From the Wild

08 The Last Days

03 From the Wild

02 Cry to the Moon

In honor of the ancient earth’s healing power, and with gratitude for our ancestors' wisdom…

L Y R I C S
Bring the light!
I have to shatter my illusions
of the dawn
And bring the fire!
It’s time we scattered all the ashes
to the ground
And bring me down…
to the one we have forgotten
Yet are bound

Bound by our glory
Bound by our fears
Bound by the simple taste
Of countless tears

And bring the wild!
The wind is tearing through
the blackness of the sky
And hold me, child…
In bitter rain
I’ll be your shelter
through the night
And close your eyes…
Though the sand and shadows rage
we look inside

For Grandmother’s tears
They have fallen
Four thousand years
Almost forgotten

Bring the light!
And bring the fire!
And bring the wild
And hold me, child

For we have fallen…
…to the ground
Into the quiet space…
…between all sound
And love has bidden…
…us to call
Upon her gentle grace…
…that heals all…

Bring the light!
And bring the fire!
And bring the wild
And hold me, child

For Grandmother’s tears
They have fallen
Four thousand years
Almost forgotten
Almost forgotten
All but forgotten

When the lady's dance is done 
And the last song is sung 
In a time when mists abide 
Inner space where dreams collide... 

Into the void I travel 
Into the shadows I fall 
Into the silent thunder 
Into nothing and all 

I'm falling, I'm falling 
The blackness is calling 
Shadows wrap around 
Silence is a mighty sound

from Maiden of Midnight, released 22 March 2015 
With Wade Evans (classical guitar), Scott Bears (electric guitar), David Alderdice (drums), Jesse Manno (keys), and Jared May (bass).

I heard the cry of Raven 
In the wild sky above 
for the one who was lost over the ocean 
Well don't give up my love 
My little dove

So I sent the god of thunder 
To break the stormy night 
But still, the darkness gathers 
So close your eyes 
I'll be your sight

And I would be the wind over the seas 
I would be the breeze, caressing you endlessly 
I would be the wind under your wings 
I would breathe, into you, in through you

And I know your wings grow weary 
I hear your silent cries 
But lift your heart my angel 
For you were born to fly 
On wings of light

And I would be the wind...

The Wind

Round and round and round and round 
Catch the stars and bring them down 
Ride the sky, a light on fire! 

(traditional, Hymn for the Russian Earth) 
If the people lived their lives 
As if it were a song, for singing out of light 
Provide the music for the stars 
To be dancing circles in the night

Maybe one day, you and I will leave this place 
Let the land return to its original grace 
With wild hearts, we will fly 
Angels of the earthly sky... 
And the desert blooms, in the rain we left behind 
Angels of the earthly sky... 

Golden we dissolve into the setting sun 
Let the earth rest in her beauty 

Touched so long by the hands of man 
Now life grows where the cities did stand 
And the winged ones play on the winds through the day 
And the rhythm of hooves dancing o'er the plains 
Will awaken the thundering earth from her grave 
Oh the rivers they will flow from the heart of her pain 
She will wash, wash away all the scars that we made 
And raise up the mountain as a pillar of praise 

For you and I, we have gone from this place 
Left the shame of our anguished rage 
Left it all, to return again 
To the endless sky from which we came 

We left our garments by the riverside 
We left our homes where we used to hide 
We gave our yearning to the ocean's tide 
We gave it all, we left it all behind 

And we are wild as the wind 
As we caress the earth and sky 
And we are lovers of this land 
And love is all that's left in time... in time 

Maybe one day, you and I will leave this place 
Let the land return to its original grace 
With wild hearts, we will fly 
Angels of the earthly sky... 
And the desert blooms, in the rain we left behind

Desert Blooms

from Maiden of Midnight, released 22 March 2015 
Featuring Wade Evans (classical guitar), Jesse Manno (oud keys, drumkit), Aharon Wheels Bolsta (various percussion), Adrienne Short (violin), and Jared May (bass)

We ride on ancient wings 
Our hearts awakening 
Sacred souls, wild and free, 
We are soaring on ancient wings 
Awakening, remembering, awakening... 

Respira la esperanza 
Con la fuerza del espiritu 
Inspira la esperanza 
Con la fuerza del espiritu 

(traditional Taize, words by St. Theresa de Avila) 
Nada te turbe, nada te espante 
Quien a dios tiene, nada le falta 
Nada te turbe, nada te espante 
Solo dios basta

Esperanza

From the album, Live at Immersive Studios

Shadowdances (feat. Meagan Chandler)

A stark, starlit night. 
Evergreen boughs paint the sky. 
Sound of raven wings. 

In the windswept reaches, that is where you will find Ariana Saraha & Fernando Medina, aka FLIGHT BEHAVIOR. 

Weaving spells from the very fibers of life – starlight, storm and stone – Flight Behavior incants the songs and paints the rhythms of the unheard earth and the forgotten ancients.
