There's a point in time, and a space in time where the moons and suns entwine and balance
Every now and then silver beams escape and find their way to the heart of a man. 02. Find A Way (Or Make One)
I am enchanted by the tide
The mere anxiety for the ride Find a way or make one to be heard It's time to change On backs of beasts we ride Chaotic realms subconsciously defied We're changing snowflakes into water Bringing damaged cells to the slaughter I'm on this quest to seek the truth The scene is set for alteration Using my powers of infinite youth To dissolve the desolation Find a way or make one to be seen What's done can be undone On backs of beasts we ride Chaotic realms subconsciously defied We're changing snowflakes into water This journey's set to turn All human conscience back to live-and-learn Replacing liquid states with mortar I am a soldier in the know Leading a wishful path through the snow With head held high On backs of beasts we ride Chaotic realms subconsciously defied This journey's set to turn All human conscience back to live-and-learn Replacing liquid states with mortar 03. Yiri
Out of the desert sun
Cathedral vaults so immense Might even make an emperor lose his stature Wait! There's something in the air You might feel it yourselves A different chemistry among the brothers I am here to understand the words you're singing I know I'm a stranger As yet just a stranger to this circle The song's beguiling The brothers are smiling The distant feeling's gone The same reflections Profound intentions Have brought us closer Your proficiency in language increases our chance to map the unknown co-ordinates of our futures How to penetrate the mystery of second sight The words of a Yiri! A lifetime of travel compositions The song's beguiling The brothers are smiling United we'll be Searching for answers Merging to answer The holy questions of life Eyes looking down in prayer The song's beguiling The brothers are smiling United we'll be Searching for answers Merging to answer The holy questions Searching for reasons Merging to reason The holy questions of life 04. Lost In Myself
My weary soul's divided
I feel it questions all I am All I am The wavering inside it A free man versus caged inhabitant on his own land The mirrored face bewildered, a fierce contraction Reaction Lost in my self Lack or wealth Lost in my self and my mind The skills that I've been given A revelation? Devastation? Enforced eternity Designed by destiny My stand was never heard in this obscurity Lost in my self Lack or wealth Lost in my self and my mind 05. Dodecahedron
Out here at the timeline at lightspeed I travel although my thinking's barely moving
I'm recharging my senses Awaiting tomorrow One more place in time Just a flash and I'll be back on earth again Building dreams for free men Just a flash and I'll be part of life again Anywhen Out here at the timeline The dodecahedron retains the history we're living A second home for the detached with room for reflection Out of space and time Just a flash and I'll be back on earth again Building dreams for free men Just a flash and I'll be part of life again Anywhen I penetrate the aerosphere My destination's drawing near Through halls of myth and dreamy light The noise, the sand, the building site Just a flash and I'll be back on earth again Building dreams for free men Just a flash and I'll be part of life again Anywhen 06. Pyramids
Awaiting the sun
A monument of dreams to gaze upon Tomorrow's foretold A monument of grandeur will unfold In this starry night I take a sight at these unworldly structures In silence I cross to other worlds In my stargazing There's an entrance to something more than this Awaiting the sun A monument of dreams to gaze upon A new era's under way Tomorrow's foretold At the crucial break of day A monument of grandeur will unfold After ended warlike affairs we've turned our swords to plowshares In silence I tend to ask myself What's eternal? A delusion? A fluid state of mind? Awaiting the sun A monument of dreams to gaze upon When darkness turns to light Tomorrow's foretold A monument of grandeur will unfold And it's reaching for the sky Awaiting the sun Awaiting the sun Revealing's begun 07. Out Of Time
There's a fire within that may burn your skin
It can make you blind and leave the world behind Every night we pray that our hearts be taken by these forces of magic some day It may be today Long time gone My life was merely day by day A lone crusade through self-denial and delay The thought of something more kept me at war until my very mind was opened and out of time Opened and out of time When we spoke our words would take the form of a song While joined in laughter and tears, my sense of time had disappeared All the things we'd done meant nothing, once the ground we walked upon was replaced and out of Time Replaced and out of time Replaced and out of time There's a light to guide us Once we understand 08. Bloodoath
From the urge to seek my sources
I travel to restore and bring myself to break down the door I'm taken in by vicious forces to realms of death and horror Submersion into the underworlds at war Must face the madness though it hurts Must face the blackness though it hurts Mortal dread's become a drag on being one with my self I seem to struggle with defences and the infinity of man threatened by the vulnerable "I am" In every corner of my senses there's a will to alteration It's been haunting me ad nauseam Must face the madness though it hurts Must face the blackness though it hurts Mortal dread's become a drag on being one with my self If someone's out there I need a word for protection And if you're out there this oath of blood is bonded by affection Mortal dread's become a drag on being one with my self Mortal dread's become a drag on being one with all else Mortal dread's succumbed Mortal dread's succumbed 09. Ammonia Snow
I look out, the moon is rising
The only light of my experiment: Imprisonment I lost myself Lack of wealth I lost myself and my mind I needed time away to understand my deeds of yesterday It's now a matter of repentance This stay's about to turn my shady conscience back to live-and-learn To find the meaning of existence Engaged by deadly snowflakes I face a long and painful destiny Reality I lost myself Lack of wealth I lost myself and my mind I needed to address Chaotic realms so easy to possess I tripped and fell without resistance This stay's about to turn My shady conscience back to live-and-learn To find the meaning of existence 10. Options - Going Nowhere
It's a flaw, it's a crime
Sadly I've been fooled by time Thus dissolved by the rain the lethal shower of ammonia caught me unrestrained Nothing left to repent My vivid journey finally came to end As the Sphere caved in and left me in vain I'm going nowhere Le me out, hear my prayer I'm going nowhere Can't stand up, I'm trying to return to yesterday but my voice is numb and it won't obey Trains of thought through my mind How could I have been so blind? All I gained from my crusade was a premonition of my death only much too late Every time, every place comes to life within the inner space 'fore my mind gives in Exhausted by pain I'm going nowhere Le me out, hear my prayer I'm going nowhere Can't stand up, I'm trying to return to yesterday but my voice is numb and it won't obey Waiting there in the wings Knowing what the future would bring Patiently she watched him go from retraction to deep sorrow Disintegration began but sheltered under her wingspan His old heart clung to the bit of life that once was substance Saved in silence 11. A Lifetime To Share
Weightless in the morning light
I find myself awake Vaguely I recall the night My whole wide world at stake I failed, she came Broke into my game In another time with blessing in her hand She kneels before my bed and I'm supposed to understand Somewhat older Time weighs on her shoulders No one can see all the worlds the have travelled No on compares with their powers at hand All of the pieces that puzzled their journey are now in position to land No one can see it's a strange allegation Detached with only a lifetime to share The countdown has started for her expiration A precious but mortal affair Knowing that your hourglass has limited grains of sand defines our destiny I won't part with repetition. This is what I am I choose infinity I'll stay for long, But some day I'll be gone No one can see all the worlds the have travelled No one compares with their powers at hand All of the pieces that puzzled their journey are now in position to land No one can see it's a strange allegation Detached with only a lifetime to share The countdown has started for her expiration He's got all the time in the world to spare |
