Green Carnation - "My Greater Cause" (lyric video)
As I ran down the street all the
faces appeared to me one by one
by the fifth I took a sudden turn
the melting snow revealed the bodies
buried long ago
all the violence a man can take
the broken bones, and broken homes
beneath my feet
On the dark side
we'll meet again
and cook it up for one more dance
it's who we are
But I swear it'll be my last
and if I go, I go alone
In the eyes of the elephant
nothing's too big and no one
proves you wrong
but the kind they had to offer
didn't do me good
it barely cracked the softer shell
On the dark side
we'll meet again
and cook it up for one more dance
it's who we are
Aut I swear it'll be my last
and if I go, I go alone
yes I failed and I can't go back
I'm wasted beyond my years
and I breath just to let it go
All that I wanted was to slip away
for a little while
'cause I felt alone
and I couldn't keep up with the world

Στα ξεκινήματα του 2006 οι Green Carnation κυκλοφόρησαν τον δίσκο "Acoustic Verses". Την επόμενη χρονιά διαλύθηκαν για να επανέλθουν επτά έτη αργότερα συνεχίζοντας μέχρι και τις ημέρες μας. Ήταν το τέταρτο full length album της Νορβηγικής avant-garde μπάντας.
Το "Acoustic Verses" θα επανακυκλοφορήσει στις αρχές Δεκεμβρίου και παράλληλα θα "βγει" για πρώτη φορά σε (διπλό) βινύλιο. Σε σχέση με την αρχική έκδοση θα υπάρχουν τέσσερα επιπλέον τραγούδια. Το "My Greater Cause" (το βίντεο που σας παρουσιάζουμε σήμερα) αποτελεί το πρώτο μέρος της τριλογίας "9-29-045", η οποία υπερβαίνει τα δεκαπέντε λεπτά σε διάρκεια...
