on an icy land
the ones were lost
never to be seen again

in a frightening world
there's a mirror of your heart
there's a baring of your soul

and on this world
we hide
behind our funny rocks
making our funny faces

the sky falls

as the world warms
we find the feelings lost
show them once again

it's a world on which they hide
a world

behind the funny rocks
we make our funny faces
show off a hidden feeling
hide the other feelings

as the sky falls
the crescents cut a swath
they show our funny feelings
etched on our funny rocks

It may be just another Thursday to you, but to the crew today marks the day we finally reach the Structure. Our journey is far from being over, though.

This track is based on a repeated 3/4 phrase that doesn't change apart from dynamics. The rest of the track is built around that featuring big choirs and pads, also playing mostly drone based material, and a string section with a 4 chord sequence, which is accented by the bass and bass piano line. There is also some techno like drums for movement, some wind based stuff out of noise channels and a vibrant solo halfway through just to keep things exciting whilst not loosing the feel. Took me a while to perfect this one, but overall i think it's a really neat idea. Hope you enjoy!

Arches

Glacial Erosions tearing up the landscape

Ice

Ice

Tearing up everything

Droplets seaping in the cracks

Ice forms

expanding

[verse]

Galloping with speed, riding on his steed

Toward the mountains, filled with ease under a dark sky

Though the ships prepare, scanning here and there

That old horse intuits a path through the long night

 

Stomp against the stone, they are not alone

But the vehicles they near-miss both their shadows

Making due, their life must pursue, it true

and the time they have on this world has diminished

 

[chorus]

On their own in barren land, visitors have sought the man

Fewer choices are at hand, so there's not much else, but seek the hills

Forget diplomacy, when they're after you, and see

Have to hide away tonight, your companion leads they way with sight

 

[verse]

Baffled by the end, caught within a net

All the effort spent is gone in just an instant

They might find a way, out from this someday

When the astronauts comprehend all their missteps

guess the show it is about

This is our world. Your rule means nothing here.
