Tracks



01. Oblivion

I flew beyond the sun before it was time
Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell
Waiting for you to pull me back in
I almost had the world in my sight

Lost love
Bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I've failed
Tell you I failed

Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion

I tried to burrow a hole into the ground
Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hand
The eyes of a child see no wrong
Ignorant bliss impending doom

Lost love
Bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I've failed
Tell you I failed

Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion

Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion

02. Divinations

It's gone away, it's gone away, it's gone for good
And the spirit's shouting come Karelia
A primitive child of brilliant light, her magnet of wisdom is pulling
Pulling faster, the fabrics of time

No escape, binding spirits
No escape, trapped in time and space
Rabid descendants, a wormhole is entered

The sin of calypso surrounds me
The fire's dancing in the silvery sea of breath
Black rune, it directs me
Summoning the soul of the specter

No escape, binding spirits
No escape, trapped in time and space
Fire in the eye reminiscing majesty

No escape, binding spirits
No escape, trapped in time and space
Fire in the eye reminiscing majesty

03. The Bit

This is for cows
It's not for the size of me
Into my mouth
Nine-hundred and fourteen

Try some force
Try to lead
The foundling die is close determinate
Raise head and stomp the blood
I'm not even sound raid

I'm alive
I got the silver
And I wonder
What will you follow?
When your head is not in order
And I'm stomping your little

How can you laugh
How can you lie awake
Making me drive
Making my heart ache
Not too fat
Not to lean /
The foundling die, is close excitedly
Raise head and stomp the blood
I'm not even soundly

I'm alive
I got the silver
And I wonder
What will you follow?
When your head is not in order
And I'm stomping your little

04. Colony Of Birchmen

This forest is growing faster than I can tell
Cell structure eats away at a massive swell
Seems however I'm a victim of circumstance

Hunt for ogres and dwarfs
Lion slicer
Run with death
Run with death

White faces coming closer with every step
Earth envelopes taking breath without happenstance
Carve my teeth out ripping through the sheep's head curse

Hunter gatherer
Ridden from the cave
Run with death
Run with death

Gone away
My heart's gone away
Taking everything
My heart's gone away
Take it now

Hunt for ogres and dwarfs
Lion slicer
Run with death
Run with death

Gone away
My heart's gone away
Taking everything
My heart's gone away
Take it now
