Tracks



01. Neptune Is Dead

Cloak me, surround me, I envision my own death
The path has reached it's end
And streams of gold promise nothing.
This is not time.
This is not time.

Birds know nothing of this, it is our vanity.
We create this death, we create this entity.
We have created death, Neptune is dead.

Come here, find me and be where you once belong.
No light, no dawn, always darkness.
Who will find me now that my soul has gone?
No light, no dawn, forever darkness.

The mammal meets the steel and litters this plastic ground,
The blue in the burst reminds me of something true.

I know that when I die the world is alive
And I cannot see a world without them, those who came before me
I cannot see a world without them, those who stay after.
I search for a greater meaning, and still I find nothing.

02. Feather And Bone

It is a familiar place that the road leads toward.
Forever dying and stripped of all but nothing and fed to nothing.
Wide eye cannot see the beyond, they will not look upon it's face.
The ride to that which has no soul, the ride to nothingness.
Words fall empty, words filled with heart
The wide distance pulls us apart.
Horses are rapid and ready. White light chases light.

04. All Life Converges To Some Center

I was young and you promised that we would live forever.
Now the road is too clear, and seeing makes me choke.
The brother, the sister and the son. All of them are gone.
Who will conduct the ending scene, now that my love is extinct?
Once we have reached the silence, the making of my soul will be extinct.
Slowly lead to a home far from home, with no space between.
The ashes of our lives fill the distance with no great light.
Nothing was promised, it always remains.
Horses are rapid and ready.
