Of the Night

If I could stop making all my decisions in my sleep, and calling after you
There's not a silent star above me that could take a pill and weep,
For they will stay awake and be untrue.
And forever after, avert disaster before I close the door,
I wish I knew the answer before I pass up a way to something more.
You say there's no answers in the dark, but I find the way to who I was
Counting every second of the night, until I take my breath in the sunlight...
And when the time is pouring in it fills the spaces in between
And touches every corner.
But the beauty of a dream is that it moves so easily
Without an age or order.
And it takes me back to a moment, down where time never meant much to me.
So if you let me sleep, I can return, retreat to that sea.
You say there's no answers in the dark, but I find the way to who I was
Counting every second of the night, Until I take my breath in the sunlight.

It Could Be
03:19

You tell yourself to implement some order,
And hide your fear of coming in too strong.
To recognise the happiness she spoke of,
You hardly seemed to know what was wrong.
Another day, another destination.
Waiting for an anchor in the sea.
It could be I'm another soul to wake up and see,
That you're already here with me.
Your open eyes remind me of the forest,
Whose wind could always knock me down with ease.
A phantom in the darkness that could hold me by the heart,
And drag my breath away upon the breeze.
There's not a star below me that could hold me down
A never-ending sorry fantasy.
It could be we're another soul to wake up and see,
That I'm already here with you, and forever will be...

Ode to an Empress
03:03

Ready to know what happiness is like for lovers.
Moments ago, it was inscribed, described by all as some cloud of dreams.
On a rowboat in the darkness, with a sweet smoke in your eyes,
Like a freefall with no harness falling on into the night
For all of time.
She hides my sorrows in her perfume, in her fortune.
That she made by selling her soul for you, but I don't assume,
That her love is all for me.
But we are one in my eyes, though she is far away, I beg her to stay.
A beauty untold, and a mystery for all who try to know.
She's unarming and a powerful beam of light,
On the surface, just another girl of fight or flight,
And on she will go.
She hides my sorrows in her perfume, in her fortune.
That she made by selling her soul for you, but I don't assume
That her love is all for me.

Qumari
01:10
|

Over again I remember there's no second chances,
Finally I'm here alone, and desperately holding on.
To fighting a battle of towels, a fortress of bedsheets,
Stands between me and the moment we spoke of your life
Before you were gone.
So if you're lost in the valleys of life, I'll never forget
'cause you're never lost in my head...

The Cycle
04:27

Something tells me I'll regret this love,
It's a heartache that you couldn't make up.
If it hangs over me for half as long, I'm giving up.
I've waited long enough to feel at home,
But now this pressure just won't leave me alone,
And I'm bowing down to it for as long as I'll hold.
I don't wanna be alone without this feeling,
I gotta get out.
Stay forever young and help me to see,
Eternity's not long enough for you and me.
You can take my lungs if they help you to breathe.
You can take all of me.
Count the minutes into hours, and the hours into moments,
So you'll never forget.
I'll board the boat to lead me back there, to where you rest.
And i'll find no one else there.
Stay forever young and help me to see,
Eternity's not long enough for you and me.
You can take my lungs if they help you to breathe,
You can take all of me.
Neverending downward spiral, waiting out for your arrival,
And we can begin the Cycle over again...
