When Ahrayeph was slated to play its first live concert back in September 22nd of '07, James flew in to attend this 'historic' event. He had done so six months before for a concert of our mutual friends of For Greater Good, the occasion for our first meeting in the flesh. It was at that time that he had texted me the sentence that has now become the second verse in this song's lyric right after the plane had landed. The rest of the lyrics are references to things that happened and will no doubt sound familiar to the people who happened to be there at the time.
lyrics
Roam the skies in Hallowed Light
To see the Brother from another Mother taking Flight
Touch down in a different town
Wide eyes watch, all around
Let’s take a ride under shrouded skies
Reelin’ round the fountain on a Patio : Slappin’’ Time
Let’s get together under city lights
Seven Heavy Devils on a Dark September Night
Broken Heart and the Biggest of Si’s
Drinking till a woman runs screaming into the Night
Take another round through the Heart of the Dawn
Riding out the Storm till the morning comes along
Roam around in a different town
Senses wide, drinkin’ in new sounds
Captured in the Moment of this 22nd Movement
Raptured by the Tribute of a Summer that will Never Land
Prog, Goth, Rock, something music-y. Definitely dark. Dark is good. If you like dark music with the odd odd time signatures thrown in with the melancholy, this is your place to be.
