lyrics

You were just a young man
Working an escape plan
Looking for some freedom
You had to flee them
In your own time frame
Hop onto an airplane
You could no longer wait
Trust it to the fates
TransWorld airlines
Not following a straight line
Flying from your father
You had to be like water

Don't look at the finger
Don't try to control it, 'cause there's nowhere you can hold it
Just follow the tide out let the fates decide your ride out
And sail
Don't try to steer it, 'cause you don't need to fear it
Let the moment take you, because time will not forsake you
Boiling ice will give you what you need

I was just a young man
Escaping from my own jam
Burning down a building
A life unfulfilling
Made it to the outside
Dried up the tears I cried
Gave up the plans I made
Trust it to the Way
Best move every made
Trust my life to the Fates
And I know it must be true
I was made like you

"The harder they come" means the harder ones will fall
Best decisions we make are written on the wall
Read the signs
Do what they say
Close your eyes and find a way
Every river flows into the sea

Combining shredding, nut-punching riffs from dual guitars with a seismic rhythm section forged in the molten core of the Earth, the Gnome will take you on a brain-melting odyssey to rock Valhalla. ... more

I imagine this being found as a dusty, black labeled test pressing, smelling of bongwater and dried blood... They warp a Neil Young song brilliantly (I think he would approve). And I could see “Children Of The Sun” on the back end of Volume 4. Brian Parker

Interesting concept set to a dynamic array of fuzzy stoner doom. Catchy riffs and rhythms morph between subgenres. I dig it. Colin M.
