Trapped inside a box in the sky Close your eyes to escape the city lights And you drift away to ignore it all Waken up by a thousand machines Will the time we spend here pass us by? Your summer's gone Wasting away Look for the shore Are you going back to when you were young? Seasons turn, you put on another coat Yet the scenery's the same on every road Work away until the candle goes out Earphones on to escape the city crowds

The train back home again Passing through a tunnel Hear the sound that sustains Meaningless and dull I close my eyelids Lift a hand, touch my face Feel the ground at my feet Melting in a haze This is my dream of falling Where everything subsides The dimming lights so far above This is my dream of sinking Where nothing ever shines I'm lost inside a void Floating down the river Calling out with my voice Hear but a whisper I close my eyelids Lift a hand, touch my face Feel the ground at my feet Melting in a haze Hearing, touching, feeling Sea of consciousness swallows me

Dear Sister 04:37
Dear sister, how do you do today? These days, the sky is grey Fallen, the leaves laying on the road The autumn wind so cold When night comes, I see a shadow from the past The streetlights dim The playground forlorn My footsteps echo alone Dear sister, my eyes are deceiving me A feather by the tree Silence, a leaf falling down so slow Into the night I go Dear sister, ten years have flown away But I'm still there that day...

The Search 04:12
A tiny shadow is running into the woods The path unfolding is swallowed by the dark Hallucinating thoughts race as I stood Looking behind me, but there's no going back

Film 04:43
Wind blowing past my shoulder Cold like the past December Finding the things fallen away from me Stories when we were younger Gone like a dream of summer Chasing the shadow of a vanishing hope Run far away from the years without the sun Inside of this illusion, I can find you Let it go before it all comes crashing down Far away, the time when we would play Far away, the days when you'd sing The wind is howling, my voice cannot reach "Goodbye," your lips say Is it time to give up what we had? Longing for all things you said Memories of you are fading in my mind The light getting further away My path leading further astray Throwing the map that I once used to know Dear sister, the film of our life Passes by at the speed of light So stay with me before it all comes down again

Amaryllis 13:27
In a universe where everything is possible Would we be swimming in the sky Among the stars And fly away Fly away Blinding darkness, fading light Moving umbra, silent flight Phantom footsteps echo between the trees Eyes watching from afar The leaves on the ground have long dried out Sea of consciousness devours me A tiny shadow is running into the woods The path unfolding is swallowed by the dark Hallucinating thoughts race as I stood Looking behind me, but there's no going back Alone in this field you stand The sky stretches on to infinity The flowers dancing in the moonlight And they float in the air, carry your scent to me

Maple leaves casting a shade upon our faces The sun on your hand Looking at the book you read Filled with the stories of a faraway land Afternoon breeze flowing by, touching the flowers They sway on the grass Flying high above the sky, leaving behind the place they once were The swallows go past Four o'clock, time has stopped For now, with just the two of us Under this tree, blissfully In peace, secret playground But time has passed, the place we knew So close to heart, now overgrown And time will pass, the place we knew So close to heart, now overgrown Hear what I have to say when the time has come With all the things that we've been through all those years Shoot for the moon, and fall into space Winter is long here on Earth... Leave me behind, but don't leave it all The sun will rise over the shore Lay down your head, and dream of the day Our flowers would bloom in the rain Shoot for the moon, and fall into space Winter is long here on Earth Somewhere out there, a distance away Playing the song of rebirth
