Sunrise I
03:04
|
|||
Slowly lift your lashes
To the call of the birds
A first glimpse of light
Daybreak shortly after
Wrap me in the yellow
Orange red and gold
Soon the colors grow
Light will melt the snow
Tops of trees illuminate
Mountains catch the sun
A welcome kiss of warm
A prelude to the storm

One Eye
04:33
|

One eye open
Limited perception
Glazed, foggy vision
Floating through time
Lost with no mission
Thoughts intertwined
With a simple touch
I’ve escaped
The suburbs in location
But not the state of mind
The pain that is neutral
The bark with no bite
Content with the moment
Upset with the lies
Too stationary
Too insane
Are these
Feelings leftover from tumultuous times
Constant recover
I’m catching up while
The path is getting steeper
As you stop to take a breather
You can’t run away
No you can’t run away
Always looked over
Got something I need to prove
Genuine complements can’t fill the void
Wish I could believe them
Wish I could enjoy
My craft again
I guess I’ll wait
For these
Feelings leftover from tumultuous times
Constant recover
I’m catching up while
The path is getting steeper
As you stop to take a breather
You can’t run away
No you can’t run away
[sax solo]
Feelings leftover from tumultuous times
Constant recover
I’m catching up while
The path is getting steeper
As you stop to take a breather
You can’t run away
No you can’t run away
Feelings leftover from tumultuous times
Constant recover
I’m catching up while
The path is getting steeper
As you stop to take a breather
You can’t run away, run away
Run away, run away
Feelings leftover from tumultuous times
Constant recover
I’m catching up while
The path is getting steeper
As you stop to take a breather
You can’t run away
No you can’t run away
From me

Evolution
03:16
|

Clouds start swirling
A hurricane in my mind
Why do I suffer
When everything’s going all right?
I’m still searching for the sunrise
Traveling through the night
Goes forever, so it seems
From time to time
Darkness embrace me
I am so afraid I’ve gone blind
I’m still searching for that sunrise
Traveling through the night
Take a step and you’ve gone farther
Take a breath it wont be easy
Loyalty, friendship, sustaining
I can’t thank you enough
There you have an evolution
Slow and steady
So settled down in this life
Why am I nesting?
I was born with wings to take flight
I’m still searching for the sunrise
Traveling through the night
Take a step and you’ve gone farther
Take a breath it wont be easy
Loyalty, friendship, sustaining
I can’t thank you enough
Yet again, an evolution

Plastic Star
03:50

See
Hear the river pounding
Stay within the rise of the stars
I have never felt this close before
I will capture this night
Forever
Glowing
A plastic star on my ceiling
Lay uncovered on my bunk bed
I will always remember
All those years ago
Never fading
Slowly let go, and the present turns to memories
Gently release me
To think of a future where these are just the good ol’ days
It’s something I can’t explain
Feel the Earth below my body
Moonlight falls upon my skin
Young and speaking of infinity
Comets
We wish
A secret
Together
A decade passes like a fading sunset
Again underneath a blanket of stars
How far have I come to get here?
How far will I go away in the future?
Slowly let go, and
The present turns to memory
Gently release me
To think of a future where these are just the good ol’ days
It’s something I can’t explain
It’s something I can’t explain

Moon
02:14
|

Hush
You’re glistening
A soft, silver glow
I think I had an epiphany
I think I finally know
And I howl it to the moon
Howl it to the moon
Feel the mother breathe
Shallow, steady, true
Stifled by her children
She’ll live, but will you?
And we’re just howling at the moon
Howling at the moon
Howling at the moon
Howling at the moon

Sunrise II
01:31
|

Tops of trees illuminate
Mountains catch the sun
A welcome kiss of warm
A prelude to the storm
Now we’re awakened
And I’ll see you all again
Witnessing a sunrise

Sunset
03:27
|
|||
And now I watch the sunset
I see the clouds in your eyes.
The burning red
A last glimpse of light
Turn to the east
A darkness
Its like the rise of night
Turn to my side
A heartless little smile
A question behind the setting sun
Transgression
I’m told it’s yet to come
But we’ll see
We’ll see
We’ll see
The beetles scurry to their homes
Look up and see a star
Let’s make a wish
We’ve made it this far!
I’ll shut my eyes if you close yours
Now place your hand in mine
Go spread your wings
And fly us to the sky
A question behind the setting sun
Transgression
I’m told it’s yet to come
But we’ll see
We’ll see
We’ll see
A question behind the setting sun
Transgression
I’m told it’s yet to come
But we’ll see
We’ll see
We’ll see
A question behind the setting sun
Transgression
I’m told it’s yet to come
But we’ll see
We’ll see
We’ll see
