RINGS OF EARTHLY LIGHT
a) EARTHCORE
Trees are drawing shades
On the wall; I keep my shade
Toy with my brain in this place of rest
And I try to find in time my freedom light
Soft flights,
Flickerig waves of colour without light,
Strikes of wind
Divide myself from fantasy.
Earthly spirits out from the mist,
Wandering knights
Mount white wild steeds.
In this land my spirit’s searching for a link
To this Earth’s core.
In this land my spirit’s searching for a link
To this Earth’s core.
Greedy strains upon this world
While I’m floating in the breeze
Picking rings of memory
Scattered by the wings of time to come
In this land my spirit’s searching for a link
To this Earth’s core.
In this land my spirit’s looking for a link
To this Earth’s core.
b) PORTRAIT
In leaves
I made you, maiden
I made you, maiden, mine for life
From leaves you came,
I made you mine
I made you, maiden, mine for life
c) SELL MY FEELINGS
Sell my feelings to the sky to give me life,
Stop for me eternal time
Run with me in glittering woods,
Run with me behind the colours of the sun.
Come through and hear trees breathe
From the leaves you made me,
Now create a story for my time
Sing me in verse like poetry
I’ll reach the lake that’s in my dreams
where you’ll find me
She was flying
In rings of earthly light
Where the forest’s dark
Waterwise
My mind came dark and so my dreams
She was flying
In rings of earthly light
Where the forest’s dark
Waterwise
I knew my sense of life was gone

In the rising mist
04:34
|

Can you see me in this ancient disguise
Proudly winning battles
I can’t really trust myself
On this battleground the rising mist
Is floating on the corpses
and the broken spears
I walk alone upon the grass
Upon this nightmare toned in red
It’s hard to find the way
Lost in this empty scene of fight
Here in the mist my heart can feel
The pain in my soul
Suddenly a light
Shining from beyond
Cleared up myself upon this world
For all the fantasy that dwellson the earth
Carved the stone and turned the mist
Into a winter’s snow

Pushing together
04:46
|
|||
In the sun I miss her
Pushing together
But the sun is in my heart
The brightness that helps me find my way
While the stars begin to shine
The night will fly
And leave me in the hands of destiny
Crashing with violence the fire within
Its searing ground
Lost in this long way down
Of drying dreams
Lost in this long way down
Of drying souls,
I look in this strange dried pool
My life.
And while I set on this trip
I pass her by
And in the sun
My silent cry
Will reach every single shine
To lose this way
And to die
Follow the tricks
Inside your mind
The lady will dream your eyes
And the rain
Will be on your side.
While the stars begin to shine
The night will fly
Giving me back my destiny
And watching myself
Alone in this land
Of newborn life

You'll become rain
02:16
|
|||
Under a sheet of dream light
Your life passes by like raindrops gathering in a reel
You can’t find a place for living
Can’t find a way for mending wounds and fly away
You’ll find another reason
Another cruel dream
And the rain will flow on the wind
The rain will sail on the wind
Sat on the edge of nowhere
You try to remind the face now drowning in your dreams
Lost in the haze of shadows
A rainbow appears above and it’s another day
And looking in the mirror
You’ll become rain
Flowing down in the sea
Flowing down in the sea

The way home
09:08
|
|||
Cold rain and wind rise
Open your mind
You’ re painted now
On this wall made of grey
Our true images away
I wish you could hear my praise;
“Please, stay, my guide
Be on my side
I wish I could leave my time”
“Tell me please why we’re here for”
“ I would lie but we now have to learn
How to fight”.
“Tell me please what’s this knife for”
“Offer me to your gods,
Only so you may return
Back in the place of your own”
Facing the night that followed I came out in the dark
Where every shadow dies
Where every river flows.
I left behind that place that was my glares of mind
The figures on the
wall enlightened by a new dawn
Deep inside

Through the sky
04:04
|
|||
You know I loved you
And you left me through the sky
I know you loved me
You are dancing in the light
In my mind
Now I know you live,
and we can stay together through the light
You know I love you
You’re dancing in the snow of clouds
You know it helps again
To see you through the sky
You know I love you
You are dancing through the night
Tomorrow will I cry?
You know it helps again
To think you live in a world of light
What did I do until I could see you
in my daughters’ eyes
You know I love you
You’re dancing in the snow of clouds
I know it helps again
To see you through the sky
You know I love you
I am listening you through the sky
You know I love you
I am dancing with you in my mind

Watching me watching you watch me.
Out through the window, in an autumn breeze
And when the doors are closed
And when you’re gone
I still feel your perfume on me
Still feel the past days of our life
Having you standing near was all my life
for all those years
Knowing that time would come and wash
this heaven clean
Watching me watching you watch me.
Locked in a battle with our memories
And when the train has left here.
I’m all alone
Then is the time to say we’ve
lost all we had and turn and go
Having you wash me clean displayed to me my darkest dreams

Flying
04:00
|
|||
I’m flying in living spaces
Flight gives shivers of pleasure and pain
I’m reaping childish games by love
And flight rise my whirl in dreaming joy
Fleshy embracing in my body
that’s taking you, is frisking
Sweet embracing for your body
that’s loving you and frisking me
Don’t upset my lifetime for love
In my freedom eyes shine free love
