Haken - Red Giant Lyrics

1:41 tho <3

the time signature almost sounds like it has half a beat in there, the placement of the snare sounds off but its actually spot on

I suggest everyone to hear this Song being stoned. Its like a Journey through space. Damn shmam!

That actually happened to me one time on the train, i was REEEALLY stoned and was listening to this track, infact i remember when it got to the bit of the song were you can hear the lyric "I'm Flying" over and over again, and i just kept on laughing cause it was just so hilarious to me. Everyone on the train thought i was fucking crazy.

It sounds just fine without the need

OMG I WHOLE HEARTEDLY AGREE !!!

💖 BEAUTIFUL 🤘

Thank you Haken for taking Prog to the Next level !!!
Keep bringing the Amazing music :) " LOVE IT ! "

Blood red Sun
My companion
Feel my love
Through the static
Fore we rust
And dismantle
Salvage us
From the ash
A trial by fire
On shoulders of giants
We're scalded and burning
Yet she keeps on turning
If doom is impending
What are we defending?
Desolate their communion
Gaia mourns her children
Everything that ends
Beckons a revival
Sustain or to descend?
Nothing's decided
When I escape myself
How much will be remembered
Of heaven and of hell
Of what it really means to be?
Desolate their communion
Gaia mourns all her children
As time decays
Ticking lives away
All that we know eroded
Dreams that we made
Gently start to break
But they'll never fade

Fucking brilliant... An instant classic.

The subtle pattern that starts 3:45 sounds like Morse code, can anyone confirm? And does anyone knows what it says?

no, i'm pretty sure he's just jumping between triplets and quads.

carlmanu I noticed yesterday that the 2:45 pattern is extremely similar to the word ''red'' in morse code, so I've asked Ray Hearne, and it's completely unintentional, there's no morse code in this song, that's just a coincidence

Wait, do you frickin know Ray Hearne???

wait..do you freakin know morse code!?

Such an underated track from the album! Very unique! The guitar outro is one of my favorite parts of the album.

Good to know that i wasn't that felt this way about that...it's so soothing despite the destructive nature of latter half of the song...

Apparently they've just started playing this one live!!

This is absolutely genius.

Is this song intended to sound like it's skipping? I like it but I don't really know

Well, thats prog. It follows rules by breaking them.

@Andrew Bennett Really? Interesting. I haven't been able to figure out the lyrics for this album. Seeing as how you know what this one is about, I'm guessing you know what all of them are about. Could you direct me to a place that would tell me?

According to the band it wasn't what they were going for, but this makes complete and total sense as an interpretation and it's how I approach the album myself.

Interesting. I kinda like that interpretation
