VANDEN PLAS, eine der dienstältesten deutschen Prog Metal Bands, hat bereits Ende März die zweite Akustikveröffentlichung “AcCult II“ angekündigt, die am 12. Juni herauskommt. Heute erscheint von dem Full-Length Album die Rendition-Version ihres bekannten Songs `Postcard To God`, der inzwischen 20 Jahre auf dem sprichwörtlichen Buckel hat.

Lyrics:
SURROUNDED BY A COVER LIKE A SHIELD FOR ALL THE FAITH
SURROUNDED BY THIS PAIN AND NEVER ENDING DAYS
I’M LIVING IN A PRISON BUT I DARE TO DIE OUTSIDE
THAT KEEPS MY WILL ALIVE
AND I´M SENDING OUT A MESSAGE
AND I´M SENDING OUT A PRAYER
ALL THE VOICES ASKING EVERY NIGHT
IS THERE ANYBODY THERE
SOMEBODY KNOWS, SOMEBODY KNOWS
WHEN I PRAY I CAN SAY
ALL MY BELIEVING IN JUST ONE WORD
WHEN I PRAY THEN I MAY
SENDING AN UNWRITTEN POSTCARD TO GOD
AND NOW YOU BUY ME ROSES
AND SOME NEEDLESS LITTLE THINGS
YOU’RE SINGING ME A SONG
IN A TUNE THAT NO ONE SINGS
THE LONGING FOR THESE MEMORIES
THEY KEEP ME WARM AND SAFE
I THROW THEM IN YOUR GRAVE
AND I’M SENDING YOU A MESSAGE
AND I’M SENDING YOU A PRAYER
ALL THE ECHOES WHISPER IN MY EAR
IS THERE ANYBODY THERE
SOMEBODY KNOWS, SOMEBODY KNOWS
WHEN I PRAY I CAN SAY
ALL MY BELIEVING IN JUST ONE WORD
WHEN I PRAY THEN I MAY
SENDING AN UNWRITTEN POSTCARD TO GOD
WHEN I PRAY I CAN SAY
ALL MY BELIEVING IN JUST ONE WORD
WHEN I PRAY THEN I MAY
SENDING AN UNWRITTEN POSTCARD TO GOD – TO GOD
WHEN I PRAY WHEN I PRAY
