Movement in Wake
03:03
|
|||
Do I see the light of heaven
Up above
Or am I staring at the inferno
Below
Am I trapped in between
As my brothers and sons
Or have I
Have I met my reaping from the seeds
I did sow

Slow Soul
03:19
|
|||
I send my many thanks
To the masters of good will and restraint
Well they rehearse
Such terrible verse
They don't scream or curse
But they know how to assume the worst
It frightens my slow soul
To light a pire, and leaving coals
To chill the bones of the wicked
I was not a slave
Just taught to behave in a certain way
But I've learned changes that became
The same thing every day
My slow soul
Is on compressed coal

Prayer #1
04:36
|
|||
I've got so much to show for
To make me the child you adore
Oh, mother, Earth mother
Mother doesn't love you the way I do
Father, I don't mean to bother
But I've begun to teeter and totter.
I've been smothered, and I can stutter
These are only gifts for you
You know what is on mine
You know what there is to find
Whether I'll feel you on my ear
Whether I'll make you disappear
Take me as I am
I'm doing the best that I can
If good is not enough
I can only vie so much for your love
With blood on my hands
They're no nails, but understand
If good is not enough
I can only vie so much for your love

Movement in Grace
01:08
|
|||
Gently ease me off my knees
I'm not the kind of boy that needs to be apeased
Press your palm into mine
Lift me as our fingers intertwine
In line
In sullied mind
|
||||
5. |
||||
Am I man who has met many mountains
Or do I stand still
Do I drown in parted waters
At someone else's will
Am I wrong to assume
That golden serpents bear bad fruit
That acts of greatness
Can never be weightless
And even when angels had woken
I strain to hear if a single word is spoken
This weight is too much
I'm beginning to wonder if it isn't too much
To handle
This is too much to handle
From on high
|

Sinner
03:58
|
|||
I am a sinner who knows his way
I am your child who has lost his place
I can't talk now
But I won't walk out
So hear me
So clearly
You are the hands that will hold my fears
You are the son, and the moon, and the seer
If it be true
Send a sign soon
If you be greater than man
Maybe I can

Prayer #2
02:26
|
|||
What started as a kiss on the forehead
Led me to putting you in my life instead
And I believe
If I am him, and he is me
There's nothing I can't see
Or am I blind
Enough that I get left behind
I send my many thanks
To every bright spot of every day
No matter what I do or what I say
You love me either way
And I pray for success and love
And that my words reach high up

Our Father
05:09
|
|||
Our father loves and he lives
For all that he takes and gives
It is what it is
And it is all his
Our father lets the innocent suffer
With the welfare of the wicked as a buffer
All is fair in his love and our war
A sensible man is battled and torn
And I have lost the light
What is wrong and what is right
There will be a new life for me
I don't know where it will lead
But as far as I can see
it is where I need to be

Movement in Truth
02:19
|
|||
If there is no father or mother in the sky
Or brother to save my kind
Then there is still something bigger than me
Something I'll probably never see
Maybe what my brother meant
Was loving and to go and succeed my recompense
To go hence
At no one else's expense
|
||||
13. |
Brother
06:01
|
|||
I have angels
That stole me from my tomb
I walk once more
I glow with newness
I grow from my roots
I hear the score of victorious horns
If a brother meets a brother
To save one from the other
I am reborn
And I go to rest
And I have been so blessed
