lyrics

As you approach the gates
You spy the feline beast
Guarding the maze
She rises to her feet

“Traveler
You have come a long way!
Your trials
Have led you to this day

Answer all my questions
And tell me no lies
There is just one answer
Between you and your prize

Listen closely
For I do not repeat
Your riddle is as follows
Divined by prophecy:

‘I am in every living thing
You all have one of me
I am the cause
Of grief and strife
But can also give relief
Without me you’d only be a pile of flesh
And with me
You are cursed
Doomed to relive all your past mistakes
And immortalize your worst,’

Answer all my questions
And tell me no lies
There is just one answer
Between you and your prize.”

For a while you ponder
As you look up to the sky
Knowing that goddamn answer
Is right between your eyes

This is the bands last release and boy did they deliver.Someone used the word stunning to describe the music.Hard at times yet that cello what a beautiful instrument. It can make the hardest song soft.As always an honour to support fellow Canadians, thank you for making this world a better place for a little while as when listening i leave this shit hole world behind for a short while. lloydd
