The Tempest
03:45
|

|
We will be lifted again
Let this bring light
Nurture those starry eyes, old friend, for this is not your time
Mend those broken wings and reset, we will make this right
Ride the wind and chase the Sun and fly amidst the stars once more
Hold on, I know that you can fight
When the world becomes so black we must sculpt the night and remake the skies
So share those starry eyes again and move towards the light
And spread those scarred wings, reset, and take to new heights
Ride the wind and chase the Sun and fly amidst the constellations
Hold on and overcome the night
All will be alright
Forge through this tempest
From ashes rise to again shine
Reach for the sky
When the world becomes so black we must sculpt the night and remake the skies

Sunlifter

To remain asleep a thousand years
To go on drawing shallow breath through an iron lung
Stargazer, once you've seen the things you've seen
Compromise looking down is letting go
We gather all we have to burn away the dark
Even in the end, even far away, I know your heart beats in time with mine in defiance of all
I can feel the Sun and the dissonance washes over me
I am purified
I am paralyzed
And here I make my peace
We die this way, all our questions unanswered
I've shown you rainbows in grey but through your narrowed eyes you see only victory or defeat in black and white
You'll burn your hands and fall to ash trying to lift up the Sun
You'll learn your place down below trying to lift up the Sun

Even words less than nothing
A shade in the falling dusk
Do we ever see?
Time spreads so wide and all we reach is the moment as narrow as it is
Now pay your toll here at the banks of the strait without a bridge for miles
Can't see across, copper coin under tongue to pay your toll
Passage to the ferryman, bound to the further shore
A shade in the falling dusk
Please let me see
Time spreads so wide and all we reach is the moment as narrow as it is
Build a vessel that will not leak with current so strong on legs so weak
We must sail with no wings to speak into an unknown we all must face
Revel, rejoice, and wade into the dark or into the dawn
Can't turn back, can't stay still and drown
Can't point to a throne where you rule, where you control
River King, River King, can't turn back the river flow
Let go of it, time spreads so wide and all we reach is the moment as narrow as it is

For many moons it was just black
Alone he travelled through the fires
Challenging demons of past
Never forgetting
Let this bring light
Muses sing with me
Give me the strength to do this as should be
With tales of hope to bring about good change
My dear ladies, let this bring release
For many moons it was just black
Alone he travelled through the fires
Searching for the strength
Searching for the answers

Old Ghosts
03:38
|

|
Remember the dreaming nights, the start of it all
Remember the colours chased in Elver Park
Dreamweaver, remember the fires, the battles fought under great, great spires
For when you left me, I could not see
With no Sun or stars to guide me
Dreamstealers, open your eyes
Can't you see that this is our time?
Stay with me
You hold my heart, you hold my dreams
Old ghosts call our names
Dreamstealer, open your eyes
Can't you see this is our time to reach for the Sun and take back the night
You hold my heart
Stay with me
Hearts afire and hearts aflame
Old ghosts call our names

The Fall

O how I’ve tired of watching this change
The hardened shell that you became
What happened to those words once sang?
Once a messenger, once a king
Once the fire, once the flame, once shone light in darkest places
Guns and lies and wasted nights
Failing to judge thy self
Washed all away, stolen away
By a thirst for self and fame
Your lust for the Sun
Your once great light, your once true heart
Lost to the maze, a dragon with rubies
Your once great light, your once true heart
Now giving way to darkness, now giving way to weakness and vanity
So disappointing to watch this change
The blackened heart that you became
A pale reflection of once great space
A lost defender of our faith
Now your fire stole away, no more light dust in trade
Shine no more
Now just the same as the wolves and pigs you claimed to hate
Once the fire, once the flame, once shone light darkest place
Under black fell away, your once great light it now fades
Morphine lies, such wasted lives
Lost to the darkness
Now fly away to your safest place, nothing more to fight or chase, and sing your songs once more
Yes, fly away to those true days and untethered you can spread your light through the heavens
Fell to this world, lost those great wings
The once true message now means nothing

Redemption Key
02:32
|
|||
|
The stars never shined there was no light
He lay in wait
When darkness arrived this boy defined
By words and nights now lost in time
Now lost to this wake
Muses sing now of false split tongues
Of words that were sung with two fingers tied
Let this bring redemption
Let this be the key
Let this bring catharsis
Let this bring peace

Cascade Locks
03:49

Once in time we rode as one
All in time we sang
Run with me, stay right here beside me while we collect our dreams
Together we’ll do everything
And I put my trust in you
Then came days of pain and everything flood in
Dark waters rose beneath me
Formless in form, keep me open, with a closing gate before me
Holding on to the words of the past may become a vision betrayed
Once again we ride as one
All in time we sing
Verses to reclaim the beloved star filled gaze
And a chance to frame our own image of grace
A path back to the Sun
Tomorrow starts today will yesterday fade?
Through the ashes can blue stars appear again?
Blessed were the waters dividing the cascades, so if only for a moment, for one fleeting break, embrace, embrace

Some Dreams
04:31
|

Tonight we float under blue moonlight, silver spheres, and all is right I tell myself
But we must go away
Must pull the cover over this and fly again far away
Brother, I wish so much could have been different
For so long our love was split so far apart
For I let life pull me away
The greatest failing of my days and not my design
My love
Some dreams were beyond my reach, some dreams
Some hopes that I could not keep, some dreams
I should have found a way
My heart fell that day
All in time
So many lost days
Sorrow for all of them
To fly again far away
Brother, I wish so much could have been different between you and I
Did I give us everything?
Did I keep my promises?
Was this my greatest mistake?
Sometimes this life it pushes us away
At times this path is so unclear
The greatest failing of my days
Force your design, my love
Some dreams were beyond my reach, some dreams
Some hopes that I could not keep
Seize your days, fly your way, reach your dreams
I lost my heart, I lost my breath, I lost my head when I left you
When I left you
I love you
