(I am) Blind
04:42
|
|||
inside this telltale heart
until our fingers part
between our reaching hands
a story written bright
above and out of sight
of our blinded eyes
take time
steal mine
away again
this time
this moment
i am blind
ageless and divine
hallowed and cast aside
this mystic’s vision untold
a fiction shimmering with light
a seer bereft of sight
these doors forever closed

Tale of Mercy
03:56
|
|||
from days gone by i am awakening
with sight reborn, with purpose felt anew
a creature formed by hands of mercy
a phoenix child flying on molten wings
from ashes cold
our love will arise
a tale once told
the drifting shreds of lives lost within
the spreading dark, no light to call them home
i touch your face with hands of mercy
an angel child who never found her wings
take one for love, and another for loss
and so to shape the feathers of your wings
i touch with care, with hands of mercy
your soaring form, that found its way to me

Dusk Falls
03:48
|
|||
autumn has passed me by again
heeled by winter’s lidded gaze
my mind wanders farther in
and frost embitters every day
dusk falls in the dreaming
a promise of snow
spinning threads of gossamer
to weave my secret skin
haunted by these thoughts of you
heaven-bright and spectre-grim
darkened days have given voice
to febrile creatures, dusk and wan
each created in your likeness
and given a stage to play upon

Dido's Lament
03:21
|
|||
thy hand, belinda – darkness shades me.
on thy bosom, let me rest.
more i would, but death invades me –
death is now a welcome guest.
when i am laid in earth
may my wrongs create no trouble in thy breast.
remember me, but ah! forget my fate.

Over the Edge
03:05
|
|||
i don't know when everything inside me died
or when when the pain began
i can't recall the scent of joy
or the color of happiness
over the edge and nothing's there to catch me when i fall
nothing left of my inner light
no reason to smile
i am gone
drifted away on the wind

Regret
04:44
|
|||
once upon a time
a life i’ve lived before
a different face i wore
you had another name
these dreams of dark regret
are filled with bitter tears
chasing ghosts of the past
and all the lives we’ve not lived yet
so close the sound
of our nirvana
a kiss and we are found
and lost like promised love
at cycle’s end
reborn again
this weary soul
always longing for your hands

Love Songs
04:02
|
|||
all alone again, these thoughts running
through and through my head and drowning
me in their sorrow and their lies and
all the colors kept inside, oh
love songs kept close to my heart
like pretty lies they start
to creep inside and devour my mind
love songs kept close to my heart
now and then i try to run away
from the horrors by my side but
still they come and creep inside and
play their tricks on my mind, oh
i will see in time the truth amidst
all my dearest lies, my fondest
melodies collide with words you’ve
spoken in my mind, oh

Shadows Cast
04:17
|
|||
shadows cast like sins of heaven
stirring echoes, shifting minds
pouring out a cold grey dream-state
raining portents, hailing signs
a vision, a nightmare
burns in colors in your mind
a fever, it’s madness
given meaning in time
rainbow glow a washed-out nightmare
bringing sorrow, pouring wine
faster in a spinning whirlwind
fall like petals from a vine
blinded by the incandescence
fade to silence, passing bright
colors in a charcoal dreamscape
stealing thoughts of wondrous sights

Ophelia

turning her back upon the rising moon, watching the tide roll out
thinking about the path she chose, thinking about the friends she's lost
and they laugh at her but she knows they'll never know
of the joy she's found in the darkness
tracing faces on the ceiling, watching them fade into the night
it's never enough for her that he holds her hand
it's never enough for her to know he's thinking of her in the night
it's never enough for her, nothing could ever satisfy her
it's never enough for her to go on living one more night
turning her back upon the rising sun
watching the clouds roll in
thinking about the plans she's made
thinking about the dreams she's lost
and it's nothing new
just another shade in this world of grey
but it's the only joy in the darkness
was never enough for her that he held her hand
was never enough for her to know
he's thinking of her in the night
was never enough for her
nothing could ever satisfy her
was never enough for her
to go on living one more night

Coriolis

turning and turning
the eye of the storm
endless whirl of cloudy sky
heart now burning
draw my pain with ashes
bind my limbs, i am
changed forever and always
turning
trembling and moving
inside me, a storm
wind like whispered song
grey and swirling
with a word anoint me
with a thought, i am
sworn forever and always
turning and turning
our love is a storm
endless whirl of cloudy sky
hearts now burning
draw my life with ashes
bind my soul, i am
changed forever and always turning
