lyrics

spray leaves the wave tops rising up
in the twilight of the setting sun
the only sound is music of the moon and sea’s rhythm
being continually begun
movement that seduces and reveals
mechanics are all just chaotic schemes
who’s laws rewrite time after time
evolving to intentionally mislead

if you are stumbling upon original mystery
your heart is still young and strong
when tall cliffs are crumbling or gone
and your sigils and flags
fly tattered and torn
then we’re becoming one

the light that is coming in the morning
is the same light that had lessened the dark
where shadows cast don’t care who calls the dance
nor how bright nor righteous is the spark
whilst some looking inward
searching outwardly to reach freedom
from the oracles who claim
accidental juxtaposing theories can explain
an imperfect geocentric twist of fate

if you are stumbling upon original mystery
your heart is still young and strong
when tall cliffs are crumbling or gone
and your sigils and flags
fly tattered and torn
then we’re becoming one
we are becoming one

you’re falling past your stars coruscating flight
the crucible you came from
soaring through the depths of farthest night
into the confluence beyond right or wrong
becoming one
becoming one

if you are stumbling upon original mystery
your heart is still young and strong
when tall cliffs are crumbling or gone
and your sigils and flags
fly tattered and torn
then we’re becoming one
we are becoming one
