Lyrics:
Has the dawn ever seen your eyes?
Have the days made you so unwise?
Realize, you are
Had you talked to the winds of time
Then you'd know how the waters rhyme
Taste of wine
How can you know where you've been?
In time you'll see the sign
And realize your sin
Will you know how the seed is sown?
All your time has been overgrown
Never known
Have you walked on the stones of years?
When you speak, is it you that hears?
Are your ears full?
You can't hear anything at all
The preacher said a prayer
Save every single hair on his head
He's dead
The minister of hate had just arrived too late to be spared
Who cared?
The weaver in the web that he made
The pilgrim wandered in
Commiting every sin that he could
So good
The cardinal of grief was set in his belief he'd saved
From the grave
The weaver in the web that he made
The high priest took a blade
To bless the ones that prayed
And all obeyed
The messenger of fear is slowly growing, nearer to the time
A sign
The weaver in the web that he made
A bishops rings a bell
A cloak of darkness fell across the ground
Without a sound
The silent choir sing and in their silence
Bring jaded sound, harmonic ground
The weaver in the web that he made
Clear the battlefield and let me see
All the profit from our victory
You talk of freedom, starving children fall
Are you deaf when you hear the season's call?
Were you there to watch the earth be scorched?
Did you stand beside the spectral torch?
Know the leaves of sorrow turned their face
Scattered on the ashes of disgrace
Every blade is sharp; the arrows fly
Where the victims of your armies lie
We're the blades of grass and arrows rain
Then there will be no sorrow
Be no pain

Formed in 1970, Emerson, Lake & Palmer helped define and set new standards throughout one of the most ambitious and experimental periods in 20th-Century popular music. Drawn from The Nice, King Crimson, and Atomic Rooster respectively, they were hailed as progressive rock’s first supergroup. Combining driving dynamics, intricate arrangements, and virtuosic skill, between 1970 and 1978, ELP released seven studio recordings and three live albums. Such was their popularity on both sides of the Atlantic that their records repeatedly achieved Platinum status sales.
Titles such as Tarkus, Trilogy, and Brain Salad Surgery created distinctive worlds that incorporated soaring themes, other-worldly timbres, yearning ballads, humorous pastiche and dramatic long-form conceptual works. While they adapted pieces by classical composers as stylistically varied as Bartok, Mussorgsky, Copland, Ginastera and Rodrigo, ELP sounded like nobody else but themselves.
The trio performed live one final time at London’s High Voltage Festival in July 2010 just weeks short of their debut gig 40th anniversary.
Although Keith Emerson and Greg Lake both sadly passed away in 2016, interest in ELP continues to grow, and Carl Palmer’s own band regularly performs a setlist dedicated to the unique music he helped create. ELP's music continues to find new audiences more than 50 years from their beginning, a striking testament to the group's irrepressible blend of energy, eclecticism, and visceral excitement.

@georgesep

This just shows how virtuosic Carl Palmer is a drummer, this will remain one of the best prog tracks of all time!

@IAmInfinitus208

A prog rock classic right up there with Close to the Edge, Awaken, Supper's Ready, Starless, 2112, Cygnus X-1 (Both books), etc!

@jpfine4898

The is the best Emerson Lake and Palmer song without a doubt

@ratpack3247

Amazing album, amazing song. Probably the coolest concept track I ever saw. Thanks ELP for bringing such music to the whole world.

@marcusanthonyPOV

This is my religion.

@BillyDean-wn8to

I had the pleasure of meeting Carl twice at 2 of his concerts last one I think was 2018 and he never lost a single step and the man is a true rocker and misses his friends who made history with him 💙 ❤️

@daemonspudguy

Someone on another upload mentioned how the guitar solo at the end of Battlefield is very Gilmouresque. It really is. Also RIP Greg Lake and Keith Emerson. We all miss you.

@stevecook2137

I'd forgotten just how good this was, I saw them live in Bournemouth and was astounded by the brilliant musicianship and showmanship still one of my favourite bands.

@scottharriman532

This is perfect for a post-apocolyptic science fiction movie.

@kobra______

Oh my God... This song is IMMORTAL.

@autk

Timeless Magnificence, it doesn't get any better.

@byzantineroman2407

Somehow, Tarkus became one of my favorite song... If not my #1. I was immediately fascinated by the song and how it works, but I couldn't admit how much I liked it until I realized just how often I listen to it. I suppose, the song grows on you.
