Broken Ground
11:08
|
|||
Blindly I stumbled and crept through the thorns
Spilling tears of blood upon the ground
And as I wept, thorns turned to ash
It soaked into roots and riverbeds
I am reborn
Eyes open wide,
I am the unchained son
Eyes burning in the new white sun
Swallow this handful of dust
Let me kneel on shards of broken stone
Breathe in
Let me tread this broken ground with soles worn raw
Let my head split wide, let in the light
And let the light spill in a tide of newborn blood
Stretch out my arms, embrace the stars
Fingers trace now fading scars
Breathe in
I am the unchained son
Breathe in
New golden sun
Breathing in
I am the unchained son

Silent Temple

Run in circles
call your name
Hunted by many
scared eyes shine
Dazed and dim from your ancient fall
How could I lose your heart?
Where will I lay my hands to feel the rise and fall?
Where did you run to?
No safe haven here
The paths choked with your hunters
Where will you hide?
Cursing the fates that sever the ties
Cursing the careless and their ill, calloused hearts
Tears swell to my eyes
we embrace at last
To the silent temple we all return

Red Bough
11:05
|
|||
Our eyes grown dim with age
They see no more the sun, tarnished gold
Our tired hearts beat on
The red bough
Fallen at last
It's not so bad I'd say (it could be worse)
What once was our splendor faded grey
Like ghosts now, in empty halls
Rotting blood sticks fast in veins
Let me now return to womb of earth
The ceaseless worm devours all
The red bough
Fallen at last

Not here, not now
How did it come to this?

Awful Feast
04:15
|
|||
Feast not on this
Drink not from this cup
Out into the light
look back not in wrath
Feast not on this
Drink not from this cup
Feast not on this
Drink not from this

Beggar's Hand
08:17
|
|||
These broken hands cast into...
These broken hands
Dig through clay to bury bones
of dead long gone
Say a prayer to future winds
Say a prayer
I cast threads
Space expands
Heart expands
Throw back father's fist
Shed the scars
Scrape off the blood
of mother's womb
Scrape off the blood
