Strange Delight
06:08
|
|||
Do you see the
Space behind the door
There's a crack
Running through the floor
Through it see
The seeds of malcontent
Leaving nothing
Left to lament
Of the first but
Never the last
What is seen
Is not in the past
From the seas
Of ignorant abyss
Accursed things
That will go amiss
Come back to the fallen light
Where phantasms draw the sacred right
Mingled in scents of some strange delight
Feel the tensions slowly rise
Hear the chant signal something nigh
Close your eyes and maybe you will fly
Think of the things
From when you were before
There is nothing
Left in the floor
But the breeze
Still howls at your intent
Through the eaves
And from far descent
In the dark the
Colours will be cast
From the things
That have no contrast
But these things
Will pull you to remiss
And they'll say
That it feels like bliss
Come back to the fallen light
Where phantasms draw the sacred right
Mingled in scents of some strange delight
Frolic to your hearts content
But don't show them that you're dissident
Or you'll see some things you can't invent
Feed back to the omens
Though some things go unspoken
If you're lucky you'll be chosen
Think of what is left to do
Time is running out in front of you
No time left to take in the

Ripple
04:31
|

Our winds change
Nothing stays the same
See the street light
In the rain
Illuminating
through the haze
The bad decisions
That we'll make today
The wave returns
To the ocean
Just part of the
Cosmic motion
Everything returns
To you and me
Just a tiny ripple
In infinity
Feel the ripple
Passing through your mind
What do you see inside?
Feel the ripple
Passing through your mind
What do you see inside?
Look with me
And you will be
Staring over
The eternal sea
Seeing only
What you want to see
High in the branches
What is there to be?
Nothing has any
Certainty
Could we be
Within a dream
Certain of only
You and me
Now let's just sit
Under the tree
Feel the ripple
Passing through your mind
What do you see inside?
Feel the ripple
Passing through your mind
Why don't you come inside?
Feel the ripple
Passing through your mind
What do you see inside?
Feel the ripple
Passing through your mind
I think I'll stay inside

Colourful Minds
06:06

The flashing light
Bright spark of life
Filling my mind with
Colours and blind faith in you
And all that we do
The path seemed so clear
Where do I go from here
I see you making those eyes
Why do you wear a disguise
Is it a part of the game
Why do I get the blame
You could have set me free
instead of mocking me
No need to obscure
What was there before
Eyes don't meet across deep seas
But the flow will finally make you see
Things that you've tried to ignore
Everywhere like an underscore
Nothing as it were before
No colours dancing on the floor
Colosseums stand no more
Nothing left but an empty shore
Sight of the faces when alone
Old questions long overgrown
Throw thought to the wicked wind
To drown out the wretched din
There is a solace to be found
In the things that are unfound
Shadows within the abyss
Do not seem so descript
Shadows grow long
into the distance
Night grows cold
As my mind comes clear
I still feel the colours
hanging over me
But it's no more
than a memory

A Momentary Lapse
05:47
|

You know the faces
The formless shapes
And the blinding forces
On stranger days
So return to face
All the promises made
No there is no flow
Note all the changes
The foreign rays in the
Things that arrange
From through the membrane
But there is no disdain
Nor philanthropic gain
Go there is no flow
Time marches on
To another place past
The last horizons of
Love and hate to
The long days end
And there stands the door
Though there is no flow
Shift
From phase to phase
Out of control
See
Sky black as night
Swallow you whole
Think
Hear the chimes
Wrestle your soul
Starting to unroll
The colours drain but
What will remain in
The horrid frame
Of this moral plane but
The motions changed
There is no sustain
No there is no flow
Crash
Through the door like you saw before
Grapple
With the force of the storms and
Push
Past the boundary out to the form
Passing at dawn
Dance
On the winds of the denizens
Stand
On the precipice of madness
Walk
Along the spiral and down to the shore
Is this like before?
Shift
From phase to phase
Out of control
See
Sky black as night
Swallow you whole
Think
Hear the chimes
Wrestle your soul
Left in the fish bowl

Land of Despair
05:03
|

Picture for my eyes
What are you tryna hide
Past the painted lies
There are no more blue skies
Picture what we'd be sitting in the mango tree
I can't recall where we were before
Paper tears
You see the wear
This is not the usual perception
It's in the air
They don't care
You are looking at the land of despair
These painted pictures decide what I see of the world
Can't even tell what is true or false anymore
There is no reason to find in this absurd universe
Can't even tell if I am real anymore
