歌词


1. REENTRY

The wait is over - the time is now
I’m about to lay it all down
So are you in or are you out?

I’ve heard them say it all
"You can’t walk before you crawl”
"No risk no reward”
Fuck them all I hear nothing
Fuck the walk I hit the ground running
I’ll keep moving in search of more

I’m walking a line that keeps shifting
Steady feet but my balance is drifting
In search of myself I leave my heart at home
Get my head on the road and my spirit on the roam

I don’t feel I’m in control
Like I want to
Like I need to
I can feel it take it's toll
It might kill me I know but I’ll never let it go

Maybe it’s the doubt that pulls me under
Making its way beneath my skin
We play an endless game that
I don’t know if I can win


2. SIGNS OF LIFE

I'm drifting out
I'm struggling to keep my place in this conversation
You're speaking now but I've heard it all before and I'm losing patience

Through these endless nights spent searching for signs of life
Looking for a reason to keep believing that I can't seem to find
You're in my sights but you're out of your mind

So say what you mean and mean just what you say
(Show me something real)
I promise you can't be any worse than me
Just give me something that I can feel

Through these endless nights spent searching for signs of life
Looking for a reason to keep believing that I can't seem to find
Speak now 'cause you're running out of time

Cold bones sitting silently on shallow thrones
Sewn mouths speak softly in hollow drones
You want to feel what it means to be free
So lets go open up to me

Tell me your hopes, tell me your fears tell me your worst
We all crave a deeper connection
Tell me something I haven't heard
To see myself in your souls reflection

I know you're holding back from me
It's written all over your face
Swing away, leave your mark, take me right back to the start
I know you're hiding back from me
It's hidden for all to see
(I know you're holding back)
Search for signs of life


3. SENTINEL

My son I just want you to know
That I'm sorry I had to go
Please don't try to understand it
Flying high but I've crash landed
I was there by your side with a heart full of pride as I watched you grow

And if you need my voice just listen to my songs
My spirit on display through chords, melodies and poems
And if you need my comfort just take the hand of your brother
Please look after your mother she loves you like no other

I’ll see you on the other side
For now I’ll be your guiding light
If you need me just breathe deep and look inside
Because in time you’ll find we are both the same by design

My son I just want you to know
That I’d give it all away just get back home to you
But life moves fast so hold on and strap in
Don’t ever slow down dig deep and sing

I’ll see you on the other side
For now I’ll be your guiding light
If you need me just breathe deep and look inside
Because in time you’ll find we are both the same by design

You will never be alone

Promise me you will make the most of this life
Promise me you will always be by their side
I promise you I am looking down on you
I promise you although I’m gone through it all I’ll be your sentinel
So remember when you sit and you listen
That you are the best song I’ve ever written

I’ll see you on the other side
For now I’ll be your guiding light
If you need me just breathe deep and look inside
Because in time you’ll find we are both the same by design


4. GHOSTS

Feel their presence
Echoes from the space that's lost in time
I hear their message
The past spirals endlessly intertwined
So I will listen to these ghosts
Step through the field to make me feel at home
We're chasing shadows on this dawn
So they keep whispering
Dimension shifting
The presence will consume the soul

Try to now escape your skin
As we are walking in our sleep
And as I watch them claim my kin
I will hold you tightly if only to let go

Why mother, why?
Would you leave us here to swallow illusive fear?
We're on our own so I'm coming home
Do you feel their presence?
We are the ghosts

Within ascendance
Behold the host
We're the descendants
We are the ghosts

I'll write a message on the back of my eyelids so they can see
I feel their presence
Whispering wakes verities
Just let go fall to your knees

Within ascendance
Behold the host
We're the descendants
We are the ghosts

Do you still think you're on your own?
You'll never be alone because you were always home


5. SURRENDER TO THE SPIRAL

Surrender to it feel the reality starting to grip
I stand firm as it hits
Although I know I can handle this
Go with the flow
So grow and just learn from it
The fear now lifting, drifting away
The colours they shift displaying arrays
The power was always yours to influence

Somehow, someday
You will see beyond this haze
You can choose to participate
Don't wait for your should to be sold
Control your fate

Get your head in the ground
Get a better view as you ascend to a greater truth
Let it take you
Never settle
Let the pressure project you, perfect you
Reconnect and affect you
Weather the storm
Stay strong it's vital
Shit’s about to go viral
Surrender to the spiral

Silence is screaming
So we chase the distant glow
You're not going home
There's everywhere to go
So just keep whispering to the night

We're chasing voices the dark
Awake
And surrender to the spiral
We've never been so far apart
Awake
And surrender to the spiral


6. LIGHT CIRCLES

Have you ever felt stranded in a word you don’t belong?
Incapable of ever reaching the stars
Brilliant colours surround me
Atmosphere change now I can surface to breathe

Now I’m moving at the speed of light
My energy burns bright

I run my hands through the aether
Watch the light filter through my fingers
In this moment I know I am anything I can be
I am everything
I am free

No I'm moving at the speed of sound
My energy unbound

Earth born
You’ve reached your destination
Star bound
It’s time for you to go home
Do you remember the night we spent at the edge of the world
Looking up at the stars trying to figure out who we are
But there are some things we’re not meant to know
Take me home

Now I'm moving and I can't slow down
My energy unbound
