Nevermore is a North American progressive metal band from Seattle, Washington. Their precise musical style is debated by fans and critics alike. The band incorporates elements from styles such as death, thrash, and progressive metal into their songs, and also makes use of acoustic guitars and a wide range of vocal styles. They started in the beginning of the 1990s, when the band Sanctuarywas pressured by its recording label to change its musical style, switching from heavy metal to grunge, which was obtaining mainstream success at the time due to bands such as Nirvana and Pearl Jam. Two members of the band, vocalist Warrel Dane and bassist Jim Sheppard, didn't agree with the change and thus proceeded to create a project of their own.

Timothy Leary Lyrics

Nevermore

A wise man came across the sea
In search of LSD philosophy
With open heart and open mind
To find the goodness in mankind
Bare your soul and you're saved
Believe the chosen that dreams in rage
Chemicals improve the view
Visions now have bloomed in you
Windowpane is suffered bliss
A psychedelic kiss
Show to me your ideology
Do you perceive or are you sleeping?
Timothy Leary, where are you now
The world needs you, we're going down
In translation they used the key
Altered visions, Tao Teh Ching
Open sky to paint their dreams
And see as did Lao Tzu
Melt away all the hate and pain
Mission is clear, awake the dreaming
Go to sleep child, and dream
When Timothy Leary first started speaking out in the sixties people didn't understand what he was trying to say, some people
didn't want to understand him, the establishment wanted to kill him, they wanted to suppress him, squash him like a bug, we
always want to kill what we do not understand, all he was trying to say was that we need to realize our inner harmony, to see
things in a different way, to truly be free...
