Touch

Reach for the sky
Reach for the sky

And when I get too close
You
Draw
Blood
With
Your
Touch

Touch
Touch
Touch

Paint with the blood
Spiked on the leaves

Paint with the blood
Spiked on the leaves

Release your hold
I ask of thee

Until the dawn

Sun
Set
No
More
Light
For
Now
The
Dusk
Has
Come
And
We
Shall
Fold
Away

A
Red
Eclipse

Turn from the sky
Run from the dawn
Paint with the blood
Cast from the sun
Paint with the blood
Spread with the leaves

You
Draw
Breath
With
Your
Touch

The sands of time
Illusions for eternity
Discovering the senses
Awakening

When the hourglass falls
Who will collect it all

When the hourglass fails
What will prevail

Nothing

What will
Prevail
Is just
A shell of the past

There's no
More time
To wait
For a

Change

I
Can't
See
The
Way
Forward

I
Can't
See
The
Way

As I look to the stars at night
I can feel them beckoning to me
Spanning forth as far as the eye can see

As I look to the stars at night
I can feel them beckoning to me
Spanning forth as far as the eye can see
As far as the eye can see

I
Can't
See
The
Way

I
Can't
See
The
Way
Forward

Will you walk into the snow
And will you feel the pain
That lingers with each breath you take
I know it's hard to want to feel the regret you may have, but
Please just know that you're the only soul I want to stay

I can't see
The way

As I gaze at the stars tonight
Full of dread as they're beckoning to me
Spanning onward as far as the eye can see

The end is fucking nigh
And none of us are listening
Grains of sand continue free falling

Awakening
Awakening
Awakening

The end is fucking nigh

What we ask of ourselves
Is just not enough

Take me away
Take me away

I don't know if I'll ever make it
I don't know if I'll ever see you

I don't know if I'll ever make it
The rain will wash away
I don't know if I'll ever see you again

The sands of time
Illusions for eternity
Discovering the senses
Awakening

When the hourglass falls
Who will collect it all

When the hourglass fails
What will prevail

There's nothing left but the stars tonight
And there's no hope for you or me
Grains of sand continue endlessly

The end is fucking nigh

As Far As The Eye Can See

Just once in a while
Forget where you are

And drift away
On a cloud of revelation

It's just a simulation
A fraction of the truth be told

What once was destination
Is now forever hills

Rain will wash away
All our uncertainty
As we ride
Further toward the dawn

To the dawn
To the dawn
To the dawn

Fly

Forever Hills

These reflections are deeper
Not sure how to handle it
Where does everything go
How does everything fit

Pacing from side to side
Wondering what it all means
Will it ever subside

No one ever told me
How tough these demons would be
Now that they have arrived
They're all I can see

Walking out the door
Looking at the view
I don't see me
All I see is you

These aren't the same reflections
I thought this was infectious
Trying for evolution
And it starts with a revolution

I've never had a breakthrough
Don't know if it will ever come
So I'll turn the other way
And see if I can run

Fire an arrow to the sky
See how high I can fly
Chase it through the stars
I wonder if I'll ever catch it from afar

There's nothing left for me in this realm,
So hand me the blue pill
And let's see if there's a thrill
Nope, just chill
Hanging out in a field
Watching the wind blow
Pondering if I'll ever see the river flow
Slow and steady
Consistent, reminiscent, changing, fading, raging
How did I get to this place again
Seems like I might never win

We're only here for a short time
So why not have a good time
Let's go to the place
Where we can always keep pace
We'll have to about face
Change everything that we need to
Make sure that nothing is see through
Try to do everything we have to
And then call it that new new

I'm looking down at the water
What do I see looking back
Something that wants to attack
So these layers I need to stack
No time here to slack

Do I believe in destiny
Not really, it's unoriginal
I find it subliminal
An easy answer to the visual and the physical
The unachievable, the unbelievable
It's something that can't be described
An illusion that is prescribed
That drops in on a dime
And tastes finer than lemon-lime

Seclusion, delusion, solution, conclusion
That's how it always goes
Even though no one knows
That's how the river flows
Keep your ducks in a row
It's a no-no
To keep it so-so
Do you know
I don't think you know, no

So keep spinning me up
Keep shooting me down
Keep on searching round and around and around

Spinning me up
Shooting me down
Searching round and around and around

Spinning
Shooting
Searching
Round and around and around and around

Spinning up
Shooting down
Searching round and around and around

Spinning me up
Shooting me down
Do you know
I don't think you know, no

Keep spinning me up
Keep shooting me down
Keep on searching round and around and around

Spinning me up
Shooting me down
Searching round and around and around and around and around and around

Spinning me up
Shooting me down
Keep on searching round and around and around and around and around and around

Spinning me up
Shooting me down
Keep on searching round and around and around and around

What is happening to me
What is happening to me
What is happening to me
What is happening to me

Gentle with this one

Breathe
Spores
Cut off all the ties
To your self

Try not to struggle
And release
All the expectations you keep

At last you shall see

Burn
And embrace
The end
Of
Your
Time

Set it up
And break it down

Enter the hive

Alter the space
Alter the mind
Alter the planes
Alter the times

Breathe in the spores
Breathe the spores
Breathe the spores

Breathe in the spores

Welcome to the club
Is this really happening
Is this really happening

Still unresponsive
Terminal juncture
Rush the injection
Restrain
Siphon the lifeblood
Transfuse with new elements
Bionic immersion
Synthetic occlusion
Rewire the vessels
Cybertronic evolution
Modal revision
Conduct a solution
Euphonic submission
The coda elusion

Flip the switch
Shut it down
Reset

Boot It Up

Break the code
Unplug
Cut the cord
Destroy

Please, help me up
Here, take my hand

Spores

I awoke in a field of waves
Past the point of sailing back
Fear and wonder intermingled in the forefront of my thoughts
For now, the plains of eternity were realized
And the mirage dissipated

Forward
Lost
The hours and eons petrified

Truth
Lies
All
Die
Dreams
Will
Pass
By

Truth
Lies
All
Die
Dreams
Will
Pass
By

Walking down the fluid pathway
The emblematic state of mind

Return into the system
A fixture of both space and time

The effervescent dendrites
Encapsulate, encase in light

The senses have lost meaning
And now we must escape into the night

Escape into the night

All light will fade with time
So search throughout the night

Down
Down
Down the hillside trail
Down
Down
Down into the vale
Down
Down
Down the Styx we sail
Down
Down
Down the past travail

Drown

Drown

What Once Was

Transcend the advent of apocalypse
And ride from the dawn
As the sun sets on all we have known

Alter synaptic pathways
Search for the sky
Fall down and see with psilocybin eyes

Purge inhibition
Identify the strain
Embrace
Cerebral change

Alter synaptic pathways
Sink to the ground
Rise up and gaze into the profound

Beneath the veil of mycology

Waves
Suspense of the rip tide
Terror
Of drowning inside the flash flood

You see what you are
You see what you've been
You know what you've done
And it's not over yet

We see what we are
We know what we've done
We know what's in store
And change might just kill us all

Alter synaptic pathways
Drown
Alter synaptic pathways
Drown
Alter synaptic pathways
Drown
Alter synaptic pathways

Rise up and see with psilocybin eyes

Drown
Drown
Drown
Drown

And see with psilocybin

Drown
Drown
Drown
Drown

On your existence

Descend the hill
To the unknown

Until the end
Your hand in mine
Composed of the dust of stars

That forms ourselves
That shapes our souls
That breathes the atoms to life

Until the end
Your hand in mine
Composed of the dust of stars

Unto the end
Our hands entwined
Fall to the earth

Drown
Drown
Drown
Drown
Drown

As we gazed out across the sands
The promise of a mirage beckoned us
Knowing there would be no salvation
But just a memory of hope
We marched on
We staggered forward
We crawled further

As far as our eyes could see
As far as our eyes could see
As far as our eyes could see

Greg Dunbar - Vocals, guitars, bass guitar, drum programming, synthesizers, recording, mixing, mastering

...Plains...

We made our last stand on the hilltop
The place we were meant to be

I'll hold the memories of you in my heart
And carry them to our graves

'Til the end
Your hand in mine
'Til sunrise comes

Death
Is only a dream
That once was familiar
And drifted away

The clouds opened up
And sunlight poured down

It's the end
Of our time
Cascading
Dreams in trine

Bring the rain
Drink the blood
Of the earth
Come undone

Bring the rain
Drink the blood
Of the earth
Come undone

Bring the rain
Drink the blood
Of the earth
Come undone

Bring the rain
Drink the blood
Of the earth
Come undone

Bring the rain
Drink the blood
Of the earth
Come undone

Bring the rain
Drink the blood
Of the earth
Come undone

Free yourself

Send it now

We are free
We are home
We are free
Free at last

Gone are the days
When we could just stand by
And wait for a change
We must make it ourselves

You are here
So let's dance
Atop the graves
Of our past

Cascading
Memories
To the end
Free at last

Cascading Memories

Here we are
Here we rest
'Til the end of the night

Fear not
For you are here at last
Embrace the change that is happening

Here we are
Here we'll stay
'Til morning comes
'Til the end of night

Fear not
For you are here at last
Embrace the change that is happening

Afterglow

Run
Run

Run
Run
Run

Run away when the dawn breaks
A new adventure has begun

Cast away on the morning tide
And set a course straight from the sun

Fly away on the morrow
And keep on soaring just for fun

Never coming down
Memories and dreams are here and they all must be won

Now we're going home
And bringing back the times we've seen and shared and sung

You better run
Back to the hills
Back to the trees
Back to the beginning of you and me
We'll run
Into all the thrills
Away from machines
Back to the beginning of you and me
We'll run
We'll run

Far away on a hilltop
A place that we all used to go
Look away in the distance
It's the ones that we all know

Laying down in the grass field
The wind is taking up our souls
I've got no hesitation
To leave the world behind with you

But wait, just you wait, the best is yet to come
Stay aflight
And see the world for what it is and what it can become

You better run
Back to the hills
Back to the trees
Back to the beginning of you and me
We'll run
Into all the thrills
Away from machines
Back to the beginning of you and me
We'll run
We'll run

Pastime

The last time we met
Was our final chance
To save us
From ourselves

Goodbye

All that remains
Is nothing more
Than a shadow
Of doubt

I can't let go
I can't let go
You said your farewell
Goodbye

And when I see your face
It's just a reflection
Of what I thought that I knew
But not of what you were

This time I know how the rest
Of our story goes

Hello for the last time

Is this really the end
Are we waving Hello goodbye
Goodbye

When I see your face
I let go of time
Goodbye
And when you smile
I just do the same
Goodbye
The end is here
And so am I

We're waving Hello goodbye
Goodbye

Blur the lines

The promises we made
Fell apart
Like the petals
Of a dead rose

Goodbye

Greg Dunbar - Vocals, guitars, bass guitar, drum programming, synthesizers, recording, mixing, mastering

Waving Hello (goodbye)

Fell
The nightmare
That captured your mind
Let the dusk fall
Abandon your time

A funeral forsaken
Obliterate the notion
Of peaceful passage by
A memory of what we
Lost and cast into the sea
Of sludge and smog and rote disease
A history of failing
To learn and not repeat the past

We teach ourselves to lie
And tread the beaten path to die

We teach ourselves to fucking lie
And there's no repercussions here

Blame not yourself
But ask who to blame for our existential crisis

Burn

Burn all the trees
Burn
Down to the ground
And when there's nothing more
Burn
Just say we did our best

To lie

We teach ourselves to lie
And waste each day until we die

We teach ourselves to fucking lie
And there's no solace

Fuck the ideal
Of faith that we'll find a better way

To live
To try
To find
A different path

We learn we must lie
And pray till we die
We teach them to lie
So they will obey

Cast off
To sunlit shores
And leave behind the essence of youth

Row
To your demise
Row
To bitter ends
Row
To salvation

Run
Run
Run

Escape the claws
There's no way out
There's no way out
The path is gone
There's no way out

And you shall burn

Burn with the trees
And return to the ground
From whence you first emerged
Burn
A seed reborn anew

There's no way out
There's no way out
There's no way out

Burn

Relive the fire
Burn all the trees
Down to the ground

We bid farewell on the hilltop
A graveyard of memories
Your tomb is there
And so is mine

The Nightmare Forest

Fall

Fall to your knees
And scream

Fall

Fall to your knees
And scream

Upon the ground
I place my hands
To shape the earth
Into the soil
The air
The sky
The water
If the roots won't grow
I'll bury my hands into the snow

Into the cold
Into the end
Of all I know
Into the snow
Death of my identity

Ingest
All The
Gifts of our
Natural phenomena

Visualize
Fantasize
Realize
There's not one reality

Blindness
Sunlit obfuscation
Collapse
And clutch at nothingness

Revive
Restore
Relive
Reborn
Prepare for the return of the cycle

And if the roots won't grow
I'll bury my hands into the snow

Shatter your mind
Cut open your skin and tendons
Let the blood pour
To breathe again

There is no hope
The pain is unending
Tear your flesh down to the bones
And wither to the end of life

Tremble
And now it's done

This is the end of all we know
And still you hallow your sense of control
Until the sunset falls
Until the dusk rises

The path awaits
What will unfold
Is nothing that has been seen or heard
The path awaits

Send it
Send it
Send it

You took my hand
And danced with me on the hills

Gone
Gone are the days
When I could hold
You in my arms

When I could gaze
Into your eyes

When we could dance
When you were here

Beyond the stars they'll speak your name
While far below the earth you'll remain
After the sunset falls
After the dusk rises

The path awaits
What will unfold
Is nothing that has been
Seen or heard

After the sunset falls

Fuck

Fly

Send it now

Familiar Drifting Away

The fire in your eyes
Like rays of sunset
Fading into the sky
At peace, at rest

The fire in your eyes
Like rays of sunset
Fading into the sky
At peace, at rest

The fire in your eyes
Like rays of sunset
Fading into the sky
At peace, at rest

Summon the hounds
And chase life
Heed the call

Break the trammels
That chain our vision
Heed the call

Heed the call
Heed the call
Heed the call
Heed the call

The rain will wash away
All our uncertainty
As we ride
Further from the dawn

The rain will wash away
All our uncertainty
As we ride
Further from the dawn
