The Foreigner
06:29

Go now they've breached somehow
There is no time for goodbyes
Your the last and only one that matters
Find a ship and leave before light
Stick to the clouds you will survive
To find a new star and begin to build again
But too low we built
Underneath the stars
We tempered and we forged
But forgot the skies
And then they arrived
And though we brought the fight
We held onto our lives
Until the morning
Fly fast into the dark
The distant stars your only guide
Your destination is unknown
You'll decide
I know that you'll live on
When all our days have come and gone
All the signs that spelled our doom
As we tried to break through
I will survive and make sure that they pay
I'll mark this spot to remember where you lay
My name is gone and nothing's understood
The stars shine bright like we knew they would
I left my home in a blaze of foreign flame
To have a stake in a world that has no name
I'll lead you here when we reach the fabled day
I will return

Forgotten Skies
04:33
|

The day it went silent demands remembering
The way the watcher came and what he seemed to bring
Not the cruelty of the criminal nor a lack of a miracle
The left us all there wondering
What did the watcher bring us?
It's a lie
Its a trap its a lie its a life its a time its a place
Its the reason why we cry
Its the fire its the dark its a heart its a spark
Its no less its no more than we deserve

Far Away From You and I
03:58
|
|||
By the cold hand of the stars
We by chance are where we are
Staring up into the sky
Waiting for no reply
Nobody is sure today
Just how the darkness slipped away
I see it shining in your eyes
Its far away from you
Far away from you and I
I asked you not to go
Its easy when you're all alone
A million miles from home
Around another sun
There are yet things left to know
If you want we can go
Vanish from the day's sweet light
And get lost in the night
Oh my love look how we are
A part of every single star
I see it shining in your eyes
Far away from you
Far away from you and I

Warning
I'll take warning
Men of deeds
I'll take heed
You
Should start running
He is coming
The nameless one
Shadows falling
Voices calling
Shadows fall
We're headed home
Feeding
All consuming
Leaving nothing
But the bones
Black hand
Of the evening
Nowhere left
For you to run

Out of the Sky
05:25
|
|||
High as the trees
(Time has us now)
Its been a while
(Since I've been back down)
Bare as a lawn
On watch for the bees
Sunset sky
(Breaks open to burn)
Water on fire
(Our hearts start to churn)
Circle of moons
All meant to disguise
We drift away
We heed the call
Rise on the ships
Let the ashes fall away
When we begin
To love distant stars
We see the earth
We forget its ours
We drift away
We heed the call
Fall from the sky
(Down to the barren ground)
Judge me not
(For I won't make a sound)
What you see
(Is just a look in your eyes)
Drift away
(From uncertain times)
Out of the sky we fall
Out of the sky
Am I too late?
I missed it all
We took a chance but now its gone
You sent me off without a guide
No way back a one way ride
And now i'm here without a clue
I did what you asked its all been for you
Did you mean to be so lost
To make it work no matter the cost
Or was this all just part of the plan
To make me more into some kind of man
But either way its time I fly
There's nothing left
Except goodbye

Outreach

I followed you down the path
By moon and broken branch
(To be by your side)
I followed you to the sea
And found you staring
At an empty beach
Hello from me right now
I just wanted to reach out
Across the hemisphere
You've never felt so near
I know that you've made choices
I know that you hear voices
I know some things take time
But I've been waiting for goodbye
We watched the long sun rise
Your hand felt so warm in mine
(What did it feel like)
The dawn turned into day
We left our secrets floating on the waves
Hello from me right now
I just wanted to reach out
Through all the winding years
I've always been right here
The sum of all those choices
The one who's hearing voices
I know some things take time
But I've been waiting for goodbye
All the moments that you took
Wouldn't make for half a book
But I think of you sometimes
When the sun is in my eyes

Broken Walls
04:13
|
|||
Hey you it's all done now
These broken walls are all to show you
Where it ends
Just pieces on the ground now
A thousand relics of a life, spent
When did we bend?
Like creatures feeding knowing they may never leave
Like voices screaming saying lies I won't believe
And through the mirror is the other side of me
But I can't believe it all the time
Hey you I'll hold on somehow
Should the impossible come to pass
You did your best
Don't tell me the moon is shining
You shed a glimpse of light on broken glass
I'll do the rest

The Dream Returns
03:47
|
|||
Holding on to everything that used to be
Stuck inside a half remembered dream
Not so long that we can't forget the plans we made
Before I wake and they all fade away
To grey
I can close my eyes
And see it all so clear
Like a castle made of sand
And scattered by the air
Can't pretend that anything will be the same
You moved on and I took all the blame
No more friends at gatherings we planned and schemed
They've all left, or were they all a dream
Of steam

City As Memory
05:15
|
|||
People rising
The dust of a nation
Building up towers under the sun
A city was lifted
Out of the mountain
Blessed green bowers for chosen ones
Once we were raiders
No thought of surrender
Twilight descending on those we oppose
Now we're the fallen
Lost to the ages
City as memory embedded in stone
These were the days
That no one remembers
Using their power
Splitting the one
Under a black sky
We look to the heavens
Where is our savior
Will he come home?
A legend forgotten
Lost in the process
Was he a memory? Or a story we told?
All the ways
You tried to save
There's nothing left
But empty graves
You did your best
But died with the rest
There's nothing left
But an empty raging heart
Once we were raiders
No thought of surrender
Building up towers to claim our home
Now we're the fallen
Lost to the ages
City as memory
Embedded in stone
