My head in the sky
My feet in this earth
My heart pumps the rivers
Delivers it’s worth
My tears fall as rain
My skin is the hide
My heart burns to ashes
As these worlds collide
Mouth of the river
Breath of the sky
Mother ,giver Provider, please hear this cry

This land, girt by sea, stretching eternally, reaching back, before prisons and disease
A time to be free, to live authentically, in a world that can burn and can freeze
But we falter, and conceal, and pretend not to feel, and we laugh at the death of the gods
Now the time is revealed, the times come to heal, stand together against the odds
On the earth, under the sky, before the gods, we die
On the earth, under the sky, before the gods, we die
We’re Free, but freedom for who, left in chains, there’s nothing to do
Too late, to wipe out this plague, to take back, this unholy mistake
An offence, too great to concede, invade a land, enforce defeat
Subjugate, then sublimate, entrenching fear, entrenching hate
True blue, not so true, nothing open, nothing new
Fuck you, and eureka too, this land means nothing to you….

Block Out The Light
05:56
|
|||
|
When you hear the darkness calling, and you welcome in the night
As you hear the silence falling, and the cold begins to bite
When the question’s one of Being and the answer’s falling short
You’ve got to block out the light
When you’re reaching for a rainbow and all you touch is dust
When the moment is forgotten and your steel has turned to rust
When you’re one eye short of seeing and the answer can’t be found
You’ve got to block out the light
Well now it’s daylight and you’re hiding yourself again, but in the starlight, there’s nothing left now to pretend
It’s just like magic, no matter how the story’s told, the taste of freedom, well this is how the story’s told, block out the light
It’s something primal, like the cycle of the moon, you got me howling, you know the dawn is coming soon
The pain and pleasure, you know the pleasure and the pain
The taste of freedom, well things will never be the same
Block out the light.
And so the cold grey dawn of morning, with all its fury and its might, another victory is dawning, if you can just block out the light, just block out the light

Reared by guidance Clear blue silence
Nulled by violence And time itself
Burn the altar Built by tyrants
Worship structures and time itself
Ancient wonder Harken thunder
Hear devotion Held inside
Burn the altar Built by tyrants
Nulled by violence and time itself
Standing tall Watching over all
Song of the earth, invoke
Buried under oak
Hear the earth
Feeling each new birth
Upon the wind we float
We people of the oak

The Sons of Muspell Ride
10:27
|
|||
|
From the south they come, and all the worlds will burn
A sword made of the sun, dragon tide - dragon tide will turn
Black guardian, cleanser of the earth
Nine worlds will burn, now witness new world’s birth
There’s many ways to feel this shame
And many ways to hide
There’s many road to other’s pain
And many roads to pride
Nothing to take literally
Nothing leads to hate
Warp and weft eternally
Spinning towards fate
Many ways to play this game
And end up trapped inside
Earth and sky beyond the frame
I feel I’ve taken flight
Fiction, myth, technology
The loss of second sight
The death of all philosophy
The sons of Muspell ride

The Longest Night
07:39
|
|||
|
Traction, what I'd kill to live, as I stare at the sky above
Innocence, stupidity, as I stare at the ones...the ones I thought I loved
Affluence, such poverty, such a meaningless excess
Immersed, phenomenologically, I lost myself, and found a tangled mess
All alone in this darkness, I'm too tired to fight
Left alone with the oneness of being, and the longest night

Ride The Abyss
07:44
|
|||
|
Born to inherent privilege, dealt the winning hand, the gift to see and understand
Ride this green dragon, through my purple dream, to find out nothing’s what it seems
Ride this green dragon, through my purple dream, to find out nothing’s what it seems
Now this abyss surrounds me, emptiness revealed, all that I am is unconcealed
I see your mouth is moving, your brain has gone to sleep, but every fucking tiny breakthrough outs you in too deep
I see your mouth it is moving, your brain has been asleep for hours, but now you’ve gained a pinch of insight you’re showing off your super powers yea

White Caps
06:43
|
|||
|
These wounds lie heavy in my heart
Intent withdrawn, my world has come apart
Surrender self to the waves
White in the black, my life is saved
The more I push, the less I gain
The more I give, the less I feel the pain
I’m cast adrift, on icy waves
The white capped peaks are all I crave
My burning heart resists the gloom
Enveloped by the ancient goddess womb
The icy warmth it beckons me
Forever I will rest beneath the sea

Despite, Not Because
05:53
|
|||
|
Curse those who live for pleasure, burn them alive
the young ones seek the treasure while the old ones wonder why
The blessed dance in starlight, their tears must shone
each perfect liquid diamond, truth to its own kind
A heart that's barely beating, no sacred care
a thought that's barely fleeting, a breath of putrid air
Curse those who live for pleasure, burn them alive
the young ones seek the treasure while the old ones sit and cry
Each futile search for meaning, just another day
I can't tell if I'm dreaming
This desperate search for meaning, just another day
I fucking hope I'm dreaming
I'm alive despite you, not because of you
I thrive despite you, not because of you

I’ve listened to this album on repeat all day today. It’s heavy, has excellent musicianship, great production, and melodies that stick in your head. It would have felt very comfortable in the mid 90s.
