This band is a joy to listen to. Top notch songwriting, guitar work, vocals, everything. They often have an uplifting vibe to their songs which I love. Thanks for sharing.
C-horse's discography is pretty flat. As in all of their albums are pretty good, but I don't come back to any of them more often. They'll have to work a lot harder on the next one.
Wait, love For sight as though I never knew that I was blind Mercy, patience, promises we left behind All I can hope for is to wake, love And trembling hands to stillness find their way Quiet, I can hold my breath And to hope to god it stays The hands are the hardest Always And sober never shone quite so bright Colour me blind, just empty glass on canvas The hands are the hardest One more Stare into the dream the dead are begging for This is what you wanted, feed me, give me all Deep in the poison, find the cure When sober gives me spark I will stand in the light When sober gives me eyes I'll sue for peace These sweet dreams Sue for peace These sweet dreams Love conquers all, you said But until then, light be damned And down that hole I dive again When sober gives me spark I will stand in the light When sober gives me eyes I'll sue for peace These sweet dreams Sue for peace These sweet dreams This is what you've always wanted Seeing in colour now Look at what you made me do Make me a martyr This is where our dreams have brought us Laying me softly down Look at what you made me do All for you This was for our sons and daughters All for you Look at where our dreams have brought
I'm improving as a person to be as good as I can for my crush. They helped me with my depression and now they give me the power to be strong to improve. Love conquers all!
This song is soooooo uplifting. Virtuosity but no showing off nor useless bars or breaks. Both the singer and the musicians are incredibly inspired and gifted. Cannot get enough of it. The guitar and the drums... just wow!!! My favorite song on the record. Cheers from France!
It sure sounds like it but man the lyrics hit hard, especially at the end in conjunction with the darker sound to signify the speaker's inability to change from hurtful habit
I am so excited for you guys!! Seeing you as a support band and now you are TOURING!! goes to show not only are Aussie's brilliant musicians but you are a testament to hard work, superb songwriting and epic musicians!!!
I'm from Perth where Voyager are from and I think V is an amazing album, as is I Am The Revolution. In Contact beats it though. It's the best album of all time
My hands aren't the only thing that are hard right now
That's what she said

@Crackbreaker Bloom is a great collection of songs but this is probably the best album of all time

Can't stop listening to this song. So damn beautiful
I know you feel
I think you mean album
RIGHT?
Yep, on the same page over here.
Wait, love
For sight as though I never knew that I was blind
Mercy, patience, promises we left behind
All I can hope for is to wake, love
And trembling hands to stillness find their way
Quiet, I can hold my breath
And to hope to god it stays
The hands are the hardest
Always
And sober never shone quite so bright
Colour me blind, just empty glass on canvas
The hands are the hardest
One more
Stare into the dream the dead are begging for
This is what you wanted, feed me, give me all
Deep in the poison, find the cure
When sober gives me spark
I will stand in the light
When sober gives me eyes
I'll sue for peace
These sweet dreams
Sue for peace
These sweet dreams
Love conquers all, you said
But until then, light be damned
And down that hole I dive again
When sober gives me spark
I will stand in the light
When sober gives me eyes
I'll sue for peace
These sweet dreams
Sue for peace
These sweet dreams
This is what you've always wanted
Seeing in colour now
Look at what you made me do
Make me a martyr
This is where our dreams have brought us
Laying me softly down
Look at what you made me do
All for you
This was for our sons and daughters
All for you
Look at where our dreams have brought
You guys are one of the best things that happened to me in my life
Same here.

Kiss Shot Acerola Orion Heart Under Blade Shinobu love your comment! i also live by the saying that love conquers all :)
One of the best songs I have ever heard period
The most underated song ever!

Its such a beautiful song.
What a beautiful melody and song. Soothes the rock hungry soul
Sooooo, these guys should be playing 20K seat venues all over the world. Cheeeseandrice! They are brilliant!
Caligula's Horse discography is immaculate in my eyes
It is but In Contact is their magnum opus for sure
this is a masterpiece......
Its seriously so so good
I am so excited for you guys!! Seeing you as a support band and now you are TOURING!! goes to show not only are Aussie's brilliant musicians but you are a testament to hard work, superb songwriting and epic musicians!!!
This is too good!!!!
Can't wait guys to see you October 12th at Very Prog Festival in Toulouse !
22k views, anyone...
This is easily one of the best bands of our time
Haken Visions ONLY 30K after 2 year. The bohemian rahpsody of prog.
@@michelehovde15
Jeez..
I thought Haken did well for some reason.
A special F-you to everyone saying there is no good music nowadays.
Auto play brought me here:)
What a Awesome song !!!
Thank you:)
Caligulas Horse. Leprous. Haken. Affiance. I think i hit a gold mine of amazing metal music today!!! XD XD XD
Reminds me of one of my fav bands from Aussie as well. Voyager. Check them out if you like CH !
I'm from Perth where Voyager are from and I think V is an amazing album, as is I Am The Revolution. In Contact beats it though. It's the best album of all time
this album man
Best album of all time
Best song of the album IMO
Big call
Strange way to say Graves.
But i'm agree with you, this one of the best song of the album
@@alainter9759 true that
A treasure.
wonderfull song i think to going in Milan.Italy.😄 legend club half october.
~ And sober never shone quite so bright ~
When i first heard it i thought Karnivool's vocalist did a feature.
Wait, love
For sight as though I never knew that I was blind
Mercy, patience, promises we left behind
All I can hope for is to wake, love
And trembling hands to stillness find their way
Quiet, I can hold my breath and to hope to God it stays
The hands are the hardest, always
[Chorus]
And sober never shone quite so bright
Colour me blind, just empty glass on canvas
The hands are the hardest
[Verse 2]
One more
Stare into the dream the dead are begging for
And this is what you wanted, feed me, give me all
Deep in the poison, find the cure
[Chorus]
And when sober gives me spark
I will stand in the light
When sober gives me eyes
I'll sue for peace
These sweet dreams
Sue for peace
These sweet dreams
[Bridge]
"Love conquers all," you said
But until then, light be damned
And down that hole I dive again
[Chorus]
When sober gives me spark
I will stand in the light
When sober gives me eyes
I'll sue for peace
These sweet dreams
Sue for peace
These sweet dreams
[Outro]
(This is what you've always wanted)

Jim Grey:
[“The Hands Are the Hardest”] was the first song we completed from In Contact, and a lot of lyrical themes for “To the Wind” came from that song. It also contains “Love conquers all”.

AlexReinking, thanks for helping out! Plenty of really clever transcriptions here. It’s nice to bring in other people since it’s easy to get lost in our own heads and never come up with anything.

After boosting the vocals, I think he might be saying “…pry this gaze.” However, when reducing audio, some quality is lost. When listening to the actual track, it’s not so clear that it’s “pry.”

Just want to say I’ll probably never be able to figure out most of these lyrics. The ending is a hellscape of vocal layers and I can hardly make out any one layer. Great song though! lol

It might help to bring the song into a program like audacity and try to isolate the vocals the best you can.
