Revelations

Here comes the moon again
Our seeds are scattered to the wind
All the cows have fallen down
But I will stay here 'til the end
You never wanted to believe
Your memories could be replaced
Now all your fears have been relieved
And all the years have been erased
You've proved to everyone
You are the master of your pain
But you will see a morning soon
When tears will come to drown the rain
I've wandered endlessly
Searching for your castle by the sea
My stars deserted me
So I imagined I was free
Now seven mornings from today
The river will decide my fate
This wind will carry me away
My remedy arrived too late
I am converted now
My arrow broken on the floor
Now there is no one left to blame
I let my doom in by the door
Let all the children come and see
What remains for us to be
Their twisted pattern is revealed
Just before the door is sealed
I hear the maddening refrain:
'No one may remain'

After the End
05:38

I was standing on the wall
Staring out across the sea of grass
I remember when you rose
From the ruins of the palaces of glass
Lo, lo, lo!
When the rains came
And the ruin reigned
Chalices of lead
Pour the wine before you go to bed
Lo, lo, lo!
We were never meant to be here
A fire from the day you were born
Light a candle in the chapel if you can
Tomorrow we will ride
Lo, lo lo!
Where will you go?
The star you follow falls into the snow
A field of rotting wheat
The earth has turned to sand beneath our feet

Adventures
05:52
|

I was crawling through the desert with a mouth full of sand
When the cool clear water poured right into my hands
I thought that I could hold it but I held on too tight
And it ran between my fingers and burned up in the light
I know I've been here before
This road brought me right back to my own front door
In the end
'Til the cycle starts again
When you go into the forest and the mist comes in
You forget where you started and everywhere you've been
Soon you forget what your name used to be
And everywhere you look you see nothing but trees
Then the spiders come down and they get you in their webs
'Til you're wrapped up tight so you might as well be dead
Then the skeletons all come up out of the ground
And their bones piling up it's a terrible sound
It's the end
Then the cycle starts again
Down in the underworld time gets weird
You go down there for a week you might be gone six years
And all the dark shadows in the corners of your mind
Are standing right in front of you and sneaking up behind
I feel like I've been lost down here so long
I may never get back home

Prayer
05:54
|

|
Face to the ground
Palms to the sky
I give my life into thy hands
Look on me kindly once more
And show me not thy rage
I am a desperate man
I'll do what I must do
Oh let me hear thy voice
Oh let me be thy hand
Love that destroys
Lend me your eyes
Let me wield thy flaming sword
Even the blood of my heart
Can only do thy will
Hundreds and thousands I've seen you mow them down like the corn
Here in thy season of death
My life can now be born
Wolf in the wood
Ox in the field
Where is the place for one like me?
Wandering endlessly here
Beneath the circling stars
Only in service to thee my heart will find its home
No sweet companion on earth
Can shield me from the wind

Grief Song
05:00
|
|||
|
Days are falling down like raindrops
Time is running down my face
Years are piling up around me
Time has buried me in place
How can I explain
The fire in my heart
Is burning me alive
How long must I wait
For my doom to arrive

One Day I Will Rest
04:48
|
|||
|
One day I will rest
When my struggle here will be done
Leave my armor to rust
And let my bones turn white in the sun
Oh how I've longed for that day
Broken crushed and weary
Why must I wear this mask of clay
When will you release me
