7th Order

From wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7th_Order 7th Order is an American Rock & Roll band whose debut extended play CD release, The Lake of Memory, was issued on the Big Island Sounds label in 2007 (although 7th Order had been in existence for several years by that time). The band is led by vocalist and songwriter Daniel Jones and is notable for having been assisted by veteran British guitarist Martin Pugh(of Steamhammer, Armageddon and "The Rod Stewart Album"), drummer Tim Kelliher, (of Randy Hansen's Machine Gun), and guitarist Geoff Thorpe (of Vicious Rumors). Reviewers have recognized their particular sound as reminiscent of blues-rock bands like The Rolling Stones and The Yardbirds, with progressive undertones ala Led Zeppelin. As of October 16, 2015 - 7th Order was the number one Rock & Roll artist for the State of Hawaii on the Reverb Nation web site. Their most current release (June 2020) is a single titled "Voyager" - a tribute to the late American guitarist Ronnie Montrose, and a benefit for the Sweet Relief Musicians Fund

"The Lake of Memory" by 7th Order
(Daniel Jones) 2003©7th Order Songs ASCAP


By the light of the fire
You watch the snowflakes falling
It's the plight of desire
Into despair you've fallen

While you look for a reason
An explanation for why we are
Caught in perpetual seasons
Drifting alone through a sea of stars

In the fullness of time, I found that
All the choices are mine
I will decide my own destiny
In the fullness of time

Into the heart of the sun
The final journey's just begun
And while we're looking back on our lives
I'l be right there to wipe those tears from
your eyes

Now please consider these answers
Let us dispense with confusion
The king, the beggar, the dancer
The changing face of illusion

Lingering questions, they slip away like a winters night
Replaced by solemn perceptions
New understandings of wrong and right

In the fullness of time, I found that
All the choices are mine
I will decide my own destiny
In the fullness of time

We lose the fear, and find the secret
I'll turn the tables and take a stand
I won't be taken in
By a sleight of hand

I'll raise my hand against the powers
Rally the troops and seize the tower
Throw open wide the gate
on the Armageddon hour

I'm telling you now
Let's get it on, they're gonna stand down
Open wide the gate
On the Armageddon hour

And once the story's told
We've crossed the last threshold
The wheels begin to turn and
the fire of passion burns

Ah, we'll share eternity
Ah, the lake of memory

And once we've found the force
We'll reunite of course
I can feel the time is right
We'll walk into the light
Ah, we'll share eternity
Ah, the lake of memory
Ah, we'll share eternity
Ah, the lake of memory
