Did you try to run
Thinking you have somewhere else to go?
When will you be done
And stay right here with me?
There were once the days
In a house of sin and pain,
When there was no place for me
Until one day...
As the knife inside started to shout aloud
The blade gleaming in the dark inside the lifeless house
When I found you then,
You were the one who talked to me
That's when our story began
I thought you could be the one
Did you try to plan for my demise?
My only wish now is to see you cry
Blood will flow out of your hiding place
So come to me, don't be afraid
Did you know it's always night outside?
Stay in our room and don't ever tell a lie
I will be the one to shelter you
My love, you're mine alone
Why are you afraid?
I will protect you from the world
This place is our shade
So I boarded the windows up
Please do not tear it down
I hate to punish you
If I tied you up,
Would you let me hear your sound?
As the hatred in your eyes started to shout aloud
The blade you held in your hand was still far too weak
To me, "Trip The Life Fantastic" was a must-buy on "Bandcamp Friday" this time. It's one of the few "Drifting Sun" albums not already found in my collection, and an essential one, because it marks the beginning of the prolific collaboration of composer/keyboardist Pat Sanders and lyricist/singer Peter Falconer, which was, in my opinion, the best creative pairing the band ever had.

Well, I wouldn't say that the music of "Section IV" defies genres... in my opionion, it belongs to the neo-prog genre without any doubt. But on the other hand, there's nothing wrong with that. The important thing is that the band contributes great new work to the genre, helping to keep it alive. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)

A career-spanning live album from the European experimental rock band, featuring King Crimson's Gavin Harrison on drums. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 27, 2021
Discovered this album by investigating other peoples collections. Its worth getting just for the opening track alone. Such a beautiful melodious song. The whole album is good and well produced a great find. Lush arrangements give it that bit extra.
Fantastic piece of work. Brian White
