She doesn't talk much out of fear of exposing herself
Consumed by regret and anxiety
But when she has the nerve to speak up to anyone else
It's met by offset hostility
This patchwork quilt of concrete and steel is telling her how to think and to feel
Her mind is not hers anymore
She walks into her room and hides her face within her hands
and silently she dreams of distant lands
Return, cast off your worries and rest
beneath the bright golden leaves
And learn that peace can be found in between
The branches of the Elm tree
Feeling the weight of expectation
Solace found only in dreams
The backlit frame calls her by name revealing her shame and what she could gain
She tries to escape from its hands
Asking God for guidance as a voice now breaks the silence
And once again she dreams of distant lands

The brilliant musicianship or the eloquent, bold compositions alone would make this album a standout. In combination- just, WOW. The benchmark for 2018 is now very, very high. Judy Humphries
An amazing reinterpretations of old Genesis classics. Even "Invisible touch", in my opinion one of the worst songs by Genesis, in this album is a little gem. You can almost imagine Steve Hackett on classical guitar. mario1984
This is late sixties early seventies progressive psychedelic rock. Instrumental with heavy organ play.This has that organic feel that the music from the sixties, seventies had. Smoke a little pot put on the headphones close your eyes and as Mr Dobie Gray said "Get Lost in Your Rock and Roll and Drift Away".
