Malvina 04:32
The colour red sends abroad Drawing closer still Snow capped peaks it could have been But i won't find you there A half closed door might shelter It won't change the way I feel For the breeze may caress your beauty through An open door to heal Walking the same circles Just travelling different ways It feels like a maze now Lost nights and the days If they intertwine and meet again my love Will you call me home There will always be with you A half closed door might shelter It won't change the way I feel For the breeze may caress your beauty through An open door to A half closed door might shelter It won't change the way I Love You

Grating Will 04:53
Blessed are those with access to the depth, this grating will Scrape against your conscience as it surfaces for air Strikes the chord of reason like third party self defense Maneuvered back to hibernation, slumber so it seems Entombed, I bath in the carved out hollow The mist, with clouds that hover far to low In layers of corrupted vision Seeing clearly holds no reason Run against the grain of which your world will surely grate Gathering in piles collecting dust of all that falls From higher places divine tears to dissipate Decay forgone with rust repression A welcome cleansing storm As I, make my way back to where I've come from To find that my home has gone To see now who i've become Something that's always been there You, walk slowly and betrayed alone This ghost that follows all along It haunts me in my every move Reminding me of what's been broken To feel the falling rain Bringing back fresh life again Forgiveness is in need So you can hear the silence now To hear the calling faint Summoning the change The wind that stirs the trees Awakens depth embracing me To feel the falling rain Bringing back fresh life again Forgiveness is in need To release the silence

Ode 03:37
Designed despite the odds against its height We've come, thus far with those who walk among us Bearing light, on all that's been left aside is clay We'll play, like the child mind expanding Hindsight's defied, outspoken heart are bleeding to ask why Received, by open ears lending space to hear Their song, of empathy to bring us further When we die alone, that we'll sing together All of a sudden we're suddenly one All of a sudden it's suddenly none All's dissolving in flames with the sun All are humble when the race can't be run An ode to a dying world When die is the encompassing verb We can fall blindly into the abyss Or drink from the poets mead An ode to a dying world, all of a sudden Our demise to ignite us we turn to The will to propel our life through the abyss As fragments of truth may we burn All of a sudden we're suddenly one All of a sudden it's suddenly none All's dissolving in flames with the sun All are humble when the race can't be run An ode to a dying world When love is the encompassing verb We will propel our life through the abyss With tears of our reigning moon Designed despite the odds against our life

Gravitation 02:19

Received, a gift to great to bear Caught in your light The mask I wear Will slide, from my face this night As the sound of fair song Like soft leaves falling Gently casting spell Transparently calling Although in other tongue It needn't be spoken For the words that lightly dwell Fall heavy on those, who carry their burden far Awaits dawn to tell You gave the sun and the rain to Spring Frost set by Winter is thawing within to the bitter cold months clinging Thought deceived so bound with fear Finding the truth to late in dark hour will break in me what had just come to Sewn by you Grown, and ripped in two Looked the eyes of burning green Straight through me to fields unseen Taking hold to overwhelm Futile is the guard that's barring my heart from ascending through the woodland realm Awoke to find myself from sleep Deprived of you in loss I'll keep Gripping hands to rope they burn The pull from Earth shall take its turn Make for the hills Soon Autumn will rain with Leaves against my will Time has been my bane How does it heal As it took you further away Destined for doom how the end was foreseen Out times come to pass and all that has been Lies forever In the leaves of ever green
9.
Reoccurring themes have dragged me to The edge of meaning Don't trip, it's a long way down from here While calm it seeps right through Like I've been screaming stoically With subversive good taste To lift the chain that anchors me And strike down those who dared Dead But I've been moral thinking violently Have I shown my gratitude If not I thank you For providing a vessel To lift the chain that anchors me To the Lake of Drowning Kings I'll smash my bonds and wrap what's left of them To watch it go down Now that I think about it Please take this whole riding crown down with you Red faces fading blue I'm sure I'm not the only one, to feel this way But some won't have their, so I will have my Say
10.
Into the night I walk outside in the city lights They sharpen my eyes Relate each sight to the shadow Of an empirical mind It's there I'll find my Way into the night Take me into the night Like a cat in space Aware of all sounds that resonate With my state of being From here i'll take, your cold fair hand My new found friend, to form again We'll float above moonlit rooftops From window sills, escapes the dreamer For there lies sleeping beauty Soft corruption breathing When freedom's seething Its way into the night I'll take you into the night Take me into the night Awake unto the night
11.
Time is cut into fine lines Drifting with the wind in flight Of which judgment can be made Light the candle melt in flames Burning with the end in sight Elusive form in takes Fill the void wet given need Evaporate now turn to steam Rising leaves behind Breath in and taste the cold that flowing to your head Imperial red curtains over eyes will fall Now lost it all Save the will to be And you Specks of dust reflect the sun A shadows born the ink will run And slowly wash away False colours deepened stain Drawing poison sleep again In dreams of clarity Breath in and feel the air that's rushing to your head Impurities are filtered and now your eyes bare all Found myself by a lake far to the North When the sun was falling down Took my place at its edge upon a stone Found myself by a lake far to the North When the sun was falling down Took my place at its edge upon a stone Primordial carving Found myself by a lake far to the North When the sun was falling down Took my place at its edge upon a stone An ancient carving By myself in the stillness of the North And the world is falling down From the sun in the woods beside a lake I find Ylistenjärvi
