A Dream in Azure
04:53
|

|
It’s as if I could see
The uncoiling of the man
Or the birth of a thousand suns
To climb the clouds
Torwards the moons
And quantic fields
A land ruled by gods and beasts
What if for the eyes I had
A labyrinth?
What if I unlock this scene
Become this dream?
I travel through the wind
And sail the seas of pain
An hourglass with no sand
Of nameless flags I make my land
I bend the kings
The rain falls to my command
What if for the eyes I had
A labyrinth?
What if I unlock this scene
Become this dream?
What if for the eyes I had
A labyrinth?
What if I embrace this spring
Become this dream?
What if for the eyes I had
A labyrinth?
What if I become this dream?
This dream in azure.

A Waltz for Leaving
05:59

Here I stand
For one more waltz through dawns and sunsets
Here I am
For my farewell to worlds awaken
And as night falls dark to you,
Light will shine forever in my dream.
Here I lay
For my world now calls to me, and
Here I lie
Now I take my way within, so
Understand my leave and know
I’m alive inside an endless dream.
Here I stand
Between the hills I have created
Here I am
The infinite is mine to count, now
Never pray for my return
Now I waltz within the timeless sands.

Ossuary & Oblivion
07:41
|
|||
|
I watch the crumbling ground
To form an aisle
To light the way
I feel a warning gale
And down the hills
The shrine presents
Of calcified walls
The flesh and nails
Make roof and floor
The altar lights it’s flames
The bones make room
To one more soul
I then renounce my sight
My hearing fades
I kneel to them
The shadows walk at me
And whisper close
“You stay with us”
My voice I cannot hear
And still I pray
For my awake
Oh world I left behind
I bow to you
I’m coming home
The dream is dead
The dream is death

Reminiscence
04:41
|
|||
|
And so it ends
The dream becomes
Echoes unclear
Unwritten words
The stars uncaught
The maids not laid
The songs unheard
The notes not played or sung
And when I part
Will heaven hold
All that I’ve lost
All that I was?
One day I’ll go
With me my words
But not my dreams
They linger on
And on.
