	'Planet spins without direction, in the Chaos, hold me, dear.' This highly emotive opus calls upon a time when Earth was pure, and humankind lived in harmony with nature. Invoking the wisdom of the Ancients, we ask that true Freedom, Love and Understanding be realized by all. ~ Both versions of 'Chaos' begin with an ethereal synth solo by Bret Empie. Xyra's poignant vocals are stirring and crystalline. Andrew Cann dazzles on piano, as Doug Empie soars on electric violin. Don Stapleson adds enthralling leads on clarinet, while Norm Thorne on drums and Larry Lawrence on electric bass take it to the next level!

	Story Behind the Song This version, without any guitar, was recorded by Marco Delmar. Players included are from Verborgen. ...:*:... Goth Rock may not be the most appropriate genre, with piano and clarinet leading only second to vocals in the mix. However, the addition of Norm Thorne on drums and Larry Lawrence on electric bass takes the song to the next level. Herein, a fear is expressed for the destruction of our planet as we know it. There is a thirst for TRUTH, for the wisdom of the Ancients, for clear skies - pure, flowing water - pure air. Clean, clear, landscapes ... Love and Freedom, in their truest sense. As sited in another of our songs: 'We wait for the light at the end of night' ... a sign, a vision, an enlightened purpose. Lyrics Chaos, in search of meaning You hold me dear Water's edge, in your reflection ... Ancient stair Chaos, in search of meaning Such choices are so rare We are alone in our believing Alone, alone Planet spins, without direction In the chaos, hold me dear Godless faces all around me Understanding is so rare We are alone in our beliving Alone, alone... Alone, alone...
