Branches of a Tree - Poison Frog

inscribed within the runes
a tale of sun and moon
the words tell stories of endless life we find

we set our eyes
where the earth meets the skies
our promise to kin beyond the waves

in a land beyond the sea, we sail, a foreign tree
beneath the waters of humid skies partake of poison skin

sail with me, an earth release
if you lost all that you had, regret?
and there you take my hand, you draw the curtains on
a kiss, my love, I'll see you soon

in a land beyond the sea, we sail, a foreign tree
beneath the waters of humid skies partake of poison skin

as I entered the dream
I walked through the door
waiting for me was everyone I ever knew
suddenly life made sense
I laid on the cold ground
it touched my shivered spine
looking up at the humid skies
and heard the voice again

inside us, within you
discover us within you
inside us, within you
discover us 

inside us, within you
discover us within you
inside us, within you 
discover us 

the walls were black
the rain was dry
the stars of galaxies grew within.....

the voice that spoke to me
were those that came before
I slept safe while their smile crept my veins 

we stood with toad in hand
embraced the poisoned land
a kiss, my love, we made it through

our eyes return to sea
we sailed the foreign tree
beneath the waters of humid skies we sailed....

Poison Frog

and then I call your name
and then you reappear
my jungle poison frog

and then I lose control
and then I walk the floor
my jungle poison frog

within the earth release
there is no turning back
embrace the toad within

when the walls are black
when the rain is dry
partake of poison skin

walk into the dream
life before your eyes
shivered on the floor

live without regret
obey the voice inside
from those who came before

and then I call your name
and then you reappear
my jungle poison frog

and then I lose control
and then I walk the floor
my jungle poison frog

Midnight Pact

Ever thought if you could live without your skin?
And go to a place not far from here?
I can take you there, close your eyes

In the middle of the night you wake
Drop of blood running down your face
The mark on your wrist means you're chosen now

Take a step through the misty grey
Down the path where the spirit waits
Put your feet into the water now

Take me back down to the river
Take me back down where the spirit floats
Separate the ghost

Joined together in the atmosphere
The spirit hand takes away your fear
You let go, the dream takes over now

Take me back down to the river
Take me back down where the spirit floats
Separate the ghost

Spirit realm, is there room for me?
Spirit realm, will you take these chains?
Spirit realm, is there room for me?

Ever thought if you could live without your skin?
And go to a place not far from here?
I can take you there, close your eyes

Separate the Ghost

uncovered secret, an endless divide
starless night, in the cold
waiting there for you, a burning wick of time

void of hope, darkest night, cold.
raise your eyes, look into the skies

I'll be there
I'll be there

another secret has opened my mind to the thought of endless light
the worry there for us disappeared with hope

count on me
count on me
count on me
I'm there

in case you didn't know, the struggle is deep in our veins
tempered walk, take it slow, take it slow
you always know there is light at the end
so push

count on me
count on me
count on me
I'm there

Endless Divide

There, beneath the humid skies
The foreign tree, the earth release
We were there if you remember, your shivered spine
The door was open and together, beneath the sky

Call on me, I will be, your hidden stowaway
Call my name and wait, I'll find you

Dark clouds above the waves
You left me there, but I won't stay
When darkness falls I will find and stow within
And there I'll be to remind you of poison skin

Call on me, I will be, your hidden stowaway
Call my name and wait, I'll find you

Darkness gathers on the horizon
Flashes between the rolling waves
A friendly whisper in our ears
Brings to mind the earth release
Our image is mirrored across the stars

Wind won't always blow our way
With eyes ahead, we live, without regret
When dark waves pull they will bind you and drag you down
Extend your hand in the darkness
The lost are found

Call on me, I will be, your hidden stowaway
Call my name and wait, I'll find you

Stowaway

Dusk has settled down on a day so beautiful
descending rays of light so colorful
and it's hard to say goodbye

Day has passed to night on a life so beautiful
and every passing year was lived in full
and it's hard to say goodbye

If you knew how the ending went would it change the way you live?
If you knew another's fate would it change the way you give?
Will you be remembered when you're gone?
As the clouds just pass along

We go our separate ways without a smile for a friend...
maybe there's a better way?

We've left memories here that'll never fade away
The love we gave was free and that's what it's for
And I wanna tell you, when I'm gone, when you think of me I couldn't love you any more.

Now that the journey ends do you look back with regret?
Or will you remember the days and be proud of how it went?
Will you be remembered when you're gone?
As the clouds just pass along

We've left memories here that'll never fade away
The love we gave was free and that's what it's for
And I wanna tell you, when I'm gone, when you think of me I couldn't love you any more.

If there was a way to make it back
and relive the times we cried and laughed
I wouldn't change one thing
I wouldn't change one thing

In your next life find me
In your next life find me
In your next life find me
In your next life find me
In your next life find me
In your next life find me
In your next life find me
In your next life find me
In your next life find me

Dusk Has Settled
