched for thirst, they knew no cloud

But little did he know there were places where the clouds unleashed their loads in torrents

And the problems they faced in those lands were how to keep dry, and they cried for the blue sky

And the breeze, whispering through the sands

The Horizon clear and wide, no endless realms of rain.



He had a mind that was filled with perplexity and questions

Saying "I could be the One, but he who thinks he's the One, is mad, or a liar, or deluded with lies"

He could find no compromise

But little and by little, he took to walking driven by his need to understand

Wandered far, found himself in a land one misty new day

Where they played a game with what he would say

And all the while, clouds marching across the miles

Were changing visions, and as the thunder peeled he smiled, said

"What gift is there like Rain?"


And what happened to him?

He came round in the end, just like all the rest

In time, he told his story wrapped in rhyme.
