lyrics

Incantation through speech,
I will take your fears.
Moon and sun: combine.
Fiery out and dim within.

Go – I bring the wind in your steps.
Tradition gone and restored today.
Our home can’t be nothing but a memory…

“Grasp a stone,
Be on my rope no more”
- Shaman words glistening… where are mine?
I sink in a well
I grasp for the sun
I pull myself out into a battle slashing for my life.
Clouds in my eyes,
I search for my tongue.

Blue light beads fall from our eyes
Our feelings sign an ominous disguise

Fight on…

Augmented eyes, I see intent of this mob.
A swirling “kill,” “revenge,” “hunt down.”
I can’t see who is who.

“Take my hand”
Cloud eyes.
“Take my hand”
My well.
“Take my hand”
My cell.
Let go my mind.

As his veil descends
I’ll tap to the blue light
To save those that tie me here
Before I’m he.
Clear any hunters before the gifts go to waste.

[Oh] The sinews and my bones
Plant the trees of our future.

Sweeping the fields before I wane
Blur surrounds me
I can’t see who is who

Hunters turn to sand as I will… but they all look the same
I won’t stop for the ones I lost.
It has control.

March to home I led them,
But the scene is twisted like I’m looking through water
The shaman is leering closer
Must finish my task…

I awake.
Innocence is mine – My ritual.
Now – make them into sand.
We are one.
