God of Night

Well the paper cuts and the buttercups, they sing
And the butterflies are human eyes with wings
The mantis holds an ancient mold that sings
Take me high, let me fly away
Do you follow love, do you sink in sand or mud?
I can lullaby in the source of light and love
Don't you understand? I'm a gentleman
And I'll fill your cup, can I fill your cup?
Hold them tight, don't let them go
Hold them tight, don't let them go
Hold them tight, don't let them go
It'll eat your mind, it'll take your soul
There's an innocence to this punishment of ice
You were promised light, but your only god is night
Hold them tight, don't let them go
Hold them tight, don't let them go
Hold them tight, don't let them go
It'll eat your mind, it'll take your soul

Light, It Shines

I swallow darkness, I swallow sound
I never hear voices, so why's this one so loud?
See the light, it shines out from my mouth
I follow darkness, I follow sound
I never see demons, so why's this one so proud?
See the light, it shines out from its mouth
From hollow darkness a voice reaches out:
I never smell humans, so why have you come round?
See the light, it shines down

Ledger For The Moon
06:03
|
|

Taking a shower in pure white rain
Don't leave me alone, I forgot my name
Taking a shower in pure white flame
Don't leave me alone, I forgot my name
And the light becomes a pathway to the stars
And the sky becomes a ledger for the moon
And the wind picks up my mood
Behold the palace, the timeless place
Don't leave me alone, I forgot my name
Behold the palace, the timeless place
Don't leave me alone, I forgot my name
And he's building us a pathway to the stars
And the sky becomes a ledger for the moon
And the wind picks up my mood

A Stranger Passed By
07:25

Seal the sound tell me to talk, and trust the wild hand of the fog
Use mistakes use the pain, the infernal vision finally fades
Not unless the lightning fails, not unless the beating stills
And he follows the light down into the sand
And it shines in his hand, it shines on command
The fire has eyes, the darkness calls
The cavemen walked, we are the first to crawl
Use mistakes, use the pain, universal vision finally fades
I hope she stays for the rain, I hope the light remains
And she follows the light
down into the mine
Let it shine, let it shine
O lord please let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine
For once please let it shine
A stranger did I seek
A stranger did I find
Let it shine, let it shine
For once just let it shine
Let it burn, let it burn
For once just let it burn
With a stranger did I speak
From a stranger did I learn
Let it go, let it go
For once just let it go
A stranger did I see
A stranger did I know

Night, It Binds
05:28

Open up your eyes just for a while and see the night
The light is just a vision that you know
Light is filled with fire and the screams of those you love
Night is what the waking ones behold
Waking up is easy when the night leaves you alone
But every now and then the night will bind itself to bone
You'll see the world with different eyes, find darkness in the light
And listen for the song you've always known

I'm so happy, I'm going so far
Nobody sees me at all
You ignored us, you believe that we're gone
Nobody knows where we are
We're the reason for finding the stars
But nobody knows who we are
From the forest we've traveled so high
Just a matter of time till we fall
There's a reason we've waited so long
But a light clears a path through the fog

Aflame The Eyes
07:01
|
|
||
Nobody stays around me, and I'm looking for the light
I can see that you all surround me and your presence is on high
Who can see the future like you do?
Who can see the fountain of our youth?
Who can see your eyes? I cannot see your eyes
Who can see your eyes laid aflame
Soon I will see your eyes walk into your mind
Soon I will see your eyes laid aflame
Who could erase the future? Who could walk us through the door?
Who can impound the looters for their crimes upon the shore?
Who can save me when I'm drowning, who can hold me when I die?
Who can live without a future, who can survive?
Who can live without a future, who can survive?
Who can live before the mermaids come alive?
Who can live without a future, who can survive?
Who can swim across the ocean when we die?

Snake, It Lies

We can see you fall through the unknown
We can see you fall through the unknown
You became the snake, we became the became the phone
We can see you fall through the unknown
We can see the fires of blood and bone
We can read the lines you cut in stone
We can see your face, you are not alone
We can see you fall from the unknown
We can hear the songs you sing alone
And a quiet light shines from your home
We control your mind, we control the drones
We can see the end of the unknown
