1. BLIND

Take away my vision,
Shine your darkest light into my eyes.

I'm blind to your obsession,
You hide your weakness behind cold confession.
"Forgive me father for I have sinned"
Just take a look what a mess
Your faith has put you in.

I can feel no guilt when the eye of the storm
Is blind to what is wrong inside my mind.
I once believed indefinitely
And I could forgive myself.

Take away my wisdom,
Place your darkest thoughts into me.
Take away my vision,
Shine your darkest light into my eyes.

You're cold and I'm corroding,
You're blind to my weakness for someone all-knowing.
How can I believe when I've not seen?
Just take a look what a mess
My faith has put me in.

I can feel no guilt when the eye of the storm
Is blind to what is wrong inside my mind.
I once believed indefinitely
When I could forgive myself.

Take away my vision,
Shine your darkest light into me.
Take away my vision,
Place your darkest thoughts into my mind.

Now I feel the guilt when the eye of the storm
Is wise to what I've done inside my mind.
I will believe indefinitely,
But I can't forgive myself.


2. BLACK SEED

Thirsty seeds won't grow without celestial flow
From the blood of the earth,
Or tears of the gods bring forth life.

Burning tree, ash in the breeze, land on fire.
Human desire for rising flames,
Blackened remains, all is still.

Rising through the earth
And let the light summon birth,
Reaching arms to the sun.
Or beckoned by God, brings forth life.

Falling tree, death in the leaves, land in pain,
All in vain of wounded hearts.
Scattered remains, all is still.

Life, endless paradise
Bound to a destined demise.
Come alive, dancing in the wind,
Beauty tainted by sin.

Sin of man, don't bite the hand that feeds,
Respect the tree that gives you air to breathe.
Resist the need to feed, the black seed of human greed
Is the curse that holds us in its grasp.
But nature will prevail,
Will nature prevail?
Only time will tell if nature will prevail!

Endless paradise,
Bound to a destined demise.

I'm still alive, dancing in the wind.
Beauty tainted by sin, tainted by sin.

Standing free, hope in the trees, breath of life.
Nature's desire for healing scars
The forest remains, all is still.

4. SLEEPING THOUGHTS WAKE

Shades of grey shape the room
In which she lies,
Raindrops on the windowpane
Keep her awake.

Shades of her mind
Shape the world she sees.
Lost in fading daylight,
She entered her dreams.

Tears of fire cascade from the sea,
The sound falling through the earth
Pulls me to its core.

Free me from this black hole,
Help me regain control of my reality.
Sleeping thoughts wake,
My visions oppressing me.

Trapped inside this raging mind,
Drawn between opposing worlds,
She abhorred her lost soul.

Tears of earth cascade from the sea,
The sound falling through the fire
Pulls me to its core.

Splintered, sragmented heart,
Spirits are torn apart.
She lost her reality,
Sleeping thoughts wake
And entered her fantasy.

Where am I?
What is this feeling?
My sleeping thoughts awakening.
When will my conscious thoughts sleep?

I'm alive in my dreams,
In my dreams I am free.

Wonders I have never heard,
I see a magical world below.

Let your senses become one.
For the first time I am now awake.

I don't want to go, this is not the end.
When can I return? Will I see you again?

Drawn back to this wretched world,
She abhorred her lost soul.

Tears of sea cascade from the earth and fire,
Falling through the sound pulls me to its core.
This is not the end...


5. SOULS

Draw back the curtains, there is light,
Our mystery shall be revealed.
Like a raindrop falling from the sky,
We'll merge with the ocean of souls.

Nothing in the distance,
Can't you see your journey's end?
Only existing as a memory.

Life is free, make the most
Of what'cha got before it costs.
Fly with the wind, don't be
Chained down by your doubts.
Plant the seed, feed the need
That breeds inside you.

And we will never turn to stone,
Our spirit will travel beyond.
If you're searching for the answers,
You will find there is no proof.

Feel the void, it waits,
Bound by man's fate.
Flesh will rot inside the tomb,
No return from death.
Embrace the end, solitary entrapment.
Souls cascade, time dissolves,
Embrace your fate.

Elevate, ascend beyond your mind,
Submerge with the stream of life.
From this mortal zenith we inhale,
We gaze on the valley of life.

Everyday must close,
I have turned to stone,
Existing as a memory.
Time dictates our end.

White light pulls me, shines on my memory.
Intrigue draws me, mortal mystery.
Mist engulfs me, clouds our history,
Elation guides me, senses in harmony.


6. SNOW

Mind open wide as I awake,
I sense a change within the air.
Hope fills my soul, I realise.

Rising to see what lies ahead,
Frost tainted pain calling my name.
Come and feel what I can see.

Frozen tears come to me,
Echoes of a long lost memory
(Gift of winter's dance)
Gift of winter's dance,
Angels floating down.

Dancing alone I celebrate,
Cascades of white exhilarate,
Breath dissipates into the mist.

Fingers of ice creep onto me,
I feel the chill sneak into me.
Come and hear what I can see.

Someone's calling (someone's calling me)
Someone's calling (someone's calling me)
Snow is falling (angels falling free)
Angels falling (winter's dance is here).

Come to me mortal, feel the wrath of winter.
Hear me, set me free, spread my misery.

Frozen land, be still, feel the wrath of winter.
Curse thee, ever be under my spell for eternity.

Feel my rage, the anger within,
Fear my need to rip you apart,
I will climb to set things right.

Your curse won't pass as long as I stand.
I have risen victorious,
Seasons will return.
(Sun unleash your light)
Sun unleash your light
(Guide me to my home)
Guide me to my home.

Rays of golden light,
Praise! The new beginning has arrived.

Seeds of nature grow, I see roots of change
Break through the curse of the snow.
Sky is open wide, bring me floods of liquid light!

Sun has returned,
Spreading light and warmth around us.
Celebrate 'till the end
And the land will grow again.

Burn fire burn, light the faces of the elders
As we dance, as we sing, celebrating till the end.

La la la la la
Oh oh oh

Wine overflows
From the barrels of the vineyards
As we drink, as we smoke
And the herbs will grow again.

Drunk with delight,
Where the laughter is contagious,
Rivers flow, flowers grow
And the land is born again.

La la la la la
Oh oh oh

Peace at last, curse has passed,
Seasons flow, we run free.
Time restored, winter waits,
When it calls, we'll embrace.
Peace at last, curse has passed,
Seasons flow, we're running free.
