The End of Hyde

the end of Hyde
now he points at someone in the dark
but it’s not a usual mark
unclear ‘cause of the lack of light
this presence brought him a wicked fright
he shouts, “where the hell did you come from!”
then everything went blank and completely numb
a deep voice flooded his blunted brain
“I have come to end your world of pain”
a friar in a long black coat
stood before him and he cleared his throat
“I’m here so you can confess
but I’ll take your soul nonetheless”
when looking for a place to hide
Jekyll turned and became the Hyde
and deep into his twisted heart
Hyde confessed to all things from the start
“I don’t feel remorse at all
you better leave now before you fall”
“well, I’m sad to hear you talk this way
you’re coming with me anyway”
then they began to fight like sin
and when Hyde sensed that he just could not win
said “you may claim Jekyll now my friend
but I sure as hell won’t repent”
“to the fire” he quickly replied
and it was Hyde he took and left the Jekyll slide

Won't look back

I won’t look back
one look in the open sky
a giant leap back in time
creation of a zillion kinds
in the glimpse of a blinking eye
how many became what we’ve become?
would you just pretend
all living under a setting sun
born and already condemned
countless mistakes till evermore
hear the four horsemen knocking at our door
the seven wonders of the earth,
achieved by the human dream
all had to bow down at your birth,
by a glance of your soul so clean
when you appeared, out of the blue
a rose of May, straight into my heart
straight into my heart
you're in control of all of me
I'll put down the arms and let you see
I’ll give up everything I know
and follow you to where you go
you're in control of all of me
I'll put down the arms and let you see
I’ll give up everything I own
I won’t look back and turn to stone
where are the others?
people you’ve never met
seems no-one bothers
but the child never forgets
listen to the fathers
who tried to seek the core
they saw the end and it was near
you're in control of all of me
I'll put down the arms and let you see
I’ll give up everything I own
I won’t look back and turn to stone

One goal

one goal
your act is beyond my ken
you eastern child
we just want freedom in pen
and now you go wild
oh no you won't get far
you setting morning star
oh soon your reign is over
we will wreck your life in clover
here we stand on the front again
because it's our plight
we're the risen women and men
with only one goal in mind
you do anything to stay
we won’t let you slip away
oh soon your reign is over
we will wreck your life in clover
we will prevail
we will prevail
a new dawn has come
oh, feel the warmth of the sun
done with the coldness
done with your harsh rule
those are the days of old
finally your reign is over
we have wrecked your life in clover
we are free
we are free

Free men

free men
you don’t look away and turn the other cheek
you are not afraid at all - or don’t seem to
we all pursue the freedom that you seek
and you’re fighting for us all - because you want to
make no mistake
for your own sake
wait up, I want to follow down the path you walk
oh, I can do far more than just listen and talk
you will be guiding
I won’t be hiding no more
like I did before
let's end life as we know it and start it all over again
imagine all the things we can do as free men
we'll be deciding
we won't be hiding no more
like we did before - in shame
we won’t look away and turn the other cheek
we are not afraid at all - or don’t seem to
we all pursue the freedom that you seek
and we’re fighting for us all - because we want to

I can feel You

I can feel You
can’t proof this
can’t proof this
but I know You’re there
I can feel You
I can feel You
when I say a prayer
You rose up
You rose up
and you chose to stay
You‘re saving
You’re saving
though we are gone astray
You should have let us down
when we gave You a thorn crown
but I thank you that You did not
when we had no remorse
and we did not see the Son of God
being defiled by so much force
forgive me
forgive me
that I’m not always there
please help me
please help me
help me to be aware
You could have let us down
when we gave you a thorn crown
but I thank You that You did not
and You died a criminal’s death
and we did not see the Son of God
before You took your final breath
I can feel you
I can feel you
when I say a prayer

Finding a way out
07:45

finding a way out
this call is all I hear
and I must leave for now my love
while I am gone
you must be strong
I will return to the old ways
when bad tidings come, oh don’t be numb
my thoughts are with you always
but I must move on
and return to my home land
in the haunted forest I can hear the screams
the fog’s coming near, but it’s not what it seems
I walk in these woods so alone, so damned and defiled
and forsaken
but the treasure is near
I can smell the sacred chest
I would run even faster if it wasn’t for this crest
I climb the blackest tower
‘till I rise above the throne
but I’m surrounded
finding a way, finding a way out
finding a way, finding a way out of here
fighting a way, fighting a way out here
fighting a way, fighting a way out here
I call on the nine and seek their presence
and I drink their wine
I’m so close to their essence
and I feel just fine
oh I feel their purity and it sanctifies my soul
I will not be forgotten here, I cannot die here all alone
oh time is now a crucial part, I will awake and I must not fall apart
fighting damned souls from the past
I will not falter, I will not compromise
my life of the past has not always been nice
and now I fight dragons and magic surrounds my eyes
so damn clearly
oh the treasure is near
I can smell the sacred chest
nobody would believe me
I was the center of jest
now I’ll climb the blackest tower
and I rise above the throne
i’ve got power
finding a way, finding a way out
finding a way, finding a way out of here now
fighting a way, fighting a way out here
fighting a way, fighting a way out here
I can’t go back
for I belong to my home land

All in the game

all in the game
you know my heart aches
and that my head shakes
for every moment he steps near
it’s getting darker
he put his marker
no, I’m not joking
I’ll be on my way
you are the one thing I love for certain like the beating of my heart
I know it's all in the game and I love you for real
but this is certain
he’s going to lay his claim, oh I know it’s for real
one thing is certain
before too long
he draws the curtain
and ends this song
have you got what it takes?
can you open graves?
and let the light conquer dark
you are the one thing I love for certain like the beating of my heart
I know it's all in the game and I love you for real
but this is certain
he’s going to lay his claim, oh I know it’s for real
this much is certain
it won’t be long
till he draws the curtain
and ends this song

sailing along with the breeze
was sailing along with the breeze
past islands and great barrier reeves
where silver dolphins chased around
swimming in a motion of sound
I could only sigh
when I watched them nearby
right past magic rocks
wish I could stop all clocks
like the first man on the moon
I had to leave too soon
but tranquil waters stopped the flow
and I had to lay down low
then it seemed wind caught the sail
but I was being pulled by a whale
when he played a merry tune
I fell into an ecstatic swoon
I didn’t know what this all meant
I didn’t know why I’d been sent
my crew had left on their own but I am not alone
yes, they left me for dead still I go on ahead
right past magic rocks
wish I could stop all clocks
was sailing along with the breeze
past islands and great barrier reeves
where silver dolphins chased around
swimming in a motion of sound

One-liners

one-liners
one line
one-liners
there is a light at the end of a tunnel,
oh just pray it's not a train
and if mummies are from Egypt,
then where are daddies from?
and if you learn from your mistakes,
then why ain't I a fucking genius
what sees a blind man when he's dreaming?
touché
if swimming is so good for your figure,
then how do you explain the whales?
if the universe is expanding,
why can't I find a parking space?
should vegetarians attend meetings?
how do you get off a non-stop flight?
why call it a building if it's already been built?
if people from Poland are called Poles,
why aren't people from Holland called Holes?

Loyal Tears

loyal tears
look at all the time that I've been wasting on these loyal tears, these loyal tears
and all this time I've been behind this grating with my lonely tears, my lonely tears
my heart slows down into a single beat
this yawning night disturbs this dawning light
look at all the time that I've been wasting on these loyal tears, these loyal tears
and all this time I've been behind this grating with my lonely tears, my lonely tears
I've got nothing to say, my love has flown away
I don't feel I betray, everything was full in play
these pains act like swaddling bands , oh
slowly now they’re devouring my hands, no
I've got nothing to say, my love has flown away
I don't feel I betray, everything was full in play
I’ve nothing owing, no,
you've been away you know
look at all the time that I've been wasting on these loyal tears, these loyal tears
and all this time I've been behind this grating with my lonely tears, my lonely tears

TumbleTown Netherlands
TumbleTown is the brainchild of two experienced musicians in the progressive rock realm – Han Uil (Seven Day Hunt, Antares,
and solo endeavours), Aldo Adema (Egdon Heath and Seven Day Hunt).
Later on, Erik Laan (Silhouette and Chain Reaktor) reinforced TumbleTown with his synth wizardry skills.
These three musical veterans combined their talents to create compelling rock music.

I received this as a surprise present by the band for pre-ordering the upcoming album, so thanks a lot to you, too :-)) As could be expected by Pat Sanders & Co, highly melodic prog that should, for instance, appeal too friends of Fish-era Marillion (although Uncle Fish would never have reached those high notes ;-) ) and some instrumentals (from beautiful miniatures like Bubbles to the more epic Last Supper). Among many other fine things offered here, I especially love Pat's piano playing!

In the wake of buying the Welcome To The Planet I also went for this older "EP" (clocking in on 70 minutes a rather big big EP...) as a final farewell to a very bright bright star that sadly doesn't shine anymore.
