The Unaware
03:02
|
|||
the other sun is burning
as they bite inside
they will find you there
standing there
fighting with the sky tonight
i can't forget
why can't we see them
the always unaware
in the time of yearning
this place and energy
the smooth motion
of the trees

Valentine
02:36
|
|||
softly music plays in mine ear
whilst waves of laughter bring forth tears
but so i look on you fair and true
look back at me, ere i be blue
tis the play my heart draws near
the words, not verse, that are so dear
i give myself to you in my hands
this, our journey, to wonderland
gallant hearts collide in one
i hope you not let me be undone
on my life, you are a dream
i please you, be you what you seem?
speak you fair and tell me so
if you love me not, ere i'll go
but place a kiss on my gentle hand
and with you always i will stand

Oh Dear
02:10
|
|||
when the dreams have found you
nowhere
i will guide you
to the doorway there
oh dear
oh my dear
when you see
right there
the doorway opens
and the clouds are there
don't worry so
i will guide you there
don't you worry so
i will guide you there
oh dear

Failure
05:22
|
|||
inventions are the figures of the mind
no way to cope with failure
not nearly ideal time
to illicit this behavior
regressions are the signs of changing style
these things we can endeavor
to keep with passing times
i have to cope with failure
what can i see
the same as you
i want to be
everything in you
what can you see
trying to copy you
everything to be
i am in you
processions are the easy path to smile
in line with all the others
not nearly ideal time
why should i even bother
repressions are what i live today
a lot of nothing
in my brain
i think i am a failure

Rusty Haloes
04:10
|
|||
cherubs with broken wings
the wind blows through their faces
i opened my mind to sing
their eyes grow colder still
angels that cannot sing
fly to greet the freed
pale faces of martyrs sting
hold hands in the clouds
waiting for the night to dawn
their words cling to our sorrows
when depths in days are gone
guilt dulls their rusty haloes
across their heartstrings
they sing out of tune
huddled around they cling
in the pouring rain
like snowflakes in the spring
the silence fades away
their screams begin to ring
deafening the ashes

Every Thing She Is
04:30
|
|||
night wonders are wilder
holding higher up so low
stars glisten my tears away
sun evaporates the stains
if i can hold them
i will dream them
we will find them
they will fall
there's a place there
it will drown you
we will find them
they will fall
everything she thinks has
shattered something there again
nowhere can you look down
and find the piece in me
it's a blurred and vicious day
you'll never find it
you would find me inside again
how soon it crumbles
she sits
she dreams
she loves
she knows
she understands
she lives
she hates
she learns
she regrets
she stumbles
she hurts
she cannot remember
she is never the same

Wasted Time
05:15
|
|||
lost or stolen
truth in time
sits upon the hill
battered and frail thoughts
are falling in mine own
mine own house
is where i find them there
of the conscious clear
and told of far away
we have a place
where we can save them
the thoughts take me by
the dust keeps falling down
the wind takes their scent away
look in front
but never far behind
their faces shy away
they will take you there
you'll see them waiting
a breath upon your neck
the skin of our lives
waiting to find the one day
find the one place
know the meaning
of their wasted time
we are still wasting time
the nothing of the day
i waited so long
waited there but
nothing, nothing no one, nothing
will take away the wasted time
we wasted time

Radiant
02:58
|
|||
in my dreams
while light blinds me
the radiant sun
reborn before me
this phoenix of flame
and searing heat
boils my skin
and makes me bleed
the sun collapses
the fire collides
my eyes are burning
black star falling
in this consciousness
i am aware
of the power
that is everywhere
this burning flame
that i peer into
cleanses my soul
and purifies me through

Her Face
05:36
|
|||
her will she drove them
she needed them to
they never saw her
so gently she had fled
and you're calling home
so many nights have passed
and her face shown in the moon
something of nothing so beautiful
a dream years past
she riveted them all
a thousand and more there
the blood and the glory
all for the sake of her beauty

Never Again
03:50
|
|||
as the daylight dims
the dawning begins
another one to fall
i begin again
i know the day
when time runs together
shades of gray return
i feel again
the clouds shade the words
dreams blare aloud
eyes burn with tears
i drown again
walking in September
i left another place
clawing at the surface of the waves
circling and grasping
the truth finds me
moving against the darkness
never again

Fade
03:18
|
|||
beátam me dícent ómnes (all shall call me blessed)
around the leaves and willow wisps
the starlight fades out of the mists
there is a journey to find another
a distant place i will uncover
to pacify these aches and pains
and taste the warmth of a summer rain
in this swirl where memory exists
the stream flows away out of the mists
