Genesis - In the Wilderness

To Rate
★ verse 1 ★
Leaving all the world to play, they disappear
And the leaves have gathered dust to run like deer
Tearing pieces from our lives to feed the dawn
Mist surrounds the seagulls, christened by the storm

★ chorus ★
Music, all i hear is music, guaranteed to please
And i look for something else
Raindrops pouring down the rooftops, flowing in the drains
As the people run their lives and their lives are run by time

★ verse 2 ★
Fighting enemies with weapons made to kill
Death is easy as a substitute for pride
Victors join together, happy in their bed
Leaving cold outside the children of the dead

★ chorus ★
Music, all i hear is music, guaranteed to please
And i look for something else
Raindrops pouring down the rooftops, flowing in the drains
As the people run their lives and their lives are run by time

★ chorus ★
Music, all i hear is music, guaranteed to please
And i look for something else
Raindrops pouring down the rooftops, flowing in the drains
As the people run their lives and their lives are run by time
Music, all i hear is music, guaranteed to please
And i look for something else
Raindrops pouring down the rooftops, flowing in the drains
As the people run their lives and their lives are run by time
Music, all i hear is music, guaranteed to please
And i look for something else
Raindrops pouring down the rooftops, flowing in the drains
As the people run their lives and their lives are run by time
Music, all i hear is music, guaranteed to please
And i look for something else
Raindrops pouring down the rooftops, flowing in the drains
As the people run their lives and their lives are run by time

Genesis

Genesis are an English rock band formed at Charterhouse School, Godalming, Surrey in 1967. The most commercially successful line-up includes keyboardist Tony Banks, guitarist Mike Rutherford and drummer/singer Phil Collins. Other important members were singer Peter Gabriel and guitarist Steve Hackett. The band underwent several significant changes in musical style over its career, from folk music to progressive rock in the 1970s, before moving towards pop at the end of the decade.

Formed by five Charterhouse pupils including Banks, Rutherford, Gabriel and Anthony Phillips, Genesis was named by former pupil Jonathan King who arranged them to record several unsuccessful singles and an album. After splitting with King, the group began touring professionally, signing with Charisma Records. Following the departure of Phillips, Genesis recruited Collins and Hackett and recorded several progressive rock style albums, with live shows centred around Gabriel’s theatrical costumes and performances.

Their discography includes fifteen studio and six live albums, six of which topped the UK chart. They have won numerous awards and nominations, including a Grammy Award for Best Concept Music Video with “Land of Confusion” and inspired a number of tribute bands recreating Genesis shows from various stages of the band’s career. In 2010, Genesis were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their biggest hit to date is Invisible Touch which spent 3 consecutive weeks at #1.

Peter Gabriel was the lead singer of the progressive-rock band from 1967 to 1975. He wanted to spice up the bands performances and so started wearing elaborate makeup and clothing his most famous was the fox mask and red dress which became the cover art for their 1972 album Foxtrot.
