about

We are celebrating this year's Samhain with a new
release and this particular track is a perfect fit to do so.
It is dedicated to the human spirit breaking away from
the material plane with pride. Drawing inspiration also
from the Greek myth of Icarus, we go against its
traditional interpretation of hubris. The spirit's
ambitious and fiery flight towards the Sun is it's one
and only destiny.

lyrics

Entering dreamtime
Here's a velvet dream to hold on tight to
And drift away, and to the body say goodbye
Around the heart no more barbed-wire

Let the spirit fly
With the earth it has no tie
Let the spirit fly
High to the sky
Let the spirit fly

And if for greater glory it yearns
Closer to the sky as it gets

And if the extension of your heart
Gets too high close to the sun
That is what is made for
So let it go, let it burn

No more heart tears, leaving this world behind
No more heart tears, no more shackles around the mind
No more heart tears, wrap all your troubles in dreams
No more heart tears, slash your wrist and the spirit is pleased
