"One of these days, I will be gone
For how long, I do not care
I'll walk the Earth for wisdom
Follow the rainbows, anywhere"
There was a lonely shepherd
Taking care of his own fields
He knew nothing about the world
He didn't need any changes
But soon his peace became chaos
He heard a voice calling for him
Late at night, within a dream
A silent scream, a mighty force
He knew his path would finally
Take him somewhere beyond the sea
So at once he went alone
Doubtless, he left his sleeping home

"Alone on the path to freedom
For no one can take you there
And I know the day will come
When I'll walk into the air"
He looked at maps and wondered
What lay beyond their edges
He walked many roads, and wandered
Always glad, never worried
He wandered but wasn't lost
Trying to find a tree or stream
That only he had ever seen
In all the lands that could be crossed
Off on the road sometimes he
Stopped by to watch and see
Beauty kept within the storm
Only seen when far from home

"See what the path has now become
It is more than I can bear
In the end only seldom
Have I breathed a different air"
One morning the call he had heard
Changed her voice, was no more his
Up in the sky flew no more birds
The sun was veiled with mysteries
For wandering has its own cost
When no heat came from no sun beam
When no river could wash him clean
He felt his soul filled up with frost
Off on the road sometimes he
Begged for a place, down on his knee
A warm place made out of stone
A safe place which is called home

“Her voice was nothing but venom
My dreams mocked me like a flare
I leapt into the maelstrom
Found home is nowhere”
There was a weary traveler
Struggling to deal with his own deeds
Not much he learnt about the world
And he went back to the cities
No love he found beneath the rust
Lost in a crowd he found obscene
Disbodied shadow, he lay unseen
Aching to burn it all to dust
He knew his path would endlessly
Drag him down deep beneath the sea
Rot and death gnawing his bones
Torn from the place he once called home

"Finally the time has come
Never again will I despair
These songs I shall forever hum
Sailing the Stars, everywhere"
Stranded on an old forgotten shore
He lost himself in an idea
And so again he walked out the door
Followed once more the voice in the wind
Soon shunted by her gentle effort
His dream faded amidst the stream
Awakened he stood, staring at the sheen
Deep down he felt a newborn force
And in the end, facing the sea
He unearthed the mystery
The very place between his bones
This inner place he could call home

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+...
