about

The centerpiece of the album "Jorm is a world". A multi-part epic which welcomes us to a world on its own, totally on par with the very basics of existence with no room for supernatural gibberish. It's just that some prefer to "persist a tale".

lyrics

I: REASONS LIFE

The sky is falling down, turning tides for none to see
There is no other side to besiege and watch them flee
The prophecy in hand in its universal aim
When everyone is gone, who will stand and take the blame?

For just one moment of secret held revolving schemes
It's clear within the view of enlightened mind esteem
The silent master rears every time a fate is born
And over yonder some alive and well and mourning the refugee
Held down by commonly prized feet
Marching the pace but still out of trace
Convinced to preserve the haze

Down with the rain, was it someone there
To oversee creation at the drawing secretaire
Had the trees not been to manifest arrival
Of allurement sin despair
Get on with the leaves and take away the reason
Why the time would let us stay
Raise an eye or keep descend into belief

Once all the threads were drawn
Up to the distant dawn
Rising needs to hand over strength to discover
a view upon the earthbound seeds of life
Stired the eyes into the sky
Made all visions glow and thrive


II: KATHARSIS

Marooned upon the earth with a fretful discontent
Pursuing images of a leader heaven sent
All wrongdoings of man lie within the circumstance
His mighty plan assigned through his fathomless design

Yet everyone in need, who fell over in proceed
To raise a light on all that was still to be concieved
They sorely hated fear, and they hated fear too much
To let it seek revenge on their cleansing matter

Down on earth the wills would cost high numbers lost
when the myth ascend off hand
For each one for whom the master brings the storm
one quest for truth and love is gone

Wait till the morning comes, leaving you all alone
Tied down in dreams of a room with views of creation
All we can rely on is at hand
If we never reach that high
Time to give our sense a try


III: HANDS DOWN AND A WORLD IN FLAMES

Once in the way of the altar that blames
Fragile wit, absent patience
in a world denied its views
The truce is called off as the fire is reaching out
for the unblessed mind of doubt

Frauds so serene in the drafts so sublime
By the guards of denial flames have never reached so high
Faith in bloodshed are prevailed in the dust you preach
Divine measures out of reach

World in fire reaching out
for the unblessed mind of doubt


IV: MAKING HISTORY

The ones within belief getting used to fear their act
The reasoning is high, way beyond all chance to grasp
When finally it's done and the seas all have been drained
Then all the gates of doom will be slamming shut

First in the name of proceeding
Making history and feeding minds
An age of raping life
Then in deep regret all meaning has been thrown into a being of good intent
If the saviours would descend from higher ground
They sure won't let us stay
We got earth to dwell though persisting a tale

Hell fires don't care for pleas
Smoke rising high in the skyline
Shrinking our eyesight, evoking our worst fright
Led to make believe in high ideals
before the take on human deals
It's found within these walls of fears
Noone's certain for how long
People can be reckoned strong
After all the fates are down to one and all
