alsetalokin I first heard Odd Logic on ISKC Prog Rock Radio -- the song was "The Yearning", and it immediately stirred up a warm and reflecting mood. A little while later, "Effigy" played, and it immediately was purchased! (btw, Sean...I wanted to buy the CD online, but it was already back-ordered. We'll keep an eye out for it).

Track 1 from Odd Logic_Effigy

lyrics

Here we've come to see you burn, in this pile of stone
Light the sky, the ritual complete again
Embers rise beneath our feet, with vengeful eyes we see
One more day high above your effigy

I've been away for a long long time
Up in the clouds there's a place of mine
From mechanical chairs I watch the show
The spinning of gears keeping time below

Moving around in sunrise red
The things that I've found shouldn't be here yet
Feeling alive in a higher place
Confidence burns at a record pace

Breathing in the power, I remember when
I was bleeding out, losing hope within

[Oh great spirit of the woods] Then the leshy found me
[Change my shape I knew you would] In the woods that night
[Oh great spirit of the woods] Lending power upon me
[Make me king I know you could] Soon I took to flight

To the iron skyline, far beyond my dreams
I controlled the new world, invincible me

High in my chair
I hear them yearn down there
Watching the gears turn

Then I ran into the sun...
Ran right into the sun
Running into the sun, running into the sun, running into the sun...

In that moment I knew it was over, and I realized
How I would be eulogized...

You were the one, the one who would fade the light
You were the one, who only lived here for himself
You were the one, who counted our tears for fun
You were the one, playing the game all by yourself

Is this a dream, move me away from here
Make me whole again, take me away from here
This is a dream now, you thought I couldn't fly again, but you're wrong
Back in my throne again, it's a new day for me

Feeling alive in a higher place, confidence burns at a record pace
Shooting at mountains with finger guns
Stopped in my tracks when I hit the sun

Right into the sun
Ran right into the sun

Pale light comes in like water,
Through cracks in the darkness forming lines across the land
A legend falls around us with a thousand lies
If you listen close you'll hear him crying in the sky

We listen to this great sky
Echoes fall like rain

I thought that I was the only one, in this sky
Nothing around me, not even the sun
The moon had abandoned me for awhile
Once caught a glimpse of that famous smile

Don't you know it's the same sky it's always been
Wouldn't you know you learned that lesson running into the sun

We listen to this great sky
Echoes fall like rain

Bring back the light, bring back the sun, come back home
We see the light, we see the sun

Here we've come to see you burn, in this pile of stone
Light the sky, the ritual complete again
Embers rise beneath our feet, with vengeful eyes we see
One more day high above your effigy
