lyrics

HOPELESSNESS

I telephone
The radio
There’s a stranger listening
Try to open up
There’s so little time
And I’m on my own again

Love is so far away
It cannot even be, no way I can believe there is hope or meaning
I’ll face another day
Some twenty senseless hours in the rain
Take my pain

The hopelessness I’m drowning in
So at loss I don’t know where to begin
It’s got me feeling so ashamed
And I can’t put to words how much I’m drained
Desperate for just one thing to hold on to
It’s getting late
And all this weight upon my shoulders pushing down
Darkness won’t wait
Soon surrounding me

An empty street
Wish I could sleep
I can hear them singing
So full of joy
And friendly warmth
Man how I just wish they’d care

Life just feels miles away
Not close to what it was, I’m stranded they say it’s because of my condition
I can still hear them sing
There must be something more beyond the rain
Please take this pain

Forsaken Innocence
by Drifting Sun

supported by 8 fans who also own “Hopelessness”

Soothfully a phenomenal prog rock album—an instant classic. What motivates me to say so, is the music’s incredible expressiveness & its wonderfully cinematic song structures. Jargon is a very good fit with this band. It is quite evident that the band’s current lineup have great chemistry together & that they share a common affinity to this vein of music. I look forward to their next creation. Drifting Sun are definitely one of prog rock’s brightest lights. Thank you, DS! 9+/10. Alrihkh

Unidentified Dying Objects
by Argos

As a Peter Hammill Fan I can only love this. Don’t get me wrong, this ain’t just a copy. The songs are very individual, but they still have that PH Flair. The jazzy inclusions takes it even further away from that, while the vocals brings it back again . But it all fits very well together. Great album 👍 Boris Stalf

Land of Shadows
by The Gift

Billed as the masters of symphonic prog this album is an interesting of styles and influences. Folky in parts, rocky in others. Vocals are good and male for a change. Both lyrics and music are involving and all in all this album is a good listen. I will be looking at The Gift's other offerings. Russell Whyman
