Lyrics from the forthcoming full-length LP/CD

OF CORRIDORS AND TIME
Over fields and under stars, the night it cries And through the pines, the light it strikes like spears and flys Forever running away... And sinking in the black soil of death, held in place by babys arms and breath Another child says, worms in the clay, and dark birds which sleep by day... In this ever expanding garden where time flows with sinking men into the unknown First the steel world crumbles, and then the past, and at last... Straight through the night, straight through the heart.

THE EYES OF THE WORLD
The empty room in my eye, I stand alone upon this hill An old man rushes here and there, over ruins, once tall, once noble, once golden Far away I hear the singing of some seraphim, or the rustling of some leaves The forest weeps, the rivers weep I drive my hand into the sun.

DOWN THE LADDER OF LIGHTS, TOWARDS THE GATE OF ERIM
Down the ladder, the seas breeze nightingale The smell of rain and earth... The water breathes, and peers with two eyes like galaxies My arms reach the dull side of night, and twine the thin line... Things roll on night through night Of nature and eyes Through oceans of dust... Her face etched on the world, her face is on the walls of the world, infinitys world. Her face drips down the walls of the world, and time slows, to allow her freedom, its all here.

THE LAST HOUSE
Im traveling through the snow, I find my home Blue silk walls alone, red moon alone Legerdemain, now they appear madcap, kibitzer Smoke rise, I find, its all right here... There is a road behind the door And there is house beyond the road A horizontal prison, so many stairs, a ghost for each room Sleight of hand, and barely there Red voices on an ancient breeze, fading numbers on crooked walls Im traveling through the snow, blue silk walls alone.

SONG FOR KALYX
And with a divine spark, and piercing gossamer charms, Flowers on the road The spinning moth collides, invisible golden eyes The mineral of the eyes Solemn by design and illuminated and scattered And floating with a breath and a spark Followers walk the line and find no time In the distance, the hills of oil and bronze. Their forests shiver wild, then turn and shine. The whisper sinks to an end, gone like the wind And with palms of silver, upon the golden world The scattered ashes fill the air, all sparkle and glass This was once a city, now dead like moons of sand.

MASTERS WITHIN SPACES
And I recall your face, I see you now in the lake And the fields, and the air In the singing of the birds In the milk white sand the secrets are real Like silver streams off four-winged things The broken circle and the broken sky, slide together with falling stars And your lifes lost like light in the mist of your world Youre a tree that blocks out the sun of your world And the broken sky it cries Yet your tears do not end with the night of wind And the shadows through trees are like nights sails The water and thunder of the world.

LADDER OF LIGHTS
Down the ladder, the seas breeze nightingale The smell of rain and earth The water breathes and peers, with two eyes like galaxies My arms reach the dull side of night and twine the thin line The earth leaves in its wake The broken circle and the broken sky, slide with falling stars Beneath the waves The churning of the void, and its weighted grip Holds the silence.

SERPENT AND RING
Black forest rain stretched out before you And all that you feel, laid at your feet You feel you have been paid or been framed The heavens as high as you dream The chains round my arms cut deeper Since the beginnings of my sleep White touch, what circles stars. What circles emptiness. When the day should turn the serpent and ring I will be with you again Illquarian hill blocks cities of worms And what circles stars but serpent and ring.

WHITE FOUNTAIN
every second another birth in the heavens. shine white in the night... paradise in the forest of stars.

ILLUMINATION OF THE SYLPH
hey sister with your hands upon the moon theres a secret deep in our world the light upon your face strikes nothing beginning of the end the light upon your face strikes nothing no time hey sister why track that pale horse? and ride the night with bees? on the backs of wolves running backwards around the hands of time grasping manes of gold in the corners of the dark girls of mud and straw as the rain comes down so we stopped just short of the waterwheel and you spoke in the voice of a child... when i was young you were in a dream, i was following grace, you were tracing the lines now we can see again, to the ends of the earth i remember, i was watching you through curtains of fire you were tracing the lines now through my opal eyes, im tracing the lines. the light upon your face strikes nothing no time the light upon your face strikes nothing beginning of the end.

MY PASSING THROUGH THE GOLDEN APEX
have you forgotten where you are? in the midst of the past of your heart earth-bells ring and sing of your light of the price paid... chant-caught and green. now im walking through walls of water now my life, a trail of loss we are watching ourselves on a string of air a possible future, with twilight skies and colored nights on a string of air but our wings grow tired.

FATHER TIME
youll run through the white walls and the dead walls to get to me in black and white and in the middle of our last breath slowly slipping through the northern trees to get to me in the house on the hill our last stop, on the edge of the world where we fade in our moment together.

THE UNBROKEN CIRCLE
two lost paths in the woods now the wind blows backwards through your memory and when the sky reveals its golden spears upon your night, you feel the heat of my wings and you my little one, dangerous and sparkling with eyes darting back and forth across my fields of grey in this forest in this web i always wanted your eyes and the music that runs through your veins now the unbroken circle moves to block my time and i find myself in your house, underground and full of night a soft singing rising from the earth as mist coils round my legs now you blow out the candle.
