The Essence of Motion

I see the leaves are changing
From a brilliant green to a multitude of colors
Autumn arrives, and they die
The earth, the customary place for their decay
The same song for centuries
Its verses glide through time
I see the snow is falling
A peaceful dream, devoid of imperfection
Search with me and you'll see
A most beautiful sight, so pleasing to the eye
Waiting for an eternity
Seems as though the laws of life have changed
The old song fades into obscurity
The words have gone away
A day without sun can't kill me
But in time, I'll find a way to break this bind
Eternal nighttime, no light in sight anymore
As we wait for the sun to break through and to shine
Shine

Dream the Day Away
07:44
|

|
Away, away from here
Beyond the reaches of the dying sun
A final wish remains unanswered
And countless fingers cling to reason
I'm still unsure where I've landed
After my great fall
Through the mist I read your eyes
Can't conceal the hatred inside
What atrocity did I commit to destroy your faith in me?
I try to dream the day away, but it doesn't help me
Remember when we stood together
And gazed into the endless sea
Those are the days I'd like to live again
One day you will find sadness in your life
I tried to tell you why, don't you remember?
Wasted all this time, searching for a sign
The reason you must try to remember
In my life, I can recall
A great rise, and even greater fall
I've seen it all
I now see I must roll with the tide
Think back only to realize
I am alone...always alone...to die alone

Tomorrow's in Doubt
10:20
|
|||
|
For too long, I lay silently contemplating
"Stay your tongue" is what I'm told
Time and time again
I grow tired, and wait for sleep that never comes
Left to drown in muddied seas
It's been this way for ages now
Endless nights bring heavy eyes, I know
A pounding head and a bleeding heart, I know
Too far away to run
Any dreams I may have had come screeching to a halt
I need salvation
Cleanse the wound so that I may live again
Wait for tomorrow
And hope it's brighter than it was today
Foolish cries from a foolish man
I now realize my hope’s in vain
Once again you come to me in dreams
I cannot stop you
Now inside...now inside, penetrate
I can clearly see that I am dead
As tears fill my eyes, I look to the sky
Raising my hand, I call silence
In visions I see what might have been
But yesterday's gone
To hope for tomorrow and what it may bring
And leave it behind

Silent Cry
07:15
|
|||
|
A silent cry visits the heavens
You crack a smile as it fades to infinity
Unheard by all, my fate secured
I fall to my knees and cover my face
Though tears in my eyes, I peer through my fingers
An empty call, result unknown
The choices before me, a tempting lot indeed
I choose to grab one, you pull it away from me
Find joy in my torment, and light in my suffering
I stare at you still, but now you're laughing
It's burning always
Cannot extinguish the flame

Let Me Breathe
07:56
|

|
This heart of mine, unseen for ages
Grows black in time, and falls to the Earth
Violent dreams tormenting me, paint a darkened scene
Your master plan, the task at hand is to take my life away again
I brace myself for you, and the hell you've put me through
I'd like to feel the air, I'd like to breathe again one final time
So now you're blind and can't see, a sudden sadness grips me
These complications impede my ability to breathe
What have you done to me?
I see no wound yet still I'm bleeding
Why is this happening?
I'd like to know why I'm not breathing anymore
I've heard it all before, and I tire of the lie
Tire of the lie
Just let me breathe
Let me breathe
This heart of mine, begins its healing
Must find a way to regain the feeling
There's nothing you can say or do
That will nullify the damage done by you
I take comfort in knowing that you are gone for good
Yet I feel your eyes watching from afar

Fragments
09:38
|

Memories of another time
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
Though distant, I can still hear their voices
Begging me to avenge their pain
Silence, a welcome sound at this moment
I'd rather be anywhere but here
The fragments of a life in upheaval
Remained untouched for all who care to see
A painful reminder of the way things used to be
I'm drowning
It's harder now than it ever was before
Where are you standing?
Yes I can see you, but I can't see your face
Who are you fooling?
You have deceived me for the last time
Looking to another time
I stand alone on my own in the future
I've struggled to forget what befell me
The memories will always stay with me
Tired of the endless failure
"Suck it up and accept your fate"
You tell me, though I choose not to listen
A stubborn fool, unwilling to be saved
Must endure another endless day
I wither away, I can't be saved
Looking past the troubles of today
I wither away to nothingness
I'd like to start again
With a better plan to follow
And trust in me, and only me
I can trust no other
A new day arrives, and I embrace the sunlight
Now to sweep aside the horrors of the past
A great time to be alive, the lessons learned stay with me
So now I test myself to see if I survive

Sleep at the Edge of the Earth
by Wilderun
supported by 5 fans who also own “Tomorrow's in Doubt (Remixed)”
I never cared about symphonic metal at all. I do very much care about folk as well as progressive metal, and so I couldn't resist after reading the third exceptional AMG review for Wilderun in a row. 'Sleep...' has been on my radar for quite some time, being graced by one of the most beckoning cover arts I have ever seen. The band more than lives up to its reputation, composing great musical pieces from start to finish. I absolutely love the multitude of influences being put together here.
