lyrics

Here Now
don’t talk to me of heteronomy
of how deluded and misled I may be
of blinkered views whatever I may see
to be honest, I wish you would stop talking to me

I’m here, now
considering the options the situation will allow
free to roam
to leave – or to make this place my home

no reanimation, no rejuvination, or resuscitation, no artificial respiration

let the dead bury the dead
I won’t allow them to colonize my head
water under the bridge
permit me to forget the things we said

so painful remembering the days
we were connected in so many ways
fondly remembering, anticipating fun
who would have thought that in the end there was none

no prognostication, no divination, or auspication, no vaticination

I'm not planning ahead
won't scrimp and save and lead a life full of dread
no insurance for those afraid
of losing everything after they're dead

I’m here, now
considering the options the situation will allow
free to roam
to leave – or make this place my home

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

Forsaken Innocence

Soothfully a phenomenal prog rock album—an instant classic. What motivates me to say so, is the music’s incredible expressiveness & its wonderfully cinematic song structures. Jargon is a very good fit with this band. It is quite evident that the band’s current lineup have great chemistry together & that they share a common affinity to this vein of music. I look forward to their next creation. Drifting Sun are definitely one of prog rock’s brightest lights. Thank you, DS! 9+/10. Alrihkh
