about

another song about the creative process, are we truly original, or do we derive our ideas from the collective sources of our lives?

lyrics

FLIGHT OF FANTASY

words & music: Joel Pirard

AT THE INSTANT OF THE OVERTURE, DO YOU BELEIVE?
ALL THE STORIES AND THEIR CHARACTERS, THEIR MIGHT DECIEVES
IN A MOMENT OF WEAKENED WILL, IS EVIL BORN?
IS THE PLOT LINE TRUE AND STILL, OR IS IT DEFORMED?

IS THE ANSWER WHAT WE SEEK?
OR IS IT WHAT WE WANT TO HEAR?
NOTHING IS THE SAME AS IT SEEMED
NOT SO VERY LONG AGO

WILL THE TALE BE TOLD OR IS IT LOST?
CAN WE BE SAVED?
ALL OUR THOUGHTS MUST BEAR THE PILGRIM'S COST
NO EARLY GRAVE
AS THE TALE UNFOLDS IN ECSTACY, WILL A POEM ARISE?
THE FLIGHT OF FANTASY, CAN WE SURVIVE?

YOU CAN FIND ME IN BETWEEN, WHAT IS FLESH AND FANTASY
ALL THE ECHOES ARE IN SAGAS
THAT HAVE ALL BEEN SEEN BEFORE
