One Whisper
08:48
|
|||
Outside the frame
of the vision I’ve ignored
I trust my brain
to deceive me evermore
I never let it go
What am I waiting for?
Outside the frame
I’ve been static for too long
In place of pain
take this answer and leave the world alone
I never let it go
Maybe I could have fought
the thoughts that kill
and gotten out before
One whisper is all I hear
Seductive piece of fear is all I need to breathe
It shatters the crystal heart,
all I’m taught to feel
Exhale and be at peace
Now my body’s brought to heel
So follow one last empty threat
with empathy
Hollow be my final breath
Release me, apathy
Empty of mind, present of heart
I’m free from my own guilt
The shell I create, unyielding
outside the frame
One whisper to break my fall
One whisper to keep my bristled hands grounded here
I’d have taken a return to Earth
away from her dead stare
One whisper sprout from the glare of her furrowed brow
You can see the roots of her silence
And feel them grasp for air
One whisper, it never let me go

Whence Shall I
06:43

Whence shall I
Bend over, exert myself
to some outer limit
Where pain exists, beyond
Within lies one
deep breath of relief
As I move the sweat
from my forehead to my forearm
The sun is too hot
but I am too strong
To stop here, keep keeling over
To lay my head to rest
Not today, not today, not yet

Surrender
11:09
|

I can see the height of life, of consciousness
From my hidden perch, an epiphany
Like the first light of day, opened my soul
And filled it with beauty
We planted this garden
Whose songs you had me sow
Together we harvest, and better they grow
With my sight and your power…
We knew what there was to know
Left alone in the path of God
I surrender my body
My life on this Earth
And for it, my mistake in judgment
Has left me shrouded in doubt
I wander through the memory
of the day my spirit broke
And vividly now I recall
how I poured my grief-stricken water
Time don’t heal every wound
But it set me free
Loyal to every fault
And it’s killing me
Have you felt the weight of time, a burden
On my careless flight through eternity
Like the last breath of night, there’s solace in dawn
For all those who seek it

Torrent of Flame
07:57
|
|||
Raging torrent of flame
Your voice is the sound of anguish
of undying love,
unyielding feeling
It screams from within
the cavern of light that is my heart
How I long for this Earthly dance
to be seared in parallel
two standing pillars of flame
They find themselves grounded here
Burning with passion
and yet blind to the other
You saw me too, my blue hand in yours
Yet this what I choose
The anguish I knew, I still let it happen
Don’t ever tell no one the truth
You saw me, and I held on tight
And all I felt was the heat of your hand (it burned mine)
You saw the chain around my neck
And pulled it tight
The answers in your palm
are just as true as mine

Until My Will Is Gone
07:47
|
|||
I lay down my arms
My tools, my weapons too
I beg of you, you ghosts of lives passed
Forgive me, forgive me
For years I tried to fight those most painful memories
Of what I’ve done and where I’ve been
They made me what I am
And yet I’d trade it all
I swear again
My body means nothing
I swear it one last time
Let it rot, let it die for all I care
My body means nothing
Let me gasp for air one last time
...and take from me the earth
on which I kneel and pray
The furnace of bones conceals me
From desperate attempts to surrender
I search for the key every second I live
to show I’ve closed my eyes
Convinced to resign, my heart may be
But my soul won’t give itself up
Until my will is gone
I’ve given you all that I can
What more does it mean to surrender my body, my mind?
I swear again
My body means nothing
Will you give me one last chance to set you free?
I lay down my arms in surrender
My tools, my weapons too; will you forgive me?
What she demanded from me is not mine to give
My soul’s alone, until my will is gone

Into the Spoke of Night
06:52
|

My horse aflame
I am the eyes in the night
Through the fog of time
he carries me
Faith, take these reigns!
and string them through my crown
He is the sail to my soul
And we storm with passion
I tried to break the wheel
My golden path turned gray
Heart wet with pain
Have I dove into a net?
Planted seeds of hate
from within me?
I thought the sudden jolt
was a current of light
Relieving me of the burden
of being your new eyes
But when those loving rays -
- they pulled me out of mind
The color gone, and blind I fell
into the spoke of night
