The Return Movement

Restless & torn, at the death of your god
Cry no more
You’re fading fast along the heights
Take a moment
And face me inside, my friend
Come see the face of your future
the key to your perfection lies here with me
Disguised behind this simple form
are the eyes that resist temptation & pride at all costs
Enclosed far beneath the frozen fields I've let go
Moved closer to touch the light, spiring to and fro
Watched the patterns of chaos ripple out & return through my troubled roots
I know we're ready to make it through the transition
We've felt the weight of your greed killing our innocence, thought you were empowered with a gift to understand why the wind betrays you
& how the cure is all around you
Go then if you don't feel right
Separate the shores
We're too connected to slip away
Too fragile to lead you on, light your way
Fly into your sculptured sun
& Bring back what once remained
Settle down, grasp and lock out fear
You're moving further through your hostility
Peel your eyes open and recognise
You're scratching through the walls of mortality
We're too connected to slip away
Too fragile to lead you on, light your way
Fly into your sculptured sun,
Bring back what once remained
Surrender as the cyclones rage
You never have to hurt again
We’re dying to feel her hold of care
One gesture, one glance from her will take the weight we have come to bare
(I’m frightened by this pain)
will take the weight we have come to bare
(I’m frightened by this pain)
Up from my centre through the seventh gate
Like my thoughts, I rise
Like my thoughts, I die
Terrified of what may come now
I'm only pure when I burn with clapping at your throne
Feeling aligned with this source through you
No longer, will I yield to the comfort so cold
No longer are we fooled by their reckless desire
Where the hearts turn to stones could you & I with fate conspire?
Higher, higher, higher
(Utterly in the moment, tremendously in the moment) x2
Feel the harmony flow within confusion and disorder

A Place Unbound
09:49

And you asked to trust not the ones who turn from love
Retreat inside with humility & climb to freedom
In front of our eyes they
Burn the clues, forge the sound
The sound of our reason
to dwell in a place unbound
Oh you wonder if we still belong
Now self-delusive freedom in my brain
Invisible leash I consider sane
Clear me out for a new delight
Before the suffering fool unite
I'm the reflection of you disarming them with one cry
“Where have I been?
Where am I going?”
In front of our eyes they
Burn the clues, forge the sound
The sound of our reason
to dwell in a place unbound
As darkness falls each night we purge this love
I’m safe in your arms
Fearless like I began
The time has come to step aside to see what's beneath
The time has come to turn to dust...
Feed the fire that changes all I’m a part
Conquer this space more than I trust
And the best has yet to come
As I raise my eyes towards the sun
I disown all I have come to embrace
Through ages, isolated and fried
In my final hours I’ll fight for resolve
I know that I’m still alive
Can you see me now
Unearth and saved
I swear I’ll brave this light
For a thousand years i’ve been
So afraid to greet you
As you are
