I watch them roll and burn
They wait for your return
Falling from their eyes
Gazing at the skies
Falling like stars
Falling like stars
I watch their rise and fall
(We freeze like stones as we hit the ground)
The light connects us all
(We dare not breathe or make a sound)
Reflected in our eyes
(Our stillness is our sole defence)
The Devil in disguise
Lest we fall in every sense
Falling like stars
Falling like stars
Falling like stars
Falling like stars
This is no place for hope
This is no place for faith
This is no place for love
No matter what you hear
No matter what they tell you
This is no place for glory
And this is how we feel
As we ride this storm of steel
There's nothing to be gained
Nothing to be saved that could be worth any of this
If you ever get this note
From the pocket of my coat
I'll have put down my gun
The peace of the done
The first official outing of the "what would be" Steve Rothery Band. Riccardo Romano was missing with his keyboard wizardry and no singer at all (later Martin Jakubsky of Stillmarillion). Marillion's catalogue was represented by excerpts of instrumental sections where Steve had his solo spot. This is a milestone in the forming of a great band that later became the spokesman of early Marillion era and of course of Steve's solo material. If you want to hear how it all started you have to get this Alessandro Carmassi
