THE TOWER OF THE FOURTH LIVING CREATURE - LYRICS
The long winding road
Pass’d the treeline
Duskfall unresolved
Looming ivory walls
Breaking in
Steps that wear the path
Vibrant greys detail
The arrival
Veiled embrace
Inside the voices calling
From the unknown
I hear the voices calling
Black air that cuts through cold
Orchestras made of stone
Shadows build, archways crawl
Misty drapes tear and fall
Tomes of the gods
Tombs of the mortals calling
From catacombs
I hear the voices calling
Through the dust, scarce lit breath
Hear the marches of death
Shadows build, scratch and crawl
Misty drapes torn and fall (on me)
And the presence of God is known
Pale light falls on stone
Shadows fade, archways tall
Death’s embrace lingers on, leaving me
Blistering dawned skies
Sunbirds soar awry
Nectar of mortality
Dripping from the wreath of God
Resting on the shrine
Lifeblood drawn from nine
A sip, turns divine
Ascension beyond the sun’s rise

DREAMCATCHER - LYRICS
Caught up in a dream
State of mind eluded me
A tightly knit weave
Pacified the deepest seed
A vessel to twist dawn
Before my eyes
Fragile, full of sin
A spell stolen from the lies
That I told once again
She sang a song so faint and free
Close to the one I have
Seen in the dark of the dead sea
Pulling until I dive
Drowned in shallow scenes
Dreamcatcher hangs over me
A grip collapsing
Enveloping mist dies
In the tides of turmoil
Brought to this final point
And who holds it’s fate?
Left a shell upon the shore
The tides of wrath came back to mourn
Guided past the flood and moor
Pass the beast and feed on scorn
Trying to find the meaning of the day
Lying with the mirage to the rain
Seasons falter
And she knows I know
Endless landslide, can’t tell ash from snow
To satisfy the fascination
To live a life without a hint of fear
To peer into the empty glass and
Bare forth my fleeting soul

WICKER MIND - LYRICS
Wicker mind
That weaves around my soul
Burning still
A hazy path of gold
Across the fields
Full skies, tainted eyes
Surrounding
Deafening hymns devise
Chanting still, the dissonance speaks out to my name
One last plea, a whisper from the peak that curses the world to rain
Silently
The last word breaks and there
Peacefully
The final moments blare

FOR A TIME, I LOST MYSELF - LYRICS
Emboldened through dire season
Left without a reason to
Tread lightly on troubled water
Blazes burn hotter through you
Stints that sharpen, minds that glisten
Burdens that won't wait for you
Carried by the soul in wind tides
Wilting as the earth divides
For a time I lost myself
To the earth, the wind and sea
I believed I had a chance to pass
Trial by fire, and the last dance
For a time I lost myself
To conviction and clouds guarding
The way to reach a higher ground
You must taste the vibrance of earth to part

THEN COMES SLEEP - LYRICS
Happens every time
Every breath I take is shortened now
Leave it all behind
Embracing the cold winter sun
And awaiting spring
Left so restless now
Everything that was, turned to snow
Coming avalanche, take me from the ashes that I know
Take me from the
Sleepless nights, filled with ire
Take the rest of my life
Deafening sound, takes me down
Hearing their songs again
Free from inhibition, free to see
I’ve never been so fucking free
I'll never come down from this high
I’ll bleed myself dry
Winter upon me, blinding just like in my dreams
Taking me under
Where I'll never be at ease
Rest isn’t easy
Lying on the dying leaves
It keeps me under
Disillusionment, the fee
In the blizzard I find myself
Snowblind, sun high and yet unfelt
Gathered rust, built up like a glove
Drowning in the security, of
Empty gestures beneath the sky
In our madness, we ask not why
What it means to be mortified
Crack in the ice, hole in the sky
My last goodbye
They turned to me as if to say
It’s about time you lost your way
With forlorn pause upon my brow
Backing Vox: (And with my)
My last embrace, my final vow
The taste of spring upon my tongue
Yet frigid winter still rolls on
Perhaps I’ll lie right here a while
I lost my mind but I feel fine
