Destiny's Price
Lyrics: Eire
Music: Eire, Rhymer
Vocals: Ailey

So you've returned to lengthen my shadow
To once again shatter my windows
What a child will feel
When the home is hell
Hands loom and fall
Waiting for the pen to move

With arms too wide to hold just one
Too small to heal the world
Go on

Were it but words that called me home
Relayed the dream that beckoned you beyond
Every injured soul
Needs a silent hand to hold
Someone to break
Pleading for the heart to hate

Hell is an empty house haunted by a child's voice


Rememberence
Lyrics: Shade, Mist
Music: Shade, Pax, Mist
Vocals: Mist

Tell your secrets to the ground the dampened leaves and broken twigs reveal your presence...
Where she has lain three hundred years where no one hears...
What bade you come what brings you to this place
Where words and deeds gently end where lovers lost might find again

And if you had found her three hundred years before
Laughter on the hillside
Dawn's colors in her eyes
Would you tell her your heart?
Oh your heart...

If you hover here you'll feel her amidst the dust and silence, in bones and withered leaves
Oh speak your heart to the trees the restless breeze
What bade you search for the love you should have known
In wildflowers overgrown you know her nameless stone

And if you find her three hundred years from now
Laughter on the hillside
Dawn's colors in her eyes
Though you have known her a hundred lives or more
Will you take her in your arms and kiss her perfect lips
Tell at last...
Oh your heart...

Oh my dear ones Seize the day


Dark Angel
Lyrics: Pax
Music: Eire, Pax
Vocals: Pax, Shade

I’ve never touched the hand of God
I’ve never seen the eye of Ra
I’ve never been to see Shiva
I’ve never met your sweet Allah

Hold me like a candle burning
Kiss me I can quench your yearning
Touch me I can end your misery

In my eyes a vision in black
In my mind there’s no turning back
In my bed she’s flat on her back
In my eyes a vision in black
A vision in black

I cannot love your rotting Gods
I will not pray to all the frauds
This child’s my only light divine
She turns my water into wine

(She can) She can strengthen my hell
(She can) She’s my darkest angel
(She can) She’s the only God I’ve known
She’s the only God I've known

In my eyes a vision in black
In my mind there’s no turning back
In my bed she’s flat on her back
In my eyes a vision in black
A vision in black
A vision in black

In my eyes a vision in black
A vision in black
A vision in black
A vision in black
A vision in black
A vision...


Betwixt and Between
Lyrics: Mist
Music: Rhymer, Shade
Vocals: Mist, Ailey
  Ophelia
Cordelia
Desdemona
And Kate
My sweetness and Beatrice
So precious your pain

I sing for your lovers
Your heavenly fathers to be
Your possible futures
Your obvious endings defeat me

Alma
Badoura
Dorothea
And Jade
Belphoebe is just like me
Such perfect disdain

I sing for the daughters
The heavenly mothers to be
Insanity's wanderings
Ritual fatherings greet me

So carry me (there's no one to)
Comfort me (there's no one to)
Care for me (there's no one to)
Capture me

Ophelia (I dream of the daughters to be)
Cordelia (the ritual fatherings)
Desdemona (the heavenly mothers to be)
And Kate (insanity's wanderings)
Alma (the sons and the lovers to be)
Badoura (the infidel creatures like me)
Dorothea (the virginal martyrs to be)
And Jade (the doting fathers)

I sing for the passive
The heavenly loyals to be
The unrewarded loves
Obvious endings defeat me

While I'm asleep I can open my eyes
What my lucid heart speaks
Conscious caution denies
Here betwixt and between
Lies Iago's demise
As I sing for my creatures
Their infidel features

Ophelia (I dream of the fathers to be)
Cordelia (the heavenly loyals like me)
Desdemona (insanity's wanderings)
And Kate (suicide's followers)
My sweetness (the virginal martyrs to be)
And beatrice (the doting lovers for she)
So precious (the unrewarded like me)
Your pain (the infidel creatures)
Alma (the worshipful followers)
Badoura (the doting mothers to be)
Dorothea (the constant martyrs)
And Jade (the unaging fathers)
Belphoebe (the unloving characters)
Is just like me (insanity's wanderings)
Such perfect (the heavenly daughters to be)
Disdain (the obvious endings)

Unfulfilled
Lyrics: Angel
Music: Eire, Shade
Vocals: Pax

Our final words
This darkened night
A shattered sky now settled
Your love that chokes yet tries to comfort
I've grown beyond the wish to escape
Now I realized, unfulfilled,
all the dreams I long for
Our love you said would always last
Yet grows so numb and now so cold
I know my love would never last
My heart still burns for you
The passion drained from your lips
Your eyes are lost
So cruel to be haunted by your memory
I see you no longer understand
Your fear tries to control me
Skin turned cold, overpowers
It can never support me
Your soul was my cherished hope
Only burns to come to me

I promise never to hurt you
I promise never to hurt you
That's why I have to leave you

I promise never to hurt you
I promise never to hurt you
That's why I have to leave you


Incarnate Persistance
Lyrics: Shade, Mist
Music: Shade, Rhymer
Vocals: Mist

And if I’d the spell to claim your existence
Your clandestine thoughts
Your soul’s soft persistence
I’d follow the mirror aglow with your image
Your water-grave eyes
and your lingering fragrance

But, unknown by you lost in the shadows
I Fade and Remain
Love incarnate
Mere irreligion
I Fade and Remain

Oh my kind can dwell with infinite patience
My reverie thoughts
have traveled great distance
Yet deign I embrace you with meek adoration
Your fragile humanity rised with contrition

Love incarnate lost in perfection
You Fade and Remain
Youthful Timeless
Deification
You Fade and Remain


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

Should I let me guide me
All that lies before me
And If I lay beauty before me and above me
And If I lay beauty behind me and below me
Is that wrong of me
To escape these surroundings

Agony is the moment created
Redefined and riveted

And If I lay beauty behind me and below me
And If I lay beauty before me and above me
Is that wrong of me
Is that wrong of me

Syllables to coat the cracks where
Memory shatters without language

Beauty lies before me
Beauty lies above me
Beauty lies behind me
Beauty lies beneath me
Is that wrong of me
To escape these surroundings

Belief remains
The mind ultimately reigns

Blasphemy
Lyrics: Shade
Music: Shade
Vocals: Shade

I remember when I was just a little child
I remember when all of this felt so alive
I remember when I could see and I could smile
I remember when I would hope and I would try

I remember when I would stare out at the miles
I remember when I could fall deep in blue skies
I remember when I was just a little child
I remember when all of this felt so alive

now I look around and all of this just feels like nothing
now I look around and all of this is so declined
now I look around and wonder why my heart feels nothing
now I look around and wonder why the blue skies died

now I look around, I realize that I've been tainted
now I look around, I see the world through blurry eyes
now I look around and all of this just feels like nothing
now I look around and all of this is so declined

and all of this is so declined


Ghost in the Light
Lyrics: Rhymer, Mist
Music: Eire, Rhymer
Vocals: Mist, Ailey

Dream...
I can't see light, I can't see light
The wind is howling
It swallows me
whole
