Lethe Wings

Lethe Wings  -  Pan Thistle, 2018 

In the darkest depths, Lo Manthang caves
The ghost of ages lost in a daze
Clouds of illusion dance in waves
Fire and water

Let there be Light
Stories of light on the red plateau

Over the Himalaya
Air is thin
Standing at the end
Lethe Winds
Precipice in life
Truth lies within
Standing at the end
Lethe Wings

Wandering monk, keeping the faith
Paul had a dream, Peter had a blade
Going with the wind, anywhere is home
No matter the people, weather or alone

The posturing of kings, the craftiness of thieves
if and might have been a tyrant or a creep
Forbidden thoughts and Thought Police crumble instantly
Aimless Days

Lethe Winds
Lethe Wings

A reflection of the moonlit spring
Who's there? Nobody, no title or name
but I see your horse is tired, your face looks drawn...
Need fresh water, fill your flask for the road
There's a wedding in the village Lo
New life, new hope, promise of a better world
And more...
Stories of Light

They are selling again The same Patent Fake concern They drive me round the bend   Weathering vessel caught in a storm - with no end We are unable to hold a course - Captain Where? Lightning stabs out of dark clouds - boiling overhead And I'm losing control again   Fine Nereides ...

Full Empty

Full Empty  -  Pan Thistle, 2015          music video * based on the novel "Roadside Picnic" by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky, 1971 The china bowl preyed on your mind a wild flame in your heart The car tossed and turned onto Western Highway the dummy tank full of swag The air turned hard let the blood drip down your marble face and drop by the outpost where the Blues hug the fireplace Were it just the greenbacks, a death-defying legend, noble cause or treason? The same voice, the evening rain Casual dreamer - falling down again Everyday schemer - freedom on a verse Caught inside your web, you bend the rules Blind faith dealer "Millions upon millions of people knew nothing! It was what they wanted! To know nothing and.. even if they found out, they'd probably ooh and aah for five minutes.. then go back to their own routines" Casual dreamer Everyday schemer Caught inside this magnetic trap "so-so" dealer Pull back the night - got to k...
