Wreckage 06:26
Across the dawn, grey clouds flow The sun stays low, in shame Darkening days, the air so cold So soon has come to decay Minds like the light, grow dark now The sun it hides it gaze The world grows tired and weak now Destroy, discard, kill and hate Ash rain falls upon All the wreckage we make As we stumble on All the wreckage in our way Always been done, take and take Like mould it grows, to taint To live upon, destroying all To kill this host, our fate Time running out, too late now The sand flows to the base The ticking clock runs fast now The withered bough bends and breaks Ash rain falls upon All the wreckage we make As we stumble on All the wreckage in our way The wrecking... Ash rain falls upon All the wreckage we make As we stumble on All the wreckage in our way

The secret stare The curtain drawn A sleeping world The night upon The assignation In hidden world Forgotten promise Feelings gone The hurtful eyes The focus shifting Reveal the lies Foundations drifting Oh the weight Of the day Oh the fires Burn away Broken wings Try to fly Overhead Winter sky The whispered line A burden shown A secret told Deception gone The invocation In ancient tongue Brought to life In sleeping night The hurtful eyes The focus shifting Reveal the lies Foundations drifting Oh the weight Of the day Oh the fires Burn away Broken wings Try to fly Overhead Winter sky The sleeping world

Orion 03:42
I see the lights Rise from horizon Over distant lives To the east, the city glow The line of dawn And paths unknown From the east No wind blows And man-made stars In northward flow To feel alive Rise from contagion As the comet flies Distant fires, so cold The line of dawn And paths unknown From the east No wind blows And man-made stars In northward flow To catch Orion Share his path Shoot from his bow

I know what happens next I saw it in a dream I close my eyes and I can tell I saw you standing there Your head turned away I see my hand reaching out, for you If only for today let's close the world outside Forget the past, forget the fear Embrace me now you say, I look down at my hands If only to avoid your gaze I hear the words you say Now for the second time I make the same choice as before I knew I could not change The wreckage that we made I see my path stretching out, anew If only for today let's close the world outside Forget the past, forget the fear Embrace me now you say, I look down at my hands If only to avoid your gaze I know what happens next I saw it in a dream I close my eyes and I can tell If only for today let's close the world outside Forget the past, forget the fear Embrace me now you say, I look down at my hands If only to avoid your gaze
