Raven's Call
06:14
|
|||
|
We find ourselves at the height of the storm
With the past raging higher
We hold ourselves
With space in these words
We'll dance the devil away
We will dream of worlds we've never seen
Come to the crossroads of the fire
We will wake to the sound of the revolution
The time is now in the Raven's Call
The Raven's Call
There's a sound cutting through the clouds
To take us to that day
There's a truth
Resonating souls
To take us to our home
We will dream of worlds we've never seen
Come to the crossroads of the fire
We will wake to the sound of the revolution
The time is now in the Raven's Call
The Raven's Call
And the Raven flies
Through forgotten skies
Knowing us from the outlet of our day
And the Raven calls
Raven calls
Through deaths deep walls
Death's deep walls
And through the sound
we know we'll soar
We will dream of worlds we've never seen
Come to the crossroads of the fire
We will wake to the sound of the revolution
The time is now in the Raven's Call
The Raven's Call

End of the Road
05:01
|

Is this the end of the road?
Is this the end of the road?
Stoney ground beneath me, trembles with every step
Watch where you put your feet now don't fall victim of the
Cracks go down for ever, the poison thats within
feeds off lies, twisted gossip spies,
Thats where it all begins
It begins
This once idyllic landscape, carved from years of toil
Helped grow a generation, that bloomed from toxic soil
where things were hidden, hidden in plain sight
Flowers bloomed, you'd assume everything's alright
It's not alright
Will there ever be light at the end of the road in our lives
There's a glimmer of hope in our eyes
But I don't wanna hope too much.
Thoughts go on forever, what-ifs and whys and where
are those innocent memories that suddenly disappeared
from deep within me, foundations they were shook
Lets build them back stronger
A new page turned in an old book
In an old book
Will there ever be light at the end of the road in our lives
There's a glimmer of hope in our eyes
But I don't wanna hope too much.
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, is this the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?
Is this the end, the end of the road?

Divine Poetry
04:36
|
|||
|
Divine poetry stretches from our skies
Divine Symmetry reflected when we find
Illusions collapse, imperfect in our time
We all must be forgiven for our accidental crimes
Does really matter at all, what took us to this place?
Aren't we all just angels, stolen from our grace?
This could be the one that opens the door
Could free our landscapes forevermore, forevermore, forevermore
I know what you've been through is a destroyer of worlds
I know what you're craving when the truth is unfurled
This could be
the one that opens that door
Could free our landscapes forevermore, forevermore, forevermore
And I hope you'll understand this is where we should be
Beyond the words there's a sanctuary that frees us from our sleep
This could be the one that opens the
door
Could free our landscapes forevermore, forevermore, forevermore

Dragons
03:05

You and I will build a home with
Bricks and blood, wood and stone
A workplace for building and
Gates against the dangers of the night
You and I will build a wall with
Strength to hold till heavens fall
To carve out a haven and
Fill it with light
You and I
Will fight against dragons
We'll face down the cannon and
Push back the dark
You and I
Will raise this flame higher
A whole world on fire
Will spring from this spark
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I
You will build a table strong to
Carve our names and dreams upon
And paint me a picture of
Future songs you know our life will hold
I will sail the roughest sea to
Bring a treasure home with me
And clothe you in tapestries
Black, red and gold
You and I
Will fight against dragons
We'll face down the cannon and
Push back the dark
You and I
Will raise this flame higher
A whole world on fire
Will spring from this spark
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I will climb the mountains high
To raise a flag all tyrants to defy
You'll know my word was true
And every tongue will sing of
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I

Sinking Sand
04:33
|
|||
|
The hour is darkest before the dawn
The world is the oldest when the black eyed dog it calls around
So take my hand through the sinking sand
And pull us out when our philosophy hits the ground
Sinking Sand
Take my hand through the sinking sand
There some day we'll find a way to the other world
How does it feel like to be dead inside?
How does it feel to have your world denied?
So all that you are, give it away
Because you're nothing like that anyway
Ego and Self falling away
Because it's the dawn again today
Sinking Sand
Take my hand through the sinking sand
There some day we'll find a way to the other world
Sinking Sand
Take my hand through the sinking sand
There some day we'll find a way to the other world
Sinking Sand
Take my hand through the sinking sand
There some day we'll find a way to the other world

Space
04:06

She walks alone, keys in hand.
- Crosses the road on a route well planned
Plenty of street lights, shops to go into,
- All the things that keep her safe, that all women do
It's an unwritten rule passed down for generations
- Like a secret code written deep in her foundations
Call me when you get home safe, okay yeah? It's
Exhausting, she hides behind her hair
Go on, be strong, take up space
It's up to us to dismantle the barriers we face
Relay baton is passed on and on
Let's hope it gets lighter but we'll carry on being
Strong
Respect can go a long, long way. Be an
Ally, a friend and together we can slay. Don't
Give up, we can one day say goodbye to this
Evil unfair world.
Go on, be strong, take up space
It's up to us to dismantle the barriers we face
Relay baton is passed on and on
Lets' hope it gets lighter but we'll carry on being
Strong
Go on, be strong, take up space
It's up to us to dismantle the barriers we face
Relay baton is passed on and on
Let's hope it gets lighter but we'll carry on being
Strong

If I Had the Chance
04:13
|
|||
|
A man wandered off to war
with an idea in his head
And the reasons for it called from what someone else had said
Imaginary foes keep being created
It'll always fall apart when you see your face in theirs
If I had the chance to make everything right
I'd take down the mind-forged prisons of those choosing to fight
And the changes in the distance keep calling ahead
Through striving and the laughing and the incandescent fights
So, don't open up the door to the demons of self-doubt
When you know inside us all of light that never goes out
If I had the chance to make everything right
I'd take down the mind-forged prisons of those choosing to fight
And the billions of souls who've been here before
They just need us all to free our days
We'll break down these doors
Break down these walls
Of the prisons we've made
Of the shackles we've made
There's a heaven
From the darkness to the light
And the castles on the sand are falling down

Look on These Works
06:03
|
|||
|
You say your opinion's a matter of fact
Keep burning your bridges
It's never as simple as that
Keep telling yourself you know what this is
When the storm tore down your house for all the world to see
Look on these works, you mighty and tremble
The tides will turn, ages turning around
Look on these works, you mighty and tremble
The change is dust, echoing words across this sound
It's all for nothing in the end
It all keeps turning in the end
It's all for nothing in the end
It all keeps turning in the end
To begin again
So, when love and compassion is replaced by honesty
Fear and ignorance will take the stand
When the smoke has cleared, we'll see with clarity
What's behind the curtain is sinking sand
Look on these works, you mighty and tremble
The tides will turn, ages turning around
Look on these works, you mighty and tremble
The change is dust, echoing words across this sound
It's all for nothing in the end
It all keeps turning in the end
It's all for nothing in the end
It all keeps turning in the end
To begin again
It's all for nothing in the end
It all keeps turning in the end
It's all for nothing in the end
It all keeps turning in the end
To begin again

A Million Light Years
04:47
|

|
A million light years away
There's an ocean we can play
There's a song in this verse the first time we rehearsed
So, I must tell you today
A million lifetimes away
There's a beacon on the bay
There's people crying, thinking no-one can hear
So, we must sing this today
And I just wanted to stay
Just where we lay
Eternal moments, touching the void
So, you must hear this today
And we'll be resting these weary bones
A simple million shards of light
Emanating from our universal song
Through all the fears to the sun
Through all the fears to the sun
Through all the fears to the sun
Through all the fears to the sun
The unconditional shines
The unconditional shines
The unconditional shines
The unconditional shines
The unconditional shines
The unconditional shines
The unconditional shines
