She rose with the tide of the angel’s roar
My universe focused, comprehension soared
Step down, get back with the stormy seas
Her path will not be stopped

Down the iron rails by the glowing tracks
Right where the sunset clouds are moonlit
They won’t see her hands as she pulls them up
But I know in my soul this is it

CHORUS:
Bless the pauper, bless the king
Bless the fall and bless the spring
Right the path and harm no one
In the end it’s never done

New skies,    new skies
New skies,    new skies

Two mountain ranges too many, every cold blanket of stars
Every path that I trace from this land quite afar
Every forgotten past, every forgotten night
Every dance was incandescent in the warmest light

Between the new moon and the seas of glass
The horizon’s disguised, but this too must pass
Point your bow to the east 'til you find the sun
Hold steady 'til the morning comes
.
a family-    
that isn’t blood 
a heart...expanding... 
impossibly like the heavens

a thousand ----
suns setting and rising,
in our baby’s eyes
in our baby’s eyes

Bless the high mountains, Bless the curling waves
Bless the lords and the ladies and the kneeling knaves

New Skies

fly down the road like an earthbound sparrow
twist and turn
lose concern
escaping constraints of the straight and narrow
drop restrain
break the chains
hug every corner and get all your thrills
speed and glide
hit your stride
bomb every valley; attack all the hills

CHORUS:
Who says mechanical things can't have soul
Spread your polished steel wings
Let's roll

twist the throttle
mash the pedal
just a little
ride the metal

velocity conjures the finest of things
tires will squeal
every turn of the wheel
gliding down roads on swift mechanical wings
don't delay
blaze away
don't spare the horses more haste and more speed
kick in the turbo
speed up the tempo
destinations be damned it's the journey you need

 CHORUS

Primordial (demo)

Name your poison or choose your pleasure
one will lead to the other
vagabond or a man of leisure
six of one
a half dozen of the other

epic trek or a tough ordeal
Gelding steed or beast of burden
stormy seas or an even keel
we all take a licking
but we keep on ticking

Early bird always gets his worm
Second mouse gets the cheese
misconception or a lesson to learn
Shoot to kill
Or simply aim to please

This Or That (demo)

Taking Complications to the Sea

Taking Complications To The Sea

#songaweek2016

It’s those old kind souls
  -That move and shake me to my bones
It’s them spirits alone        	        	
  -The only ones wearing the light
With a gentle faith in the face of
  -The darkest days of man
 
CHORUS
I sing their song --but I struggle
I struggle to keep the path
A single kind deed --like a cairn
That shows the way home


VERSE
The ones that seek and pause
  -In humanity’s golden rays
The ones that live and connect
  -The brotherhood of man
The simple life, the simple road
  -In a journey to the next step
 
CHORUS


With shadows that shine
  -A light that eyes cannot see
With wisdom that unties
  -The tangled nature of man
They shall not  be moved 
  -despite this lost world spinnin’ around
 
CHORUS

It’s them old kind souls 
It’s them old kind souls 
It’s them old kind souls 
that move and shake me to my bones
