The Sea

When all hope is gone with the winds of timelessness
There’s nothing within, just another empty shell
Washed ashore by the raging sea, emotionless,
The overused mask of sadness and laughter fell
When all faith is gone with the call of senselessness
The dream lingers on in the carcass of reason
Tideswept back into the stormy sea fathomless
To drown the clearest evidence of treason
When all love is gone with the promise of harmlessness
The struggle keeps going between being and living
Devoured by the open jaws of a seamonster merciless
Looking for someone with no means of surviving
An actor for a lifetime, a failure at birth, an easy prey
A saint and a sinner, an earthenware soldier in grey
Your voice resounds orders in my obedient ears
Your eyes in my eyes reflect crystal droplets of tears
But how can you tell sea water from tears?
Is the origin of the ocean the human fear?

Come along my friend, and take my hand
There is a place in time called Winterland
Have no fear, I’ll just show you around
Please, won’t you look at what I’ve found?
My Winterland
Winterland
You will go as you have come
Consumed by thoughts of frozen love
In Winterland there shines no sun
Just grey and heavy clouds above
Please, won’t you follow me down?
To my Winterland
Eternal Winterland
The snowflakes fall into my soul
But they won’t melt for it is dead
And lying cold, no signs foretold
When we were friends,
How it would end...

Take me to where war was never seen
where man has never been
a sacred place I dream to reach
when life is done there is no sun
as we have used to think before
and love is almost gone
with the final gasp for breath
when I have to face my death
I wish someone could come and take me
to where flowers have never wilted
where no mortal is found guilty
of the birth his loving mother gave him
Is it true there’s no way out but agony?
Is it true life’s just a bitter parody?
Of the dreams I’ve never touched or reached
living sinfully on this planet in the universe
because I received the birth
my mother Earth
had given me
For sure I will return myself to thee
and now I’m leaving here
where life was led away
and cruelty portrayed
by passers-by who saw my crying eyes
through eyes filled with ice
the time has come to roll the dice...

Untouchable, desirable
On the north side of the sky
A light in the dark
My star
Only a cry away
Out in the space
Embraced by the night
My star is blind
Shows me the way
The way to escape
Out of the night and into the night
And out of the night and into the night
My star
Is out of reach
My star
There’s one for each
Untouchable, desirable
A new day is born
Another hope forlorn
Another death to mourn
On a blue summer morn
My star is gone
And I’m left alone
Sunlight torn
I want to go home
Into the night out of the night
And into the night and out of the night
My star
I loved your cold stare
My star
I’m afraid of the day
So many words are left unsaid
A sackful of letters unread
Daylight uncovers things that I dread
Daylight buries all that I dreamt
My star
Where are you now?
My star
Untouchable, desirable
I wonder, my star,
Who’s touching you now?

Rise above the tiresome routine
Spread your lips and say a little ‘cheese’
‘Cos happiness is luxury you can get for free
Though the way things are they’re never meant to be
Try to break away from sorrow
For what is time? and would you borrow
A few days more when asked to follow
To where angels fly, and sparrows
Lay your problems down to rest
For life is just a board of chess
A black spot here, a white one there
With queens of circumstances to beware
Trust yourself and good old skies above
Fill the cup with soothing love
Turn from a black sheep to a dove
And of this life you’ll never have enough.
You don’t have to be too smart
To realise when there’s a rainfall in your heart
There must be sunshine coming up
That’s what the earthly rule’s about

Human Factor "Homo Universum"

Easily some of the best prog music released this year - each track is a deep, mystifying progression of sound that combine to form an excellent prog rock record. Not once is the album's quality or composition sacrificed for technicality, as so many other groups do. Well done, please keep up the great music! Thank you--
