Reaping

As black as pitch as dead as Dreams your innocence
To take the only breath that’s left and make it scream
Of your wasted light and blind foresight
Over the line were compromised
You hurl yourself over the edge
Where’s your mind?
Domestication... isn’t it making you dumb?
To reap your one and only start
To rip your family apart
To wage a war... on your mind
Domestication... isn’t it dumbing you down?
Feed the buck to the wolf
Feed the buck to the wolf
To the wolf

We Can See beauty where there’s so much ugliness...
Maybe I’m too blind to see the light you’re shining home
Maybe I’m too cold to feel the warmth you’re givin’ to your dead religion
In a place we all call home you feed it fear
Shame on a good thing comin’
We Can See beauty where there’s so much ugliness
This is the last time that we turn and run away from lovin’ our mistakes
Maybe I maybe I maybe I...
Holy hands and feeble minds preach Psycho surgery
Make it right and put an end to the ancient slave of love and livin’
In a place we all call home you feed it fear
Shame on a good thing comin’
We Can See beauty where there’s so much ugliness
This is the last time that we turn and run away from lovin’ our mistakes

Songs in my head tell me best where to go in this life
Dance with the moonrise and drift away
I'm telling you, you'll take a little...you'll learn a lot...feel even more
I feel angels kiss my skin
Demons rest within
Can't hurt me
I feel angels kiss my skin
Demons rest within
Can't hurt me
God he once said, "Be weary of strangers, they keep getting stranger"
Dance with the sunrise and drift away
I'm tellin' you, you'll take a little...you'll learn a lot...feel even more
I feel angels kiss my skin
Demons rest within
Can't hurt me
I feel angels kiss my skin
Demons rest within
Can't hurt me

Celebrate your mother
Lock her in the cupboard
Celebrate Durin’s Day
We will pray together
We wanna-be-wanna-be-wanna-be rid of it now... right now
Hey, what you doin’ over there?
With that wind in your hair
You hide the eyes behind the mind
Oh! When you whisper will it fall on deaf ears?
With all access to queers who hide the Son behind the shine... and they say
“Celebrate your Durin’s Day... we will prey together”
Together forever
Together forever
Together forever
Aaahhh!
Celebrate your mother
Lock her in the cupboard
Celebrate Durin’s Day
We will pray together

... and so it starts
Never take me too far
Never mind the winter’s stare my dear
The fire is eating at our darkest vices
And this is how it ends... mother...
Father wasn’t here
Hasn’t been around for better care
Still I’m holding onto fading years
With time to rest in...
Fire
Burning in
Still thinking
Of losing you
Standing on your hill with all this lack
Pick up your heart and run
You’re just another thinker
Just another victim of...
The selfless one in space
Not to toil in his wicked ways
As surrendered in death and life
And you can’t shut it off
And why would you want to?
Father work through me
Heal this land and set it free
Share your whisper with a heart alive
With time to rest in...
Fire
Burning in
Still thinking
Of losing you
I don’t know stories told but I’m still dreaming of losing you
Standing on your hill with all this lack
Pick up your heart and run
You’re just another thinker
Just another victim of...
Haw-y-ya
Uh-na
Ni-na-na
Nah-nah-uh-uh
New-oo-oo-oo
Haw-y-ya
Uh-na
Ni-na-na
Nah-nah-ah-ah
New-oo-oo-oo
Oh
Haw-yi
Yaw-yaw-yaw
Nah-ni-nah-nah
Ni-nah
Nah-ah-ah
Ooh
Yeah... yeah... yeah
Oh!

We bring intention in the silent language
We bring intention with imagination
We bring intention in the silent language
We bring intention with our dreams and beliefs...
Fire
Burning in
Still thinking
Of losing you
I don’t know stories told
But I’m...
Still dreaming of losing you
Standing on your hill with all this lack
Pick up your heart and run
You’re just another thinker
Just another victim of... love
Never take me too far
Never mind the winter’s stare my dear
The fire is eating at our darkest vices
This is how is ends... mother...
Father work through me
Heal this land and set it free
Share your whisper with a heart alive
With time...
In the fire...
It burns my skin...
But I’m still...
I’m still thinking...

Even when you close your beautiful eye
You feel compromise for your cover up that all Love is gone now
Blame it on your change in the weather
Never be together forever when all love is gone now...
She wants Love
To cover up
Blame it on another one
You take the lie
A twisted lie
You fold like a foil
In yeah
You suck the love out of my anger with your SMILE
Use it on another fool...
Here they come to change their minds
Any given time be it day or night ‘cause all love is gone now
Here we’ve fallen for gold
Our angels are bought and then sold for their youth
Ticking away like the time does...
Until it stops
She wants love
To cover up
Blame it on another one
You take the lie
A twisted lie
You fold like a foil
In yeah
You suck the love outta my anger with your SMILE
And use it on another fool...
Here we’ve fallen for gold
Angels are bought and then sold for their youth
Ticking away like the time does...
Love
Love
Love

Now you’re taking it all away
With your wrecking ball n’ chain
Forgiveness for sale
When you rise I fall
Now you’re taking it all away
We rise and fall
Forgive my call
It’s way too long
Now you’re taking it all away
With you’re wrecking ball n’ chain
Forgiveness for sale
When you rise I fall
Now you’re taking it all away
We rise and fall
Forgive my call
A raven’s song
Ooh...
This baggage hand-cuffed to our wrist
We drag it where we go
It’s my ball and chain
Break your ball and change
And light conquers all...
Who do you thank at the end of days?
Swingin’ wrecking ball and chain
System for sale
Aahh...
Don’t want any fame
We play harder than the rest
So sick of the game and playing so close to my chest
In debt to your world
Your papers are better than him
Don’t study your bible no
It’s plain empathy
It’s plain empathy
Any fool can see
That it’s bringing you down
Now you’re taking it all away
With your wrecking ball and chain around the neck of empathy
Any fool can sing
A raven’s song
A raven’s song
This baggage hand-cuffed to our wrist
We drag it where we go
It’s my ball and chain
Break your ball and change
This baggage hand-cuffed to our wrist
We drag it where we go
It’s my ball and chain
Break your ball and change
It’s a ball and chain kind of world after all
And light conquers all
Light Conquers All
Light Conquers All
Light Conquers All

Applause Of A Distant Crowd

Perhaps a softer, more “pop-forward” album compared to Inmazes and Witness however equally as effective. Vola simply know how to make approachable and great music. 8/10

Every track shows the tremendous talents of all four members. What makes this album so good to me is each song has its own groove and the songs are the kind that make you want to sing along. This album for me is the modern day AC/DC "Back in Black or Guns n Roses Appetite for Destruction. An instant classic. You guys Rock!!!
