Skyclad

Skyclad are a British heavy metal band with heavy folk influences in their music. They are considered one of the pioneers of folk metal. The etymology behind the term "skyclad" comes from a pagan/wiccan term for ritual nudity, in which rituals are performed with the participants metaphorically clad only by the sky, as a sign of equality. The name alludes both to the bands' religious leanings and to their social beliefs, as set out in the song "Skyclad" on their first album. more »

Unstoppable force and immovable object
Repel one another when by chance colliding
The Brownian-Motion within this love potion
Ensures our opinions are always dividing

I am from Mars my dear
You hail from Venus
A meeting star-crossed
Like the Sun and the Moon

Destined to let this cruel world
Come between us
Our last kiss eclipsed by a shadow at noon
A rose that is built

Out of music by moonlight
Petals stained ruby with nightingale blood
Cast down in disgust
To be crushed by a cart-wheel

Because of mere trivia misunderstood
We quest for a grail of illusive perfection
Each hoping we'll find it some glorious day
Yet gaze with remorse at our jaded reflection
That looks like The Picture Of Dorian Gray

[Chorus:]
Siamese Twins who were joined at the heart
Love's an affliction without a known remedy
Blunt-bladed fate
Deemed to cleave us apart
Emotional surgery pays no indemnity
Some seek release with effete anesthesia
Others adapt to the role of sworn enemy
You found nepenthe in cheap, sweet amnesia
It was far easier losing my memory

And the nightingale sang
"Sing love's lament
With a thorn at your breast
Impaled by her barb
Cruel and unforgiving
A million dead poets would gladly attest
Heartache's a keepsake
To remind us we're living."

[Chorus]
