Wishbone Ash - Throw Down The Sword Lyrics

Throw down the sword,
The fight is done and over,
Neither lost, neither won.
To cast away the fury of the battle
And turn my weary eyes for home.
There were times when I stood at death's own door
Only hoping for an answer.
Throw down the sword,
And leave the glory -
A story time can never change.
To walk the road, the load I have to carry
-
A journey's end, a wounded soul.
There were times when I stood at death's own door
Only searching for an answer.

Not the most inspired video i'll admit, but this band has a certain sound to it that is unique. I have the album "The king Will Come" at home, and few artists leave me feeling as peaceful as this group. Harmonious, melodious, and technically brilliant, one piece took me several listens to work out that it was in fact 2 guitars playing, not just one, in almost perfect union.
Not many have heard of them, but highly recommended if you are into electro rock. Known as pioneers of their sound, this is what i listen to when i need to be calmed.
