| Skyclad is a British heavy metal band with strong folk influences in their music. They were formed by former Sabbat vocalist Martin Walkyier, and Satan / Blind Fury / Pariah guitarist Steve Ramsey in 1990 to represent the “ultimate pagan metal band”. From the start, they have incorporated a diverse range of influences from British folk music to German thrash metal which has fed their constantly evolving sound. They are widely considered the inventors of folk metal. The lineup remained stable for the recording of 2000’s Folkémon, but founding member Walkyier left the band in 2001, citing various reasons, such as financial difficulties or the bands unwillingness to tour in South America owing to security concer... more... | |||||||

Cardboard City lyrics |

|
Hands locked in darkness - a nocturnal greeting We flutter like moths round the brazier's flame Shrouded in shadow - our clandestine meeting Here where past and present are one and the same. No-one dies in Cardboard City Faces only fade away Eat your pride and take their pity Fight to live another day. And did those feet in ancient times Walk bare upon these lonely streets like mine? Does God watch us from that penthouse high above His children down below who live on air and love? Wrapped in old headlines beneath this shop awning I shiver in silence and wait for the morning. No-one cries in Cardboard City That would be a waste of tears Eat your pride and take their pity Like you have so many years. Youth of our nation - A lost generation Like lepers we march to the chimes of Big Ben. Exiled and rejected by powers elected Our cries from the gutter don't reach number ten. Give us this day our daily bread Before the headlines read 'bring out your dead.' Chip-wrapper flowers are blown onto this cardboard grave My spray paint epitaph upon the wall it says... 'Here lies the bones of some poor homeless vagrant He died as he lived, in the shit on the pavement.' No-one dies in Cardboard City Faces only fade away Eat your pride and take their pity Fight to live another day. No-one cries in Cardboard City That would be a waste of tears Eat your pride and take their pity Like you have so many years. |
