Grounded
04:05
|

Held and bound
Feet on ground
I hear you call me
To the sound
Of higher life
A new beginning
A separate form of
Greater being
A host of moral size
And humanity
A reminder of the most
Embodied life in me
We don't remember
The hand that holds you
The one that held you
High above the ground
How do we remember
What it's like to be alive?
What's reminding us?
What's reminding us right now?
Embodied
Embodied deep in me
Embodied deep in you
It's the hand that holds you
High above the ground

Winter
04:46

You are laid down
To be, stolen
In mind of time
You will hold it
The grasp of winter holding me down
Sense seems to fade away
I could not find it
Outside and tired
You will hide it
So why did you take me
Inside your floral vine
You would (you see)
Unspoken (in me)
Holding (onto)
Hoping (for you)
The grasp of winter holding me down
Sense seems to slip away
I could not find it

Eterna
08:04
|
|||
Standing tall, amongst archaic
Not seen by those, undeserving
The sacrifices must be made
To keep the holy happy
This tree of Knowledge
The Tree of Life
Bathe in the water
And relive you past
Being thrown into open skies
The fear and awe
But an underlying sense of wondering
Consumes my every thought
Sailing, slowly, the astral glade
Seeking unknown
For the dying star
With xibalba life from death
Will bloom again

Event Horizon
06:13
|
|||
Distorted by time
Obscured by perceptive
The duality of being
Existential and sublime
Seeking context
From ancient text
Of the universal realm
And the current that connects us
The home of thought
The branches of contingency
Accessed by pineal eye
My essence no longer trapped
I have achieved my end
At last from within
All paths laid out
Passing by this presented future
Seeking context
From ancient text
Of the universal realm
And the current that connects us
Trapped in time
No way to go
All paths laid out

Release
06:09
|

Once more, again and again
You will tell me what you meant
You will lie and look in my eyes
Tell me of the whiteness of your eyes
You know hard ends start again
You know what you meant to have meant
You know you lie, you lie
You know your pretend intentions show
Release, breathe
Only when your pain subsides
Release, slowly breathe
Only when your pain subsides
What you had was in your hands
Didn't you mean what you meant
Couldn't you hear what you are to me
Couldn't you care to care for me
Release, breathe
Only when your pain subsides
Release, slowly breathe
Only when your pain subsides

Metanoia
07:16
|
|||
What I know is what I hold true
What I believe I justified
I left to see the world unfiltered
But what I saw I did not believe
I became the sun but then I died
My life, my body, but not my mind
The heavens peeled and the sky grew stale
I was chosen but I failed
Stripped of flesh and stripped of sight
I don't understand but I don't mind
Separating life and matter
A living souvenir, a life in pattern
What I know I justify
I became the but then I died
The heavens peeled and the world grew stale
I was chosen but I failed
But I failed...

Cistern
09:52
|
|||
Detached from any sense of reason
Reality does not match what I see
The consonance bereft in me
Runs back and forth and in-between
Disequilibrium manifesting in me
Pulling the balance of my temple
Like a black hole collapsing from the core
Beating this darkness in my head
Equilibrium collapses in me
This dark void filled with uncertainty
