Topic: Let's play which band sang this?
Posted: March 14 2014 at 20:49

I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are rainin' down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long, ohoo
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growin' up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I've been lookin' back to find
Where I went wrong

^^I'm a big Queen fan but I couldn't guess it.

My Turn.

"blood within the vein

flooded from the rain

doctor Goose and mother Seuss inhale

filling every fairy tale and every grail"

"I am older than the sky

invincible am I

beyond by far I see

the singularity"

These lyrics come from Discipline's masterpiece Unfolded Like Staircase. I think they are from Into the Dream.

Edit: Found the part in the 7th minute. I take my turn:

Mirror-painted airplanes floating

to some distant fancy-fair

Carrying with them several servants

Lovely ladies of the air

Where you'll be tonight?

Where you'll be tomorrow?

^Your father told me I can stay,
But he mistrusts my unfamiliar ways:
He want's to use the things I've learnt
Six hundred years of knowledge sorely earned.
But if we can stay together,
I don't mind the things he tells me:
Of defending him in mutiny,
I don't care if you're there, I don't care
One the farms they've made a stand,
Against the hated iron hands, they're uniting
They're backed by everyone in town,
And I must ride to beat them down, how they're fighting:

"Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy." LvB

This one may be a hard one, but it was the first lyric that entered into my mind. I doubt if it is as familiar as it looks. I think I start giving hints:

The band or artist is to be found in PA, but you have not reviewed one of their albums.

If only I were a prolific enough reviewer for that to narrow it down. LOL

"Here I am, laying down on my dirty bed,
Well, I lost a friend, in the end
I need a helping hand,
Get me out of here, be my dear,
Far along from the radio,
So I followed you, til the morning dew,
Closed a warm wind, to a shady grave
Where she is, she's by my side,
Don't play too loud, I've got no doubt,
She's leading me home"

it's obscure, so I will give you a hint, it's a German group

The lead vocalist of this Eclectic Prog band stepped down after this album and took place behind the drumkit. His first name is also the name of a book in the Old Testament.
