about

“Love Runs Aground” is up next. Part analogy of the past, a part prophecy of the present situation, “Love Runs Aground” chugs into the players with weight all its own. Hesh talks of past grief and glory and present corporate greed as he spins his tale of the past and ongoing. Lavengood growls and chugs over the able ministrations of Sparber, Kieffer, and Lopresto as Hesh squeezes everything he has out of the keyboards. Organs whirl and groan under pianos, bass, drums, and guitars, and it’s a keeper for sure.

~John Pfeiffer, The Aquarian Weekly

lyrics

Love runs aground
A wrenching sound
Into the shore like a burning ocean liner
Drifting, smoking, ramming into this town
What happens to a love that couldn’t get much finer
Hellstorm
Hellfire
Seven days and seven nights just like a bad dream
Nobody knows if there will be any survivors
Such a senseless end was unforeseen

Straight from the wedding
They were heading
Off to a happy ending
But they caught fire out at sea
They lost power
In the fateful hour
Just what went wrong remains a mystery
Hellstorm
Hellfire
The burning hulk beached off the convention hall
Destruction meets destruction and the toll rises higher
Spectators from the city
Come one, come all

Is this conflagration
The sorry culmination
Of a romance everybody said
Showed a sea of promise

Sha la la

It was magic
Now it’s tragic
Fairy tale love gone become a nightmare
Save Our Ship
Save Our Survivors
Save Our Souls
sweet rock’n’roll

It was a class act
Now it's a sad fact
B-movie love affair done gone up in flames
Save Our Ship
Save Our Survivors
Save Our Souls
sweet rock’n’roll

Love runs aground …
