Lyrics
Leave behind old tangled streets
Beyond the Roman stone wrought walls
Await the Minster's blessed peal
Far from the crowd this Mayday Morn
Hear the gentle waters song, through verdant shade it won't be long
Clutching stones of purest white, await the bell, the time for five
Cast them out,
To timeless calm
Flowing fluid dreams
I pray they will take form
Relive the past
Relieve the pain
Reveal the future bring
A present free from blame
They said that time heals everything, all will soon be well
They sing their song songs of transience, we fall under its spell
I've heard it said that Spring won't be long, but it's so hard to tell
And it feels to me it's all so far away
Staring at Waters Dark

Napier's Bones are a UK band steeped in classic prog and using it as a foundation for their own take on long-form progressive rock music.
The focus is firmly on dramatic storytelling with subjects capable of resonating with today's listeners. Music that references the past but is very much of the here and now.
