lyrics
Shining in the black sky
cast away from paradise
Our sins are calling
now she’s gone, too late to cry
He sent away the archer
on a mission for the good
but the Sun Kings wouldn’t yield
to the fearsome god’s demand
There’s nothing left to hope for
now he’s treading past the point
where no matter what we give
our own fate is set in stone
Washed upon the sands of time
as he gazes from afar
with so much fear in his eyes
Now she lights the sky at night
to warm her lover’s heart
but come the dawn she’ll be gone
He will never walk away
from the demons of his past
and his life slips away
A thousand tears shed from the moon
yet they won’t bring him back
to the heaven they knew
Have you seen the man with the
white beard who’s pulling the strings
on the puppets of the Earth?
Devillish Sun Kings
flooding the place with light
How do you feel? The time is right
Devillish Sun Kings
Shuffling the mortal coil
How do you feel? Back to the night
One sun, two suns, three suns
all gone with pride
Hold on to your dream, lose your life
I want to wake up
when you say we’re fine
Bow down to my will, come alive
One sun, two suns, three suns
all gone with pride
Bow down to my will, come alive
Devillish Sun Kings
flooding the place with light
How do you feel? The time is right
Devillish Sun Kings
Shuffling the mortal coil
How do you feel? Back to the night
Devillish Sun Kings
flooding the place with light
How do you feel? Back to the night
Washed upon the sands of time
as he gazes from afar
with so much fear in his eyes
Now she lights the sky at night
to warm her lover’s heart
but come the dawn she’ll be gone
He will never walk away
from the demons of his past
and his life slips away
A thousand tears shed from the moon
yet they won’t bring him back
to the heaven they knew
Shining in the black sky
cast away from paradise
Our sins are calling
now she’s gone, too late to cry
He sent away the archer
on a mission for the good
but the Sun Kings wouldn’t yield
to the fearsome god’s demand
There’s nothing left to hope for
now he’s treading past the point
where no matter what we give
our own fate is set in stone
Her doomed affair, her tragedy
Shines bright at night, fire in the skies
Her doomed affair, her tragedy
Their sins will call, it’s set in stone
cast away from paradise
Our sins are calling
now she’s gone, too late to cry
He sent away the archer
on a mission for the good
but the Sun Kings wouldn’t yield
to the fearsome god’s demand
There’s nothing left to hope for
now he’s treading past the point
where no matter what we give
our own fate is set in stone
Washed upon the sands of time

To Touch the Sky
by The Emerald Dawnsupported by 62 fans who also own “Frailty”
Wonderful, beautiful, densely layered music. I'm glad I gave this album several headphone listens before commenting. It did not immediately strike a chord with me, but the more I listened the more I began to understand and appreciate how fantastically rich and deep the sound is. For fans of atmospheric and melodic prog, this is an excellent addition. Bass and drum work are exquisite!

The Long Island metal band's third album etches arena-sized hooks into their jagged compositions, deftly balancing experimental and poppy inclinations.
