Ascension (Cascading Lights)
Listen to the words of the prophet
Find deliverance in his hands
He will take you in his arms again

On your knees hear the voice of the mouth piece
Leave the world you conceived
Emanations locked within your dreams

In this cascading light
I will give you faith to remember
In this cascading light
Revealed before your eyes
In this cascading light
Truth is wrought by the burning ember
In this cascading light
You will remain forever

Kneel before this throne of atonement
Your salvation catalyzed
Guided by the purity within

Witness now the fate of the chosen
In this wave sanctified
Consecrated by the rays within
Back to top

The Prodigal Son
On the veil of the horizon
In the middle of July
Endless seas of heaven
In a world of droning waves
Can't we celebrate?

Fly along the waves to where your body lies
And in the sun it waits alone
Feel I lost your light inside a vertigo
Return to me

Oh mother, I can see, I can see it in your eyes so deep
I'm spinning in your arms and I am weak

So you live in a lie of animation
With a veil around your eyes
Feeding your soul
And the wake of ocean waves
Beating in your side
Belongs to me

Can you hear me calling
Can you see me falling
Down again

Mother, I have said and I see it in your eyes so deep
I'm spinning in your arms and I am weak
Back to top

Heretic
Viruses, you say, will start again
There's no redemption here, it never ends

There's no lovers left 
That can save the world you destroyed long ago
I feel no pain as my head explodes
I won't let it go

Heretic
I'll feel your heart stop
I'll be your angel of death that can guide you to hell
Heretic
I won't back down
I won't forget
The promise you made

There's no second place, rest assured
Leave without a trace; nothing's pure

There's no shooting star
You can wish on now that your life's astray
I feel a sense of redemption
And I won't let it go
Back to top

Whispering Trees
Whispering trees
I still recall the words you said last night
Whispering trees
Shed the blood before the morning light

I could be guided by heaven (x2)
I must be guided by heaven (x2)

Reaching up for the sun, they say 
I shed my faith for a world full of solid dreams
Take your judgments and cast them aside
I chose my fate in a world full of prophecy

Whispering trees
Echoes linger in the falling rain
Whispering trees
So much lost and yet so much to gain

Reaching up to the sun, they say
I shed my faith for a world full of solid dreams
Take your judgments and cast them aside
I chose my fate and now this is my destiny
Back to top

Exile
Freedom is much deeper than the sea
Pride, stricken from the heart of me

Let's fall beneath the wheels of history today
Let's fall from heaven, take its offspring as our prey

As my wings crash through the ocean
I was love before I lost my honour
Remember me in glory
Not on fire eternally

So I shut my eyes and turn away
Hide away, away from the morning sun
Never knowing what tomorrow may bring

Strength caused the vanity in me
Greed cost our ranks my treachery
Exiled, my belief lay crushed for all time
Brothers who agreed with me fell not far behind
Back to top

Poetry of Angels
(The voice of many waters wakes the seraphim
And my eyes begin their weeping
As they break another seal again)

And the dream's in motion
Can you feel it in your eyes
Like a wicked potion
Changing lights that hypnotize

Poetry of angels
Vicious lights upon the floor
Sweet poetry of angels
I know I've seen your face before

And the stifling ocean
Changing ageless with a smile
And the fates implore you
And entrap you all the while

Rays of light shift around your head
Shifting memories of a life that's been forgotten
Back to top

Thief of Always
If I confront, evaluate
I know it will retaliate
It will hide until I sleep
And become the thief of always

Always, always...

A rustle from underneath the bed
I dare not look, I'll be misled
And carried into summerland
By the thief of always

Silent chasing me
A hope I can't discern
Invades my privacy
A trust it never earned

The hands will turn and you'll be gone
Hibernating in the walls
To come again when twilight calls
And become the thief of always
Back to top

King of Lies
I can't forget the words
I still recall the lamplight moon
Purgatory shore
Taken from my home

King of lies
I've heard them all, and that's the truth
And I retaliate
King of lies
I'm the slow-witted youth that knows that it's too late
King of lies

I still remember glares
Gleaming off the foreign shore
Throw them in the cage
Give them a new hope
There is still a chill
Something in the night that moves
Know me by my name
My soul is disease
