Afterlights 06:53
A dim blue light showed him the way Devouring maps and stirring eyes Glowing visions carve the night Glowing visions carve the night A dim blue light showed him the way A future runs within the veils Fascinated by the sight Fascinated by the sight

Ascent 04:42
Hands His hands are eager to feel a grip To hold the pages of ordinary. Despoiled from the logical cloth we own, Morning seems a distant word. Mastering the art of counting steps And watching numbers, watching numbers. A daring soul would mark every view! Those birds are near, birds are near. With a fierce intent he tried to reach Shining tails, shining tails. Hands His hands are eager to feel the stream Flowing between his fingers. Dissolving the ordinary.

A mist spreads over the eyes and in a breath He felt the taste of air, His body sways. Leaves wrapped the trails. In wary steps He moves and tries to grab A branch of the past. Skies let out words of exile, behind torn veils. The feast! The lazy ages! Divine days! The dance of invisible chaotic gears. In silence they finish worlds, Divine works.

Slow Trials 06:44
Emerging from the caves, Years have passed, will he last? When the erosion of the ages comes with grains of doubt. Flogged and restrained, The stones had wrath, eyes will cast Images and ideals, images and ideals. "Once I felt a presence, near my neck". Whispers have Been left during these days, restoring his solemn voice. Calm chest, slow trials. Calm chest, slow trials. Absorving all their faces, Reading eyes, taking time And seeking in the shades, traces of ancient lust. Remembering how the shores were part of a distant past, But then he saw those feline eyes, he saw those feline eyes.

Hightower 02:31
"I've tried to escape From the ropes that were carried by birds. They told me when i dived in a celestial stream, I've dried an unique spring. I kept notes, They delivered revelations in a formal tone. I'm the object of a curious empire, I will seek their lair."

SSSUUUNNN 07:50
"They want to taste the ink that I've laid on pages beyond their grasp." His revealing plans to hidden flames, Recalling those words, once said. Staring into the sun, Chasing divine laughter. "Will this face last?" Staring into the sun, Legs are almost gone. "Will this face fade?"
