Rosetta - A Determinism Of Morality lyrics



Tracks



01. Ayil

A prayer unheard
Followed a shift
In sound
A moment
And a chance
Can you hear it?
It's calling you
To bare
A weakness to the world
Have they answered
The prayers of home?

Mechanically they speak
Through rusty chords lost
Lost at sea
Unyielding tides
Weeping in hands
Carries on
A tribal woe

Release
Revolve
Renew

Did your voice cast shadows
Cast ash on skin
A wound that grew
From within
A rhythm and rhyme
Planting on borrowed time

Release
Revolve
Renew
Rebuild again

Yet this spore cast ash on skin
A wound that flows from within
A rhythm and a rhyme
Planting on borrowed time

02. Je N'en Connais Pas La Fin

For every pass
Of this moon
Embers wait
Commune
A dawn's harvest

Spores
Burrowing
Ash
Covering

My world
My home
My loves
My memories

So tell me how I've come so far
Repression of memories
Behind a door best kept shut
Suppression of daily deeds
A crushing venom weeping
Into these hands
A plague upon a frame
Growing on the inside
Withering a simple sullen home

Plague upon the frame
Crawling from within
Simple sullen home
Withering away
Locked behind a door
Of secrets best kept shut
Crushing venom wept
Right into the hands
Plague upon the frame
Crawling from within
Withering away
Simple sullen homes

Won't you play
Your trumpet well
Gabriele

Let this go

Won't you play
Your trumpet well
Gabriele

And pray that I can rest

Spores
Burrowing
Ash
Covering

Spores
Burrowing
Ash

04. Release

Heavenly bounded by time
Cast shadows at ice seas
Transmit data encode
A final message for beloved
A withering on me
The withering of me now
So sound your horn without me
Please lay your hands before I go
Lay your hands
Sound your horn
Let this go
The iron core set to implode
The withering on me
The withering of me now

"The problem with now is no matter how much we want it to, it doesn't last forever"

A withering
From within
A spore casting on this skin
And if I sing with hollowed hands will burrowing cease

Radio waves
Hollowed hands holding me still
Hollowed hands
Burrowing into
Radio waves
Saturn is
Sing me to sleep

05. Revolve

With your hands wide open
Release
An energy
Scatter
Scatter ember

With your hands wide open
Renew the days we all thought lost
Renew the days
Let go
Release revolve renew

Renew
Hollowed hands become those
Those of the sand
I'll sing you a song of relief
Ye of no woes
A solar flare from afar
Transmission data encode

06. Renew

Lay
Your hands on
Me
Sound your horn
The moments and places
Scattered in the white light
And the first will be the last one

Ash
Burrowing
Ashes
Crawling

07. A Determinism Of Morality

Slowly release revolve renew
And I'm now the last of my kind
Slipping in and out of this world
By the grace of god we speak in tongues
When the borrowed time is all I have
Slip back
This world a part of me from you
By the grace of god we speak in tongues tonight
With outstretched hands towards you

Slowly reseed
Give us your hands

By the grace of god you saved us all
By the ending of you
Slowly reseed
With tongues we speak this night

Slowly reseed
Heavenly descended

Scatter the embers with your hands wide open

Slowly reseed
Scatter the ember

With your hands wide open
Scatter
Scatter
Scatter
Scatter the ember
