lyrics

A wall, a blockade, a barrier, and a shell
Protection from the outside,
Or a retainer for within
Silence can serve many purposes
Some are easy, some are hard,
Some are necessary to survive

This particular wall
Is for a greater good
I must remind myself
When I'm doubting if I should

It's not a wall of spite
It's not a wall of hate
It's a wall needed to respect
Those things which should be separate

The blurry boundaries, once bountiful
Led to disputes immutable
The only way to preserve the peace
Was to force all ties to cease

A dangerous thought enters my mind
What if I were to cross the divide?
To sneak across, clandestinely
The temptation sings soft and seductively

I must resist the urge to search
For a crack, a hole, a lofty perch
I mustn't betray my personal vow
To compromise my fidelity, I will not allow

Some day the day will will come
To start tearing down this wall
But that day will only come to me
When I've surrendered to it my all

Only then will this great wall
Begin to break apart
Then the veil of silence
May soon be lifted from my heart

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper
