Genesis - Firth Of Fifth

From the album 'Selling England by the Pound'.

Lyrics:

The path is clear
Though no eyes can see
The course laid down long before.
And so with gods and men
The sheep remain inside their pen,
Though many times theyve seen the way to leave.

He rides majestic
Past homes of men
Who care not or gaze with joy,
To see reflected there
The trees, the sky, the lily fair,
The scene of death is lying just below.

The mountain cuts off the town from view,
Like a cancer growth is removed by skill.
Let it be revealed.
A waterfall, his madrigal.
An inland sea, his symphony.

Undinal songs
Urge the sailors on
Till lured by sirens cry.

Now as the river dissolves in sea,
So neptune has claimed another soul.
And so with gods and men
The sheep remain inside their pen,
Until the shepherd leads his flock away.

The sands of time were eroded by
The river of constant change.

@Inderption

I'm pretty damn sure they didn't make the effort willy nilly to come here and dislike it, they either were suggested it and thought it was bad, or happened upon it from the suggestion bar. It's pretty obvious dude.

seriously though, who searches up "Genesis - Firth of Fifth" just to dislike it? I don't even like it but why would any one come here to dislike it?

@Jellevlogs I know, that's insane.... This is one of my favorite pieces of music ever written. I don't know how anyone can even listen to music and not appreciate this song.
