There’s a light in the wood, it leads you to answers
And it’s misunderstood, it isn’t your master
"And I’ll be the one, to pull down the sun
And give you the dark, and safe harbour"
There’s a wolf at the door, waiting to be spoken
And he drinks at your thoughts, even when they’re broken
"And I’ll be the one, to pull down the sun
And give you the dark, that you’ve been after"
I will see you in the long dark brother
Walk through the fire, and drink to our memory
And I, will see you in the long dark brother
Wade in the fire, and drink to our legacy
Now, now I know that stars all die, given the time
Your light still flickers here
And now, now I know that stars all die, given the time
Your light still flickers here, moonchild

Holding court
With dying thoughts of legacy
When they come for you
You’ll remember my name
Shedding fear
Beyond my years of bravery
When they come for you
Then you’ll know their names
Lepa Radić lives

Birds on a Wire
04:40
|
|||
Like birds on a wire
Watching the snow
Soon one will tire and
Fall to the earth below
Like stars in the summer
That died in the spring
A friend and his lover
Smile and take a knife to the king
The pieces of the world that I have won
I climbed inside a heart of oblivion
Shackled to the light of a dying sun
If this is darkness, brother I am one
Like blood in the river
That fades in the rain
Washed out to the ocean
I wonder if he was in pain
Like pieces of silver
Lost to the game
The familiar shiver
Of another hopeless exchange
The pieces of the world that I have won
I climbed inside a heart of oblivion
Shackled to the light of a dying sun
If this is darkness, brother I am one

Hiraeth
04:34
|
|||
And in the land of the beautiful
Time won’t listen
We worship at the feet of the dull
As weakness glistens
Violence rings from her tongue
Her stars read sorrow
Collapse at the weight of the words
The romance is borrowed
Whir in the calm of the night
The pull of the earth
The leak in the mind
Turn into the line of the fire
The state of your worth
Is measured in time

Pilgrim
05:23
|
|||
I looked into the sun
Hoping to see the end
And as the light burned down
I thought I heard you my friend
It’s always the silence
That leaves the loudest sound
And as they called you pilgrim
I cursed this hollow mound
And there will always be
Iron in these hills
And as the sun sets in the mountains
I can hear you in the still
And there will always be
Iron in these hills
And as the sun sets in this sadness
You flicker in us still

Empire
04:26
|
|||
We are empire
Still in embryo
And as the spiders eat their young
We’ll smile on what’s to come
Bring forth the silence
The hush before the yell
And as the horde begins to pull
With the heart of an animal

Under the Eaves
02:33
|
|||
Under the eaves
The morning waits for no man
And I’ve been a light that burns dim
Under these eaves
The setting sun’s a shutter for these hours
"Mark my words, this won’t end well
Believe me’
"
Under the eaves
The terror falls away again
And I’ve been a smile that wears thin
Under these eaves
The eventide pulls rescue from your ruin
"Mark my words, you’ll be well
Believe me"

Tides End
07:09
|
|||
Siren calls
In the dreams that I remember
The beating stalls
In the darkness of November
And tides will end
Before their time
Tides will end
And the lighthouse is fading
In the arms of the night
The ocean is waiting
The islands are under the waves
And the bones of the broken
Play the songs of the tired
So honour this moment
And walk out into the fray
