For the grace of all, with the sun and moon
all that's fit to fall, fell before too soon
With a will of ours, all we've had to reap
Blessed with gratitude, falling at our feet
Beyond fear. Beyond harm
When we broke the cast
When we fell from stars
as we burn the past
and release the scars
follow you and i and the strength of now
came the sun anew
and the moon so proud. on new ground
all this holy earth, placed within our fold
wishes we have birthed long before we're told
by the will of light, by this will of ours
Celestials oh so bright
for the grace of now
Beyond fear. beyond harm
When we broke the cast
When we fell from stars
as we burn the past
and release the scars
follow you and i and the strength of now
came the sun anew
and the moon so proud, on new ground
On new ground
As we've left it up to the heart

The Gilded Door
03:31
|
|||
|
Senses arrested, all
Less than abreast
Fractures of every form
A hole in the chest
Time for a rest
Self crucified I own
All form of sin
Past testaments may show
We'll rise again
Time to make a stand
Locked out, locked out again
The mark of every turn
Well meant or ill
Lays down a path that's earned
For every kill
Now stand still
Outside the gilded door
A will of stone
Walls fall of white cement
But we're not alone
Our blood runs uncold
Locked out, locked out again
Are we the meek or brave
Are we the king or slave
Are we the shuttered door
Are we the fortress floor
Are we sheltered dark
Are we the brightest spark
Are we the racing pulse
Raging against our loss
And still the question lay
Is this the vaunted key to our heart?

Stand in line, stand alone
guess you found a road you know.
(I know)
Follow it, shoot the curve
true to form. true to urge
(You know)
We're wasted. We're wounded. We're starving
We'll rise again
Throw a line. Hold the phone
Late to rise. Sure to roam.
(We'll roam)
Pray the night gets you home
brings you back from the fold.
(Don't fold)
Boy you know you've got a willing heart-
Any way you want to go
Now you know you've got a wealth of words to find
to tell the world what you know

That Which Cannot Fade
03:32
|
|||
|
It's said that light cannot be made, nor destroyed
Still in the dark have we lost our course
Left out to burn, forsaken
Wilts in the sun
Stole from the ether before too long
Don't cry, don't speak
Don't try to make it up to me
If all hell breaks free
Won't suffer it for no more
Twilight, a blind moon rises
Shine from above
Falls on the asphalt where I run
Signal to rogue, do you read me?
We're not alone
Break into song cuz I'm coming home
Don't cry, don't speak
Don't try to make it up to me
If all hell breaks free
Won't suffer it for no more
This splendid, divine aching
Night-blind and castigated
But getting by on faith
Good grace and all that which cannot fade
I searched the world over for you, where'd you go?
Don't hide. Don't dry your eyes
I fought the underworld for you, where'd you go?
Don't hide. Don't dry your eyes
Don't cry, don't speak
Don't try to make it up to me
If all hell breaks free
Won't suffer it for no more
This splendid, divine aching
Night-blind and castigated
But getting by on faith
Good grace and all that which cannot fade
Holding that which cannot fade

Sailing Out
03:20
|
|||
|
Foster a break in ties
Facing all the rain
Just bear the cross in stride
Aching to release or stay
I feel like sailing out
Reach for the mast and sigh
With graces of a crane
Lifting against a sky
Absent of the blame
Our gain
Feels like sailing
Blessed with the glow of seemless days
Reside against the tide, everything you know
Great are the odds of time, soar above the toll
Wasted breath, rising tides
Set course, a lilting shore, far enough to hide
Drifting away
These many nights adrift
Lay back across the oars
Soft are the calm of her
Have kept us long for more, what for?
I feel like sailing out
I've pressed these petals tween
the pages of our keep
Soft is the tongue that warns
Fleetings of a dream, now it seems
We feel like sailing
Kissed by the light of promises
Drifting away
Set in the stars between the days

Birdsong

And when you sing for me
You sing for two
And when you sing for me
We've seen it through
Within the wilderness of the heart where we meet
Warm curves of your form reveal unto me
And make it last
And make it last
We've made it last
This thing embraces us
Again, again
With all good graces
No call to defend
Now in the light of dawn we touch in a dream
To find our sources evolve from one seed
And make it last
And make it last
We've made it last
You sing your song
Wait for the moment to crow
We're coming home

G18

Faith, hope. Be or beg.
Weep, crow. Kneel or run home
Race beyond the pale
cease the endless stay
fall into my arms
Show me how you shine
Cross the breach unkind
We've seized the azure ray of our light
Bleak, bright. Meek or grand
Stay, flee. Free again.
Now.
Sing the song of praise, for the end of days
that held the shackled for so long
A requiem so grand, fills a hollow land
and forged the key to our new world

Fever Dream
03:07
|
|||
|
Your voice, that which
Some form of pitch
Comes forth just to give us a home
For years, we'll stay
To try and make it every day
To find something ought to be cut
We fall out and break away
A fever dream of something great
We raze all, build again
A reason here, to take the pain
Some try, some burn
Some find return
Some break, some fumble in the dark
Forget, refrain
From that which you can not explain
Truth lay in the hands of resolve
When surrender's holding me
And defenses fall from our heart
Where we've all been right from the start

Golden Hour
03:04
|

|
Force fed, foregone
force it down
Dogs with no bite gain no ground
can't breathe, can't see in your black
Try as we might to get higher
get pushed back
So far off, we're coming up every day
Short on steam and fight with no altar to pray
{but we feel ok}
Coming around, salt the ground
making the grade
we open up every golden day
Behind the wheel, hot on the heels
Setting the pace
We open up every golden day
'Round the bend, say amen
it's starting to rain
Forfeit, foregone. Kiss the ground
A horse with no speed gets put down
A clean break, break free from the pack
Are we fading like stars or built to last?
Every golden hour of every day
say amen although there's no altar to pray

G3
03:22
|

|
With your face in frame, and hearts that belong
Forgive the metaphors of this song
For what's at stake, the last to inform
With kind regards to the first to be born
Forget your ways
forget your harm
fall into finer days
in haunts to be lost
Forget your ways (hey)
forget your harm
we're crawling out in the fray
for hearts that belong
your placid ways
the sanctity of ours
forfeit the accolades for this song
those stones we've laid and hurled to the earth
they bare no names that call to be heard
This time you've let it all fall away

A New Arcana
03:42
|
|||
|
False starts, learning points of the formative
Lean years, aegis that we thought gone
Go now, under the notion of calm and allay
sore feet hover the thorns that we've found
Find time, tempered and worn with repetitive
stones throw from the reflections we know
come forth, under the dusk have we wandered away
in our dark and from the flame that we've grown
Turn it on, turn away
and through the earth I've come to be loved by you
Turn it on, turn away
To receive this all that is borne of you
forgone all that was known of the solitude
unlearn all that you feel that you knew
forced out. first time around as we struggle to see
ourselves unto the union unbound
For when you come around, do I hear the sound
of fear falling off again?
And when I come around, is it you that's found
surrender's call?
And when you come around, do I hear the sound
of fear falling off again?
For when I come around, is it you that's found?
Turn it on, turn away
and through the earth I've come to be loved by you
Turn it on, turn away
To receive this all that's been borne of you
