Insight:

A 4th century dissident locked in a dungeon keeps his will to survive only by the thought of a life with Hypatia. Gary is back, playing most of the rhythm guitar and some lead. Jack plays most of the lead, and some of the rhythm...just the way things happened to work out.

Lyrics
copyright H. Tarnecky

chains can not hold me… though binding the flesh
as was before my heart was blessed
inside these walls… time runs slow
will martyrdom… release my soul … to her

stark… the stench… intense
a dungeon hell no pretense
fix my will and pray
i… will not waste here away

jailed my cause unjust
so said the lords among us
dared by freedom’s taste
i lie here cold in hunger, awake

dissident in agony… a dream diverts my mind
suddenly imagining… her body next to mine

she comes… inviting
she comes… exciting
she comes… like lightning…
she comes

(instrumental break)

SHE

i love her very very much
and conjure visions that we touch
imprisonment insanity
so goes this tragedy for me

scenes pass… dreams fade… a cold reality remains

hopeless… too late… to wonder what she’d say

oh girl… what if… i hold you … and keep you laughing
oh girl… what if… i told you … love’s everlasting

when occasions come that i don’t understand
that i can’t comprehend
i lift my gaze to her appealing…
one glimpse supplies my mortal need
then i think upon the beauty in her face…
the wonder of her grace

i hope she’s waiting….
where fate is saving…
a space divine should i go free

oh… does she see me… like… i see her
no… say her eyes in sympathy … down in me deep
she can conceive a blade of light… cut through the cracks…and illumine herself

she was the only
love can be lonely
how can i learn to live this way

chains can not hold me
time may disown me
why should i breath another day

to live and then to die
the heart unsatisfied
when will this ever end i fear

i laugh and then i cry
the spark inside the eye
holds me inside this lucid dream

she was the only
one that could show me
love can go on beyond this sphere….

she comes
oh lord she comes
yea… she comes
she comes…
she comes to comfort me… she
she is my light

Awesome ambiance swell and with dynamic guitar pickin progression as the voice attacks the verse intro...off beat accents work well with the story emphasis laid into those lyrics ....the double up low part is impactive and catches you off guard and the bridge foundation change up is very effective and very impressive solo passage interwoven all together with contrasting voices and tempos. The build up with the haunting back-chorus-vocal harmonies is very effective...very inventive, fresh, unique indie, progressive song well arranged with very contrasting ideas contrasting the basic musical themes woven upon. A learning experience for non-classical or progressive listeners... professionally given to them to enjoy and amaze upon... Thanks for sharing your talents and letting us listen.
