lyrics
Was it all a lie?
A Haze of illusions?
Maya's Veil clouded my sight
Wrapped my sweet fable
(sure I had a bright life)
Oh, my broken fable
(realized I had only ash)
But now my dreams are wiped away
The Veil of Maya is ripped
"It seems to be so long ago
It doesn't even belong to me anymore;
The memory of a life I lived
Blind among the blind ones.
I was bewitched by the trick of life,
Numbed by a semblance of perfection.
My soul and heart were filled with hopes,
Days were enlightened by a misleading light"
A Haze of illusions?
Maya's Veil clouded my sight
Wrapped my sweet fable
(sure I had a bright life)
Oh, my broken fable
(realized I had only ash)
But now my dreams are wiped away
The Veil of Maya is ripped
"It seems to be so long ago
It doesn't even belong to me anymore;
The memory of a life I lived
Blind among the blind ones.
I was bewitched by the trick of life,
Numbed by a semblance of perfection.
My soul and heart were filled with hopes,
Days were enlightened by a misleading light"

This is probably the last - and in my opinion the best - album recorded by "Crowned in Earth". Originally, this has been an epic doom metal band, but leader Kevin Lawry decided to move on into other musical realms, and the heavily psychedelic magnum opus "Metempsychosis" can be regarded as his first step on the way, which eventually led to two superb solo albums so far, named "The Shadows Stole The Dawn" (2016), and "The Journey Of Regret" (2018). Kevin Lawry is one of those good guys in prog, which we can expect still many pleasant surprises from.
