Tracks



01. Regenerator

I rise from the withering night
New dawn brings the morning light
A thin veil falls gently from my eyes

A beam of light as the sun comes up
A gold flicker from a mountain top
Daybreak softening the sky

I feel alive as the morning comes
Regenerated by the warming sun
Tangerine rays come showering down
Everything shifting at the speed of sound

02. Mercury

Vanishing clouds flitter over a mountain
Above frozen fields
An amethyst glimmers beyond the horizon
A beacon as my feet leave the ground
Everything’s racing below me

Tied to the wind moving swiftly above me
Afloat on the breeze
Watching the meadows, they hasten below me
Unburdened as my feet leave the ground
Everything blurring before me

Holding on I’m racing towards the sun
Riding on the wavering winds above
Mercury unbridled by the sun

03. Hours

He was an anxious boy
A roving wandering thing
A drifter alone in the void
Each day goes racing by
The moment turning to stone
Just watching the time go
THE HOURS JUST TICKING AWAY

Now he’s an ardent man
A fervent scrambling thing
Still stumbling alone in the void
Hardened and ossified
He’s slowly turning to stone
How quickly the time goes
THE HOURS JUST SLIPPING AWAY

04. Interlude

As the morning rises I awake to meet the sun
I’m uncovering, I am awakening

Bathing in the morning light beneath the swaying trees
I am discovering

Golden fingers brush the night away
Bringing forth the beauty of the day

05. Mammoth

As I lift up my head
Tryin to find a place to rest
Marching through meadows dressed in white
Two halves to push along
Every day I venture on
Riding a mammoth through the snow
I’m leaving my old aimless days behind


My father was a faceless man
Leaving me a nameless man
Marching through meadows dressed in white
So I try to reach the hills beyond
Every day I venture on
Riding a mammoth through the snow
I’m trying to find a way out from the cold
Just wanna leave the past behind don’t wanna end up frozen on the vine

06. Avalon

In the evening as the sun dims down in auburn, amber glow
Whispers dance among the cool winds overhead
A delicate breeze to guide the way, I won’t make it alone
Lights fading as tide comes washing in, ferry me to Avalon

As I gaze into the violet clouds above me, floating away
I see a vision in the still mist overhead
An elegant breeze will guide the way, I can’t make it alone
Arms open as the tide comes washing in, ferry me to Avalon

I reach into the twilight overhead
The glowing horizon calling up ahead
The water rushes in to, carry me on
I’m hoping to find my way to Avalon

I reach into the twilight overhead
The glowing horizon calling up ahead
The water rushes in to, carry me on
I’m ready to find my way to Avalon
I drift into the moonlit sky above
I’m counting the memories till aurora comes
The water rushes over, carry me home
I’m ready to find my place in Avalon

07. Firmament

I wade, through the soil, I lift, my eyes above me
I look towards the stars, my guides, my distant companions

I have become, one with the stone
Everything’s one, renewed by the sun

Out of the loam, I rise, embraced by the ether
The river below, relieves, my hands of silver

I have become, one with the sky
Everything’s one, made new by the sun


I traveled so far, to find, the clouds wide open
How gentle the sun, redeems, the vapors around me

I have become, one with the great eternal blue sky
Everything’s one, under the firmament’s eye
