Excos 03:25
you burn me with only heavens voice you scatter my ashes to the wind embers for a moment I swear you scared me just to scare me the water will rise above you no matter where you are and all i want is your heart so clear and sharp it hurts the color your eyes turn so clear and sharp it hurts the color your eyes turn watch all the mountains burn the color your eyes turn the color your eyes turn there’s nothing as beautiful the color your eyes turn

Past Life 04:08
the sun pours from your eyes we were killers in our past life but it turned out alright winter brings the ice wrap your arms around reaching for the light the angel swims at night rain it down upon my call lets open the night up a room for us never run away birds fly from your eyes and you know it’s a stair case park the car at night we’ll crumble into flames a lover’s eyes never look away I’m bleeding in my heart you tell me that I’m safe when I realize that death is just a stair case I’m bleeding in my heart when nothing is for certain rain it down upon my call lets open the night up a room for us never run away birds fly from your eyes and you know it’s a stair case park the car at night we’ll crumble into flames
3.
I’ve spindled in golden arms such beautiful sorrow the cyclone’s song falls around our homes our hands reach for tomorrow always you always hear the rainfall at night always your eyes always are repeating white light I will give you your space we will speak tomorrow where the rivers rise and the birds crawl there is where I’ll hold you always you’re always in my mirror at night always your eyes always are repeating white light always you always meet me in the next life
4.
you’re such a daunting friend you sing to me under your bed a melody’s rotten all your spirling hair I will meet you on the stairs the angels are speaking so I will lie in your shadow out where the oceans are dark we’ll never hunt alone so long out where our eyes are all older our memories have grown we’ll float around the town chasing all that beauty we’re after a mirror repeating saying you’re alright sing with all the color of night our love’s always changing like angels speaking so I will lie in your shadow out where the oceans are dark we’ll never hunt alone and rise up arise light of our own our armored moon will burn bright and fold us in her arms I let you slip away you let me slip away forever when our eyes are all older our memories stay
5.
Rites 02:57
I’ll crawl out of my skin leave all that I love left a letter on the bed every harm every violent moment all of our faults aside drift through rooms of white light lie on the ground are you sitting down? are you sitting down? our family’s in the background where does your art come from? the Lion and the Lamb our family’s in the background my heart pumps blood a ghost in sun you keep disappearing I keep disappearing are you sitting down?
6.
Wake 03:38
wake under the river where it’s dark open your eyes up safe a glittered raining a mirrored soul opens it’s eyes slow silence over our city where it starts two suns will rise up take my tired secret my weary soul open my eyes slow
7.
Glass Harp 04:34
floating in the early sun your morning gown I’m away while you’re asleep thunder sounds you dream color while behind my eyes shadows bloom your mirrored mouth your graceful hands your eyes open it’s not your fault be still in my arms it’s not your fault the earth has overgrown the sea it will part it’s not your fault art space and gentle waves I drift under at the end of life we’ll sing in color I speak to your turned back am I alone? your mirrored mouth your graceful hands you start to turn it’s not your fault be still in my arms it’s not your fault the earth has overgrown the sea it will part it’s not your fault
8.
Sun 03:54
sunlight rusts us through all for naught I know falls through our hands vanished falls apart ashes once I held a photograph of the sun rained down for us from a high place the moments pass every single one is a head rush now I’m still and plain no more words nothing I fought by an angel’s side getting what we want sunlight on us formed made from the darkest ice so cold sunlight on us
9.
go night walking silver white dance towards me slip your hands through mine grace in movements steps fallen mirror mine your hands on my spine follow up the stairs fall into my arms your voice is light we come from the dark endless color songs collide frozen words your voice saves mine bonfires burning storms are spirling down we’re silent in the calm follow up the stairs fall into my arms your voice is light we come from the dark
10.
Upstairs 03:26
I have awoken with red hands around my face I stumble through the dark they’re prisms in the eyes of angels circling tell me who you are and where will I go now when my world is cold and broken will the sea part when the moons blood falls and opens up the earth will a sun rise don’t let me fall apart I’ll tell my secrets you tell me what they mean you can line them up I’m trapped upstairs below the red beast wandering it’s never giving up and where will I go now when my world is cold and broken will the sea part when the moons blood falls and opens up the earth there’s a sun rise don’t let me fall apart
