MYTHLORIA
(c) 2009.


The woods of Avalon are felled
Their joys no more resound
'cross all the blind and toiling world
In chains of Reason bound
Yet beneath lone sentinels
The Dreamers gaze afar
And sow the seeds of Arcady
Reborn under the stars

Silver horns
Trumpet the Dawn
Alight on gilded shields
Ancient citadel rising high
Battle standards upon the field

I feel the wind come sweeping from groves of old
I hear elder voices whisper to me of tales untold
Mariners on lost oceans I behold
Fabled legions leading charges bold
Ne'er retreating
Blessed isles rise from otherworldly seas
Under newly imagined skies realms beyond the reach of time come to be

I see the silver light of stars that were ancient ere Man was made
I hear the hooves of the hunt thundering in the hidden glade
Weary children of Babylon
Hearken to us now
Within you sleep unkindled fires; healing songs of leaf and bow
Come, clothe yourselves in rainment adorned
With gems of spirit and mind
Sail with us in ships of wonder across the gulfs of time

All harmonies
Are born of the one melody
Golden leaves on the silver tree
All rivers weave
Paths that lead back to the sea
All you need do is believe

I see twin moons shining above a circle of standing stones
I hear distant worlds singing out their remote, unearthly tones
Wayward travelers,
Heartily we call you home
Wander not unlighted paths despairing and alone
For here are poets lordly; the music makers forever mighty kings
And within the deathless Hall their songs we will forever sing

great sounding guitars(and bass!) and enviable production, i'm sure it was a nightmare to record.

[Denim n Leather]

Thanks! :)

Not really a nightmare to record; the song plays itself now and that was essentially captured live.

It was a nightmare to mix, however!

EDIT:  whoops, wrong thread!

[gordiji]

The breakdown is really cool, the distorted guitars coming in after the cleans is just huge.
