lost
deep within the void
lies the secret chord
existence
The last cycle ends
the cycle begins
lost
everything is lost
everything is born
existence
The last cycle ends
the cycle begins
lost
everything foretold
eternal return
existence
The last cycle ends
the cycle begins
The last cycle ends
the cycle begins
Muse
(All my little lies
out my mouth, but nevermind
who I was is never who I’ll be
can shadows run?
can shadows breathe?
I know somebody’s watching me
There’s something moving in the trees
now it’s driving up and down my road
glaring with a green-eyes glow
looking like a real-live ghost
now it’s driving up and down my road
glaring with a green-eyes glow
looking like a real-live ghost
‘till somebody shouts
Godzilla!
Following the tracks of your tears
into your phantom house
I could be your Muse
Following the tracks of your tears
into your phantom house
you could be mine too
I’ve been praying all alone
slinging holy water at a lonely ghost
he never seems to let me in
can shadows burn?
can shadows bite?
I know I’m not alone tonight
who they are is never who I see
Following the tracks of your tears
into your phantom house
I could be your Muse
Following the tracks of your tears
into your phantom house
you could be mine too
Uh,I could be your Muse
you could be mine too
Uh,I could be your Muse
Uh,I could be your Muse)
Hiding from the moonlight
falling like the snow
mirrors in your eyes
this song
Everything that’s happened
everything that can
mirrors in your eyes
it’s gone
The last cycle ends
the cycle begins

light in the dark
our eternal fire
dancing in shadow form
the night is ours
in this sacred trance
We are One
light in the dark
our collective mind
in movement channeling
the night is ours
in this ancient dance
We are One
light in the dark
rhythm of the fire
ancestors come to me
by body is yours
in this blessed night
We are One
Blood of my blood
come to me
blood of my blood
take my hand
Blood of my blood
come to me
blood of my blood
far away
far away, far away, run away
run for your life
far away far away
far away, far away, run away
run for your life
Take my hands
take my mind, take my head, take my eyes
I am yours
Take my head
Take my flesh, take my arms, take my soul
I am yours
Take my hands
take my mind, take my head, take my eyes
I am yours
Take my head
Take my flesh, take my arms, take my soul
I am yours

Mori mo iyagaru, Bon kara saki-nya
Yuki mo chiratsuku-shi, Ko mo naku-shi
Bon ga kita-tote, Nani ureshi-karo
Katabira wa nashi, Obi wa nashi
Kono ko you naku, Mori wo ba ijiru
Mori mo ichi-nichi, Yaseru-yara
Hayo-mo yuki-taya, Kono zaisho koete
Mukou ni mieru wa, Oya no uchi
Mukou ni mieru wa, Oya no uchi

Ramund var sig en bedre mand
Om han havde bedre klæder
Dronningen gav hannem klæder på stand
Af blårgarn, bast og læder
Sådant vil jeg ikke ha', sagde Ramund
Sådant står mig ikke bra', sagde Ramund den unge
Ramund gik sig ved salten søstrand
Der så han syv jætter stande
Tager jeg Ramund på min mindste hånd
Og kaster ham langt fra lande
Det gør ikke ene du, sagde Ramund
Komme må I alle syv, sagde Ramund den unge
Ramund tog til sit dyre sværd
Det han kaldte Dymlingen røde
Hug han de jætter syv med én færd
At blodet randt dennem tildøde
Der ligger alle syv, sagde Ramund
Alt står jeg her endnu, sagde Ramund den unge
Ramund tog til sin store kniv
Den han kaldte Dymlingen dyre
Skilte han kejseren ved hans liv
At hovedet fløj femten mile
Jeg mente, den ej bed, sagde Ramund
Dog rinder blodet ned, sagde Ramund den unge

Long ago the balance was lost
and the Ancient Voices were gone
with fire, steel and lies it was done
your only god is profit
Long ago the magic was lost
Nature’s wisdom forever gone
the Time of Men, the Elders foretold
your only god is profit
Open up your eyes
This cycle was never meant to be the last
Open up your eyes
and see what you have done
Open up your eyes
This cycle was never meant to be the last
Open up your eyes
and see what you have done
Feel Nature’s Wrath unleash upon you
it’s the beginning of the End
Burn the Witch
Feel Nature’s Wrath unleash upon you
the culmination of the Plague
Burn the Witch
Burn the Witch
(Open up your eyes
This cycle was never meant to be the last
Open up your eyes
and see what you have done)

If I comprehend the gist of the lyrics right, I’d say there’s probably a lot of folks who’d relate to them now, during the current pandemic, pondering life/death while isolating. I still need to listen to a lot of Phideaux’s catalogue, but my intuition tells me this one will be near the top of my favourite Phideaux albums list when I’m done, if not at the apex. This is a great conceptual prog rock album. I’m late to the party, but better late than never! 8.5+/10.
