Shadow's Wings

Lyrics: Mist
Music: Mist, Rhymer
Vocals: Mist

stars fall and we catch them
like snowflakes of light
dancing
glitter silver moon
time stands frozen
satellites spin me dizzy
I fall
into your arms
I fall
my heaven arms
I fall
dust pulsates...surrounds
angels dreaming for you
are my sugar starshine dream
with me tonight
mine
forever
the light is calling you
swirling heat dream
tonight in heaven
mine
forever mine
time
the sun turns blue


Pale Shadows
Lyrics: Shade, Mist
Music: Shade, Rhymer
Vocals: Mist

How carelessly the bound daylight caresses
Oblivious to wandering eyes extinguished
Free me reckless with the night
Elusive scenes enkindled burst to fire
Where splendor casts umbrageous twin
And love sparks radiance
To guide the heart from within
All in search for you

Eve of brilliance
Till the morning proves indifference
For the sparks die
Leaving shadows in my vision

How dutifully the dull sunlight chastises
Adopted wings that dare arise with promise Incandescent I represent
Pandora's uninformed enlightenment
And fears that creep about my flame
Evanesce until the dawn calls them home again
Bearing thoughts of you

Eve of brilliance
Till the morning proves indifference
For the sparks die
Leaving shadows in my vision

And I'm helpless to see
Unbecoming of me
Blindly mythicizing

Etiolation emphasized by merrythoughts
Once broken by moonlight
Oh brighter to have never loved
Than gather ghosts of the blinding
Relentless sun idealized in you

Eve of brilliance
Till the morning proves indifference
For the sparks die
Leaving shadows in my vision

And I can't bear to see
Unbecoming of me
Love is not dead
Love is not dead
Love is not dead


Carnival of Lies
Music: Rhymer

Crossing
Lyrics: Mist
Music: Rhymer, Ailey
Vocals: Mist, Ailey

It's time to let go
Time to spend some time alone
Farbeit to explain what has been done
and what is illusion

We have outlived ourselves
By many a ruined year
The future ripped from a tattered page

Like the violence in dream-dead eyes
The reflection of a thousand tangled view -
Cause and Effect
Like the diamond that cuts the light
The radiation from a single mind...

We could outlive ourselves
By many a ruined year
Acting out a tedious wish long fulfilled
(over and over again)

It's time to let go
Time to spend some time alone
Reconsider what could be done
Unbind the imagination

We're ready for a new Age of Innocence
(we have outlived ourselves by many a ruined year)


Apocalypse
Lyrics: Eire
Music: Eire, Rhymer
Vocals: Mist, Ailey, Eire
Air-built madness: unfamiliar charm  
Hides in the softest eyes  
And ponderous smiles manifest denial  
But heavy heartless  
Conscious of our load  
Hurled by dreams into a separate world  
We dig the thoughtless earth  
With fingers lighter than the breath  
Of lifeless minds awaiting death  
On this mercyground  

What may transpire in this stagnant posture  
Tradition multiplies  
Where repetition reigns and the air smells of age  
And prayers of sightless  
Blind us to the earth  
Disenchantment sings in voices fortified  
Our sleep is justified  

Prone and weary from descent  
Our eyes reflect empyrean  
On this mercyground  
Safe inured we lay to rest  
Pinioned by our helplessness  
On this mercyground  

Empty smiles drag us down  
Until we softly kiss the ground  
And all movement is lost  
Silently we all sink down  
Embraced within this mercyground  
And all movement is lost
