At the dying of the day
As the dust and the leaves float away
She arises and ascends
’Cause the wind and the stars are her friends 

She’s a mystery
She’s a stray
And she flies on horizons of grey
A little laughter
A little love
To help me rise above
This burning world

She was crying when she came
Surrounded by flickering flames
Like an orphan at my door
Haunted by memories of war

She’s a mystery
She’s a stray
And she flies on horizons of grey
A little laughter
A little love
To ease the sorrow of
This burning world

The reckoning
Is beckoning
The sun has begun to descend
Insanity
And vanity
We stand at humanity’s end

At the dying of the day
Our tomorrows are burning away
Wounded and alone
Like lost birds we search for a home

Sanctuary 
For the strays
With our eyes on horizons of grey
I’ll give you shelter
Give you love
To ease the sorrow of
This burning world

And if i said to you
This is not the end
Would you stay with me
And  we could just pretend

That the world is fine
And it will all work out
We still have time
And there is no doubt

——

A chance to turn around
but not look back
It’s not too late 
To get back on track

——

What you carry inside 
Is the only hope
Our kind has
And we cannot let go

They’re closing in
Their shadows rise
But we won’t give in
There’s a world in your eyes

——

And this will all work out
We just need time
In a few more hours 
We’ll reach the stars in time

——

Run, don’t look back
we’re almost there
The ship awaits
in the cold night air

Stars align 
They guide our chance
A new world awaits
It’s in our hands

——

And if i said to you
This is not the end
Would you stay with me
So we could just pretend
That the world is fine
And it will all work out
We still have time
And there is no doubt

There's a World in Your Eyes

In loving reverence I offer you this sacrifice
And with this sacrament I take your spirit into me

All things that I am
I place in your hands
Fire from the dust, 
Spirit from sand 

I stand before you in the Temple of the Burning Veil
I give my glory to the fire of the cosmic will

Calling to the core,
Inviting the light
Weaver of the world’s
Eternal design 

Corpus numinosum 
Immaculatam hostiam
Mysterium tremendum
Sicut in caelo, et in terra

Corpus Numinosum

As a candle tries to burn
In a waterfall
And a melody is drowned
By a siren’s call

A dying prisoner is reaching from his cage
And just outside of grasp the key awaits
And I lie bleeding on the path to Paradise,
Trampled at the edge of Heaven’s gates

As a raven tries to fly
With its wings aflame
And a cat with plastic eyes
Claws a windowpane

A newborn strangled by the cord that gave him life
Dangles at the gallows of the fates
And I lie bleeding on the path to Paradise,
Trampled at the edge of Heaven’s gates

Addicted to the poison poetry of pain,
Cradled by the comfort it creates,
I lie bleeding on the path to Paradise,
Trampled at the edge of Heaven’s gates

Trampled

Find me,
A shadow in a garden of grey
Blind me
To sorrow for the dying of day

Under starlit skies
Under starlit skies

Bring me
A rose that will not wither with time
Sing me
An ever-changing wind-whispered rhyme

Under starlit skies
Under starlit skies

And shadowy fingers of the night,
Cautiously creeping,
Soothe fading light
To silent sleeping

How hollow and frail the earthly prize,
The perishing pleasure,
Next to the sky’s
Glittering treasure

Find me,
A shadow in a garden of grey
Blind me
To sorrow for the dying of day

Under starlit skies
Under starlit skies

Under Starlit Skies

Within disguises of skin,
Cast from the vast Totality,
We roam miles from home,
Divorced from the Source Reality 

Behind the blinds of our minds the memory lies 
We’re just the guests in this flesh that fades and dies  

(CHORUS)
We are estranged angels, you and I
We are the energy that lights the sky
We are estranged angels in disguise
Making the journey to the Great Sunrise 

We hear the call of the All
Echoing into infinity
We long to touch the Beyond
And yearn to return to eternity

To taste the grace of this place we swam the sky 
It’s passing fast
It won’t last, 
But souls don’t die

(Chorus)

All of this will end, 
But we will remain 

(Chorus)

Estranged Angels

The ocean sings a haunted song,
An anthem of creation
It calls to us across the years,
A timeless emanation

And you and I were shining when
Its waters first were flowing
And we will be as we were then
When warmer winds are blowing

(CHORUS)
When the sky is dying, 
When the moon is crying, 
When the wind is sighing 
In the star-haunted grey,
In the dying ember,
In the soul’s December,
I will still remember
When the wind blows our ashes away

The flaming spirals of the sun,
Like whispers to a lover,
Open now the gates of life,
Its mysteries to discover

And I remember you from when 
Its fires first were glowing
And you and I will meet again
When warmer winds are blowing

(CHORUS)

As long as has eternal Father 
Loved our ancient Mother
Have our souls and destinies 
Been bound to one another

I sit beneath a twisted tree
Where roses once were growing
And dream of beauty that will be
When warmer winds are blowing

(CHORUS)

Ashes

I
I count the passing days
And bow to Heaven high
Each moment that she stays

I
I hang above the flame
With fear of her goodbye
Embroidered in my brain

Will I survive the ride and stand upon the shore?
Will I be taken by the tide?

(CHORUS)
Lost in a storm on the ocean inside me
I’m holding on for dear life
Traveling blindly with no star to guide me
I’m holding on for dear life

She 
She changes by the day,
A quilted box of dreams,
A razor blade bouquet

I
Await the curtain call
As all the black of night
Bleeds across my wall

And every time she takes a breath before she speaks,
The word she says could be goodbye

(CHORUS)

I’m lamb to slaughter
I’m flame to water
I’m flying low and high

She lullabies me
She crucifies me
She bleeds the daylight dry

(CHORUS) 

Damon Orion: Vocals, guitar, bass, keyboard, drum machine
Music and lyrics by Damon Orion

Holding On for Dear Life

In the still
Of evening’s chill,
Clad in the candlelight
And the rush of rain,

I can hear
Her laughter clear,
A nightbird calling me
From my windowpane 

Like a nightingale she turned to fly
Rising high into the burning sky
Like a nightingale she cast her eye
To the world below and said goodbye

Dressed in white,
She touched the light
And kissed the mystery
Of the vast Beyond

Starry gown
And fiery crown
Shining eternally
In the endless dawn

Like a nightingale she turned to fly
Rising high into the burning sky
Like a nightingale she cast her eye
To the world below and said goodbye

Nightingale

This world has fallen prey 
To sickness and decay
We’re closer every day to immolation  

Humanity is blind
It failed to see the signs 
And now the human swine control the nation 

Let the games begin 

We are in the last days
Burning ever faster
Living in the shadow
Headed for disaster 

Never to return 

Obscenity’s elites
Parade through shattered streets 
Selling ringside seats to our destruction 

Poisoning our minds
Perverting humankind
They drink to our decline into corruption

The greatest show on Earth 

We are in the last days
Burning ever faster
Living in the shadow
Headed for disaster 

The countdown has begun 

The world we used to know is coming to an end 
Sometimes you’ve got to tear it down and start again 

We are in the last days
Burning ever faster
Living in the shadow
Headed for disaster
 
United we shall fall
