Fear has planted its evil seed in our hearts
It strives to convince us that we are frail
Feeding angst for our worthless endeavor
We must toil for a place to call our home
Look at us now
A fabled time
That never was enough to keep the dogs at bay
Better than a wasted life
My soul on fire
Recognize the plight and sow the seed
Now see the scorn in his gaze
He shuns us yet he needs us (he fears us)
Now is the time – we must act
Not sit idly by
His darkness must be met with our light
Vigilant in nature
We command all that wish to live

My choice of a favourite song is not set in stone; there are a lot of subtleties to absorb in these songs, both lyrically and instrumentally. I can say, with conviction, that this is top tier neo~prog in the vein of Porcupine Tree, and it often hits 🎯on my ‘musical quest dartboard’. Lyrics are thoughtful and personal, and the accompanying music is always a complementary partner that walks hand in hand with the vocals. Hillward’s sound is satisfyingly diverse and pleasurable.
