The Guardian
02:03
|
|

There once was a man
Who lived among the trees
He wore a long white beard
And carried out his deeds
Never asking for
Anything in return
He learned to listen to the forest (to the forest)
He learned to smell what the soil had to tell (had to tell)
He befriended all of the beasts for he was to become
The forest guardian (the forest guardian)

The Forest Has Eyes

Whatever he touches, he hurts
There is so much love all around him
The earthly mother gave him all
His delusions of grandeur turned into guilt
Between the spark and the ember
Your story is told
Nothing more than a shooting star
In endless night skies
You are a star
Yet I am the sky
The stars fade
The sky holds on
The trees decay
Yet the forest blossoms
All humans will fall
Yet their children live on
Open your mind
The forest has eyes
Insights broke through his mind
Like a flood through a rusty dam
It hurt, he was in pain
Where he walked
Grass will never grow again
Where he fasted
No one will ever feast again
The human was blind
The forest has eyes
The stars fade
The sky holds on
The trees decay
Yet the forest blossoms
All humans will fall
Yet their children live on
Open your mind
The forest has eyes
The forest has eyes
Tears are running
Towards the ever giving ground
Trying to seek
A communion of their own
Looking back
Everywhere he saw
His own idiocy
He had to become
His own mind’s refugee
He had to become
His own mind’s refugee

Oracle Of Sand
06:06
|
|

Into the desert he wandered
Aimless, he did not know
What he was looking for
Only that is how he could find her (find her)
Confused, she welcomed him
In her lair
Belly dancer
With the most wondrous eyes
Of the most wondrous kind
He had never seen before
He had never even dreamed of before
Was she human?
He didn't know
He did not even care
Her eyes - abysmal
Her hips - paralysing
He did not fear
He had lost it all
He felt lifeless
At the end of his hope
She was lifeless too
Yet he saw
She was deathless
Untouchable
She was the oracle of the sand
He felt lifeless
At the end of his hope
She was lifeless too
Yet he saw
She was deathless
Untouchable
She was the oracle of the sand
He could no longer wait
Had been restless all his life
With heart pounding
The old man fell on his knees
In front of the wondrous dancer
She exhaled
From her pipe
Smoke creeping up on him
Surrounded
He took in
While she danced and he...
And he fell (fell)
Black tar breathing
Fixated in nothingness
There is no teacher
Like staring into death
She grinned back
A giant made of shadows and smoke
Her shapes expressing
An ageless song
In the depth, he took a good look at deathlessness
He was exposed to wisdom’s breast
There is no teacher
Like staring into death (into death)
The oracle had spoken
The trip was reversed
He fell back up
Into the world
He felt lifeless
At the end of his hope
She was lifeless too
Yet he saw
She was deathless
Untouchable
She was the oracle of the sand
He felt lifeless
At the end of his hope
She was lifeless too
Yet he saw
She was deathless
Untouchable
She was the oracle of the sand

Manta Rays

I’m feeling weightless (weightless)
There is a peace (there is a peace)
In the depth of the ocean
Giants (giants)
Above me
With manta rays
In the depth of the sea
How can I still fall
When I’m already down
Humans sink deeper
Not stopped by the ground
I’ve lost my light
No trust in nature
Gentle giants fly
Above me
Wondrous ancients
Like devil’s angels
Surround me
I’ve given in to
The pull from the deep
I’m feeling weightless (weightless)
There is a peace (there is a peace)
In the depth of the ocean
Giants (giants)
Above me
With manta rays
In the depth of the sea
With manta rays
I’ve lost my light
I feel the peace
With manta rays
How can I still fall
When I’m already down
Humans sink deeper
Not stopped by the ground
I’ve lost my light
No trust in nature
Gentle giants fly
Above me
Wondrous ancients
Like devil’s angels
Surround me
I’ve given in to
The pull from the deep
I’m feeling weightless (weightless)
There is a peace (there is a peace)
In the depth of the ocean
Giants (giants)
Above me
With manta rays
In the depth of the sea
I’m feeling weightless (weightless)
There is a peace (there is a peace)
In the depth of the ocean
Giants (giants)
Above me
With manta rays
In the depth of the sea
With manta rays
I’ve lost my light
I feel the peace
With manta rays

Into the light
Of the sunrise
It seems like I
See paradise
I cannot reach
What I deserve
I am forced
To return
I’m falling
I’m falling back
I’m falling back
Compressed into dark
The walls caving in
Day by day wearing
My soul and my skin
Wherever I go
Wherever I flee
Cold black stone is all I see
To rise above
I’m still too proud
I’m doomed
To fall below
I’m not allowed
I’m cursed to live
And figure it out
And figure out
Into the light
Of the sunrise
It seems like I
See paradise
I cannot reach
What I deserve
I am forced
To return
I’m falling
I’m falling back
I’m falling back
Into the light
Of the sunrise
It seems like I
See paradise
I cannot reach
What I deserve
I am forced
To return
I’m falling
I’m falling back
I’m falling back

The Crown
03:05

Humble reign
High on a throne
Vertigo
Chained to the crown
All hail the king
For he must descend
They’re waiting for his fall
Bring him to an end
They’ve been waiting for his fall (waiting for his fall)
The throne has been denied (throne has been denied)
Humble reign
High on a throne
Vertigo
Chained to the crown
All hail the king
For he must descend
They’re waiting for his fall
Bring him to an end
The ground is shaking as he moves
They’ve been waiting
Fragments breaking out of youth
Now it’s time
Matter fading into truth
He has been waiting
Fragments breaking out of youth
Towards the timeless

Procession
04:07

Bury myself
This is the answer
To a question no one ever dared to ask
Shed off myself
It’s a procession
An operation that requires precision and confession
He drowned in shallow waters
Of his guilt, blunt senses, a living stagnation
He has walked all the paths
Known to men, his forefathers never even dared to chart
It was in this moment
He had nowhere else to go
This is a confession
It was in this moment
He decided to let go
This is a procession
My childhood, my dreams
He gave it all to sink in the sea
Everything that I’ve worked for so hard
All the pain, all these years
All the pain, all these tears
He gave it all to sink in the sea
(Sink in the sea)
Everything that I’ve worked for so hard
(Sink in the sea)
I’ve worked so hard
(Sink in the sea)
All the pain, all these years
Follow myself
It’s a procession
Into unknown sources of one’s very own creation
This is the art of dying
To the world, to origins of one’s self-denying
Cleansing and purifying
From memory, patterns of destruction and dividing
It was in this moment
He had nowhere else to go
This is a confession
It was in this moment
He decided to let go
This is a procession
My childhood, my dreams
He gave it all to sink in the sea
Everything that I’ve worked for so hard
All the pain, all these years
All the pain, all these tears
He gave it all to sink in the sea
(Sink in the sea)
(Sink in the sea)
(Sink in the sea)
(Sink in the sea)
(Sink in the sea)
(Sink in the sea)
(Sink in the sea)
Sink in the sea

Darkest Night
04:31

|

On a celestial rise
Every step closer to myself
Human arise
Slowly, I’m looking past the veils
Escorted by snakes
Blocking my way
back to safety
The ridges, so steep
But I am long past the point of no return
A fat bird landed
Right above my head
Moving its wings rather morbidly
It spoke to me in tongues all too familiar
From the world that I had once left behind
The fat bird grinned at me and made me a most important offer
"Do you want me to fly you back home with me
To take you down from this mountain
Back to safety, and away from these snakes?"
He was standing at the edge of the world
He was standing at the edge of the world
The bird, the snake
The leap of faith
The fear, the steep drops
To all sides
A sea of snakes
Surrounding the mountain
No further steps can be done
Time has halted
For one last breath
There is only one thing left to do
There are no more steps to take
There is only a choice
Looking down into his fears
Looking up to the bird, to the way out
He chose his destination
And I will jump into the sea of snakes
Go!
Faster
Break my shackles
Conquer myself
I fly through the darkest night
I've conquered myself

I’m soaring away
Through the world
The universe
Endless light
The sky falls
Yet he holds on
The forest decays
He still blossoms
All humans have passed
And he lives on
And he lives on
I’m soaring away
Through the world
The universe
Endless light
I’m soaring away
Through the world
The universe
Endless light
The sky falls
Yet he holds on
The forest decays
He still blossoms
All humans have passed
And he lives on
And he lives on
The sky falls
Yet he holds on
The forest decays
He still blossoms
All humans have passed
And he lives on
And he lives on
The sky falls
Yet he holds on
The forest decays
He still blossoms
All humans have passed
And he lives on (he lives on)
And he lives on
