The Time for Tears (Dry Your Eyes)

The time for tears has long passed us by
when every day is dark and cold
and all those fruits of hope half-come to bear
are stinking dead upon our own threshold
There are those who laugh, choked full of pride
while all their coffers are spilling full
and all the rest who grasp will not ever know
the touch of purse nor strings to pull
It's time to rise and dry your eyes

The time for tears has come and gone
when every life is locked and barred
And all the rivers of blood and sweat spilled before
the crooked smiles of crude, carved scars
which all the stagnant, still in dull slumbered sleep,
have wasted vane and flushed afar
and handed back the reigns of bought liberties
to hardened hearts as black as tar
You'd better rise and dry your eyes

The time for tears has long passed us by
when every day is dark and cold
and all those fruits of hope half-come to bear
are stinking dead upon our own threshold
There are those who laugh, choked full of pride
while all their coffers are spilling full
and all the rest who grasp will not ever know
the touch of purse nor strings to pull
It's time to rise and dry your eyes

What an album! The only reason the album didn't elevate them straight to stardom is not enough people heard it. Modern classic - from start to finish. c1ch

Allow me to copy Pagan Altar's third album title to describe not only III:Pentecost but the whole discography of Wytch Hazel so far: well, yes, it's Magical and Mythical!!! A must-have for the lovers of 70's hard sound revival. BoneWalker
