lyrics

FREEDOM WIND:
In these troubled times, it seems there's no way to escape
Until the trumpet sounds to recall that hope still reigns
The rain falls, crashing to the ground
And everything you know is nothing
Everything is gone

We can see within our reach the ending of an age
But this is not the same as if you say “the end of days”
We shape this universe and choose to be here now
We choose to live this defining moment
We're choosing to live on

Freedom wind blows like a hurricane
The storm is coming and no one is safe
Freedom wind blows like a hurricane
You can't escape this change
It's coming for you

Those who don't work will not eat
And those who don't fight won't survive
The price is high, but nothing's free
And the media is mediocrity
The television feeds on fear
And everything you know is nothing
But the winds of change are near

Freedom wind blows like a hurricane
The storm is coming and no one is safe
Freedom wind blows like a hurricane
You can't escape this change
It's coming for you

Freedom wind blows like a hurricane
The storm is coming and no one is safe
Freedom wind blows like a hurricane
You can't escape this change
It's coming for you

I've crossed the oceans just to find you
I taste perfection and I'll never let you go

It's coming for you.

about

Austin Taft Colorado Springs, Colorado

Drummer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist focused on making unique and intriguing music – whatever that should entail. The new album, “Skeletons”, has been self-described as “Prog-Metal-That-Sometimes-Isn't”. The album before that was acoustic-focused.
So...you never know what you're going to get (hopefully).
