Dark Day Approaching

Well the storm is coming to us
It brings with it trouble and sorrow in its way
There's a dark dark, day approaching
A lot of people gonna have to pay

Chorus:

Hey, hey, hey
Don't worry 'bout tomorrow
Hey, hey, hey 
Tomorrow's gonna be another day

I see my train a comin'
I see it coming closer, closer to take me up
It's coming for to get me
To take me to my healing cup

Chorus

I see the bodies falling
I see them falling into the sun
I smell the corpses burning
And the stench got me scared and on the run

Chorus

I wake to find my power
Like lightning falling from the sky
I breathe and lift my head up
The song I heard made me cry

Chorus

Dark Day Approaching

Under Black Starlight

Under black starlight
Seasons don't change
Learning from sorrow
What to arrange

Chorus:

Blinding white shadows that
Light up night
Nine dripping candles
Are drawing up light

Under black starlight
Happiness fades
Bright melancholy to
Chase away shades

 Chorus

Under black starlight
Tears turn to joy
Green turns to red and
Girl becomes boy

Chorus

Under Black Starlight

The Music I Make

The music I make  I raped, I raped inside of a hurricane
The tunnel of life I shaped, I shaped it strong, and I was insane

The vision I have I make, I make it out of a growing tree
The jelly of time I bake, I baked it stiff till I became free

The feeling I have is wild, is wild and pure like an animal
The rhythm is of a child, that plays all day with the planet ball

The action I take is right, it's right to do what I want to do
The fiction you choose is dead, is dead to all, and it's dead for you

The reason I speak is new, is new as the dawn of a perfect day
The halo I wear is full, it's full of thoughts for which angels  pray

The evil I find is dark, is dark and deep as the pit of Hell
The people in there are sick, sick and blind, and that's why they fell

The beauty I see is  strange, is strange and vast as a rippling wave
The waters I dredge are rich, are rich and full, and their taste I crave

The Music I Make

You're Supreme

Making up for all the times I failed to tell you
You're supreme
Taking up the threads that led to when I met you
In a dream
Waking up and finding out that you are more than
I can know
Cleaning off the windows I can see your face      
Begin to glow

Chorus:

You take me out
To the edge of night
Your veils glide down
Down to dark from light
I'm in your dream
We'll wake up in time
Our souls ascend
Starlight as we climb

Breaking up the frost and ice that left us shattered   
Now we see
Looking out on broad horizons with a band of      
Red and green
Take me to the level that I see above me    
Shining down
Realizing who you are and what you are in    
Living sound

Chorus

Patching up the tears and holes that left our garments  
Torn and frayed
Shutting out the ghosts and specters that still haunt us   
They have strayed
Burn away the cobwebs and the spiders lurking 
In our minds
Sweeping up the dust and tatters till we see through 
Pulled down blinds

Chorus

You're Supreme

I Don't Think So

I don't think so
I don't think you need to know
I don't think so
I don't think you need to know

Funny people that seem different than before you
Had the change that made you doubt
If the people and the things you loved meant more to
Someone else that moved you out

I don't think so
I don't think you need to know
I don't think so
I don't think you need to know

Chorus:
There's a plot against your life
There's a feeling deep inside that tells you
Things are not what they should be
Things are different from what your gut tells you

I don't think so
I don't think you need to know
I don't think so
I don't think you need to know

Funny people that seem different than before you
Had the change that made you doubt
If the people and the things you loved meant more to
Someone else that moved you out

I don't think so
I don't think you need to know
I don't think so
I don't think you need to know

Chorus

I Don't Think So

Vanishing Song

The Radiant Feel

You've got the radiant soul
You've got the radiant feel
You've got to take it spread it round
I heard a sound on the make
Something was found on the beach
That made an echoing, freezing sound

Chorus:
You're sparkling and shining a light
That wakes up the dead from a dream
I see how the wrong turns to right
We'll ride on your beam
Shining your beam

The people take what they want
The people want what they sell
They sell them dreams in a vacuum pack
You walk through fire on the street
You talk to General Heath
So tragic that you can't turn time back

Chorus

They've made a statue of you
They call it master of winds
It turns around on the seventh floor
You've got the radiant soul
You've got that radiant feel
We see you pass through the golden door

Chorus

The Radiant Feel

Daybreak over sands of the night
Moonlit valleys torn from the sun
We wake in a dream (we're in flight)
No spell can reach us on the run

Chorus:
Eye of the shadow
Looking at you
Eye of the shadow
Marking what's true

The stars over us make a map
They spell secret words I can hear
The scent of perfume in her lap
I seek wandering herds drawing near

Chorus

I slip through the rocks by the fire
My thoughts traveling far through the night
The wind will lift up and inspire
We weave through the darkness and light

Chorus

The Eye of the Shadow

Sad, Sad Clown

It's you. It's you. You got me in stitches baby
I laughed till I cried and cried till I couldn't cry no more
Couldn't cry no more

It's all a laugh. A ludicrous farce for fools
I'm cracking up at clowns moving on the stage of life
Stage of life

Lampoon of life. The comedy masks are fixed
Big fun, and games. This dark tragicomedy's insane
Insane

A sad, sad clown with tears painted on his face
A painted smile that wipes off with greasepaint down the drain
Down the drain

Ha ha. Boo-hoo. There's no use avoiding jokes

Sad, Sad Clown

X

Entwined in sorrow
Embraced by fear
Must steal and borrow
Dark shades come near
Reach out and touch the
Light engraved upon her face

The boughs are breaking
The treetops sway
Her hands are shaking
At break of day
Enter into
The snow that drifts around her face

Chase through the shadows
That cross her path
Where wanderer mad goes
In tepid bath
Feel and sense the
Waves that circle round her breast

Wait for the horses
That bring her home
Powerful forces
From heaven's dome
Shear and mould the
Leaves that circle round her head

You need to find her
Her name is X
It makes your mind blur
From nature's hex
Steal away from
Thorns that rip your soul in shreds

X, X, X,  X,  X, X, X, X, Echsen, Hexen, Echsen, Hexen

Autumn

We rake the leaves
And leave the piles
That heap so high
Climb up for miles

Our coats with crumbled
Leaves attached
Our humble cottage
Roof is thatched
With sprinkled colored leaves a falling down

Chorus:
Waking up again
To the self, my friend, lovely
Days are here again
Take my hand, my friend
And we'll see

A golden leaf 
Is spinning round
With fairy dance
Down to the ground

We walk into
The distant hills
Where Rip Van Winkle
Feels the chills
Of misty air
With sounds of hungry crows

Chorus:
Waking up again
To the self, my friend, lovely
Days are here again
Going home, my friend
And we'll see

This is the echo
Of the sun
The earth aflame
The summer's done

It's round above the equator
And now it enters through the door
To inner worlds
That light the darkest night

Chorus

Autumn

Gone Are the days

Gone are the days of our conceit
We fell from heights to our defeat
Visions at night that call us to sleep
Roll in our heads, counting our sheep

Chorus:
Listen to strains of distant music
That ring from choirs of Seraphim
Taking the road that only you pick
Use it to be more than you know

Angels of light pause over our heads
Lifting our dreams above our beds
Showing the way to towers afar
Traveling through swamps
To reach our star

Chorus

Redressing stains that marred the earth
Waiting for something to give birth
Damaged are vast tracts that once were green
Presenting bleak, desolate scene

Chorus

Searching like Noah over the waste
Send out a dove, evil erased
New worlds are sprouting from our hearts
Wholeness arrives, error departs

Chorus

Gone Are the Days

As the time goes by
With a certain step
There's a dull reprise
Watching silhouettes
Traced upon the wall
At the new sunrise

Chorus:
Racing with the sun
More work to be done
Days are shuffled like cards
Waiting for the rain
Living life with the pain
Sending you my regards

It's a habit of mine
To take flowers from time
It's entrenched in my past
Take this flower from me
Take it down to the sea
Nail it to your ship's mast

As the clock ticks away
Into faded days
Memory takes its place
Permanently gone
Into this love song
Searching for your face

Chorus

Memory Paths

Do the Snake

Wiggle till you vibrate your backbone
Squiggle when you're answering the phone
Shake your head and stick out your tongue and strike

Slither like a sweet belly dancer
Move across the floor like a prancer
Make those moves in time that I really like

Chorus:
Do the snake
I see you shake
Hiss and quake
Till you make me scream

Slide along the floor like a rattler
Shake your tail and you'll be a tattler
Warning that you're ready to make a hit

Winding through the sand of the desert
When you bite you know that it can hurt
Choose your partner, maybe one that you've bit

Chorus

Shivers traveling up through my spine
Making for your mark along a line
Wavy backbone snapping just like a whip

Squeeze me like a boa constrictor
Baby with my snake tongue I licked her
Wind around me honey and squeeze my hips

Chorus

I'm your snake charmer
Rattle that tail
Shake that rattle
Squeeze me boa baby

Do the Snake

Keep My Soul
