    Bill Bruford: Quality, expertise and passion - Stay for the Ending is a massive piece, of which District ’97 should feel justly proud

    • The culmination of everything this Chicago-based prog rock ensemble has worked toward in its 15 years of existence.

    • Recorded, mixed and mastered by Noam Wallenberg (Alan Parsons, Mac Miller).

    This new release sees the band significantly upping their game in the areas of composition, performance, arrangement, production and sonics.

    Running the gamut from the relentless thrill ride of the title track to the tender, dynamic ballad ‘Life Cycle’, the album traverses a vast array of themes and musical influences. The songs explore the human experience: unity, division, deceit, obsession, detachment, resilience and transcendence.

lyrics

Crossover (Schang/Hunt)

One step at a time
’til it’s a new design
… in the sand, a line
don’t crossover to my side

One line at a time
If you deserve it, fine
I’ll make your reasons rhyme
But that don’t mean they’re mine

One step over the line
It happens all the time
… with a changing mind
you’ll crossover to my side

Once you realize
That all the water’s fine
I’ll wash away that line
And take your hand in mine

I’m not the first and
I won’t be the last to
Fall prey to you
Can’t deny and
Can’t refuse you, though I
Keep trying to

Legs buckle under me
Eyes roll up in my head
You hold my insides
So safely in your hands

Walk wherever you like
This is a new design
… ‘cause I saw your side
It’s not so different than mine
I have seen the light
Without a line, there is no fight
All we want is a good life
… Not …just for me and mine
