This quote reminds me of the Sarangrave from TWL (which I am currently reading): And something warm and soft just passed through here It took the precious things that I hold dearer It rifled through the grey and disappeared The creeping darkness makes the small hours clearer --Deadwing by Porcupine ...

Russia On Ice - Porcupine Tree

Ever had the feeling you've been here before? Drinking down the poison the way you were taught Every thought from here on in your life begins and all you knew was wrong? Arriving somewhere but not here. All my designs simplified And all of my plans compromised All of my dreams sacrificed Did you see...

I like the song where the singer got it wrong..... You can choose a ready guide In some celestial voice If you choose not to decide You still have made a choice That's from 'Freewill' off the 'Permanent Waves' album by Rush. That's the lyric I hear, and certainly the lyric Geddy sings, but IIRC, wh...

Prodigal - Porcupine Tree I don't know whose side I'm on I don't think that I belong round here If I left the stage would that be wrong ? I tried to find myself a better way I got religion but I went astray They took my money and I lost my faith Rain keeps crawling down the glass The good times neve...

I have memory and awareness But I have no shape or form As a disembodied spirit I am dead and yet unborn I have passed into Olympus As was told in tales of old To the city of Immortals Marble white and purest gold I see the Gods in battle rage on high Thunderbolts across the sky I cannot move, I can...

Love your moniker. Any reference to a certain rock band?

The Leper Affinity by Opeth We entered Winter once again Naked, freezing from my breath Neath the lid all limbs tucked away This coffin is your abode from now and onwards Your body is mine to avail Such a tragic sight you are Slave under my creed Spurring me with those tears I am beyond death Midst...

The Grand Conjuration by Opeth Majesty Faithful me Pour yourself Into me Wield your power Martyr's price Stare me down To the ground The eyes of the devil Fixed on his sinners Slake my thirst Eternal wealth Heathen key Round my neck This poetry Our blasphemy Know the sounds Of infamy The hands of S...

I'll see you at the Weighing-In, when your life's sum-total's made and you set your wealth in Godly deeds against the sins you've laid. And you place your final burden on your hard-pressed next of kin: Send the chamber-pot back down the line to be filled up again. And the hard-headed miracle worker ...

Stand and fight we do consider Reminded of an inner pact between us Thats seen as we go And ride there In motion To fields in debts of honour defending Stand the marchers soaring talons Peaceful lives will not deliver freedom Fighting we know, Destroy oppression The point to reaction As leaders look...

The cattle quietly grazing at the grass down by the river where the swelling mountain water moves onward to the sea: the builder of the castles renews the age-old purpose and contemplates the milking girl whose offer is his need. The young men of the household have all gone into service and are not ...

Inertiatic ESP Now I'm lost last night I heard lepors flinch like birth defects it's musk was fecal in origin as the words dribbled off of its chin it said I'm lost I'm lost now I'm lost dolls wreck the minced meat of pupils cast in oblong arms length the hooks have been picking their scabs where w...

I'm in.

Thank you for your friendly welcome tjtull: oh, you lived near K-Town? But I fear, you missed a trip to France, which is only some kilometers away. :) You are correct Ramen. I didn't go to France when I was stationed at Ramstein. Sadly, I was a poor US military member at that time and didn't have m...

One of my all time favorite passages from a VERY long song. Anyone care to venture a guess without the aid of a search engine? Colors I've none -- dark or light, red, white or blue. Cold is my touch (freezing). Summoned by name -- I am the overseer over you. Given this command to watch o'er our mise...

I saw The Australian Pink Floyd show a week ago in St. Louis. Excellent show and I've seen them 3 times now. They are a MUST SEE for all Pink Floyd fans.

I love that song--I've posted it twice on this thread. Once with Standing On Higher Ground by The Alan Parsons Project (of whom, btw, I saw with Yes at the Paolo Soleri Amphitheter in '99). Sorry to have posted it a third time. I guess I should have read the entire thread...however, 78 pages is a l...
