Hear the silence, you dashing shapes
the crown of cinder, it escapes
the ocean beating, those crystal streams
but you may feel it in your dreams
|
||||
2. |
||||
By salty breeze and scorching sun
we do away with reason,
and leave behind all things that stand
against goodness for a season
|

Go to Sleep
04:09
|
|||
Close my eyes and sit by me
as rivers grow into a sea
As dust brings mountains all anew
I'm still here, and so are you
|
||||
4. |
||||
Put all effort, strain and will
into tomorrow, pay the bill
Today a single purpose serves,
an impulse in a sea of nerves
|

Bleak Morning
05:26
|
|||
Another day will come and go,
the ticking overrides the tow
from here to there, live to die,
the bleakest morning taunts the eye
|
||||

Flames to Cinder
08:07
|
|||
Calls are made to wilderness,
idle watchers down
Licks of heat bring more to less,
cinder as its crown
|
||||
7. |
||||
Two shapes are dashing, hand in hand
like flickering plays of lustrous light
through a field of twisted scenes,
they keep out of waking's sight
|
||||

She Wove a Web of Dreams
05:51
|
|||
To say she wove a web of dreams
and glistened 'neath these crystal streams
I'd summon half the tale I've known
and leave my silent truths alone
|
||||
9. |
Everlost
08:37
|
|||
They told me I was everlost,
that it was what I chose
that all of my unspoken words
had brought me to a close
|
||||
10. |
You Are the Only Sun
06:44
|
|||
They told me I was everlost
that all my deeds were done
yet bathed in light I told my dreams;
"you are the only sun"
|
||||
11. |
||||
And every ocean may beat its shore
until there's no hope for amends
but no beating will leave a scar so sore
as the silence of our friends
