lyrics

Did you ever do something you thought you'd never do?
Saw someone else making the rounds you wanted to do it too
Long way down to the water
With my arms stretched out I thought I could fly
Wasn't quite sure what I'd hoped for
The burning in my body I thought I would die

I've drowned myself in sorrow
I've drowned myself in pain
No one dared to save me
The fear in their eyes as they ran to the lower ground

Long way down to the water
With my arms stretched out I thought I could fly
Wasn't quite sure what I'd hoped for
The burning in my body, thought I would die

So many times I've wandered
As I'm living the life of pleasure
I'm hoping they'd all forget about me
Yet the time would surely come
There's a man over there, with a gun

Well I've drowned myself in sorrow
And I've drowned myself in pain
I tell myself to wait until tomorrow
Everyday is just the same

No one dared to save me
With fear in their eyes they ran to the lower ground
Merciful honor don't you know who I am
Thats when he put the hammer down

I looked to the skies I feel the presence of a stranger
All I believe is my lies

Long way down to the water
With my arms stretched out I thought I could fly
Long way down to the water
The burning in my body, thought I would die
Long way down to the water
With my arms stretched out I thought I could fly
Long way down to the water
The burning in my body, thought I would die

Cell15 Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

From the first recoil of the complex kit's snare drum, followed by locomotive-strength symphonic keys, listeners are propelled like shot in a sling into Cell15's powerful breakthrough debut album, "Chapter One." This is a driving progressive rock concept album that's befitting of the most-capable, well-powered sound system. ... more

We Are Legend

This album is a dramatic way to say, that a relationship is over, every title has i's own charme, but the title track is superb! Christina's voice reminds me a little bit on Ilse DeLange (Dutch singer) prog-rocks

Fantasy progressive rock is not something I'd ever thought of. Yet Foreign Land, especially the Foreign Land track itself, transported me straight into an unknown, magical fantasy world. Hakim Zulkufli
