Yellow Hedgerow Dreamscape Lyrics

Black day, stormy night
No love, no hope in sight
Don't cry, He is coming
Don't die without knowing the cross

Ghettos to the left of us
Flowers to the right
There'll be bread for all of us
If we can just bear the cross

Sweet song of salvation
A pregnant mother sings
She lives in starvation
Her children need all that she brings

Cross

- Instrumental -

SW;
Thank you, I'd like to hand you over now to an old friend of mine
Please welcome to the stage;
Solomon St. Jemain
let's hear

good evening
I'd like everyone to join me in an experiment
could everyone sit down please?
everyone
relax

I'd like to take you on a journey with me

relax

#writers note# I dont want to spoil your journey by posting it here, spread the love!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The greatest song in human history. I have never found a song that makes me go into a space journey like this one. The version of the lyrics mentioned here are from their first album, titled Tarquin's Seaweed Farm(1989). Terrible album :P .The version I am talking about is Staircase Infinities. Such an under-rated song! So so so under-rated. The song kicks in only at around the 3:15 mark. Till then we have the build-up. And the climax is... Well, I can't describe it, I am listening to it right now. So should you...
