Moon 04:33
Will you be my moon If I'll be your sea And pull me to you When the light leaves? Just follow the Son He'll lead you to me And all will be right So sleep Well these burning stars Could be worlds as great as ours And we may be lost In infinity But can you believe That in the endless stretches of eternity Your heart should beat For you and me Will you be my wind If I'll be your trees And whisper your secrets To me? I've followed the sun And scaled soaring peaks But nothing compares To your breath on my cheek Well these burning stars Could be worlds as great as ours And we may be lost In infinity But can you believe That in the endless stretches of eternity Your heart should beat For you and me

Stormclouds 04:47
Summer nights in fall Red light in gray All refracted towards A reckoning day Old songs in walls Let me be for now Where you are tonight And never be found We were meant to Never forget this moment New days undone Suddenly it seems All the wreckage of Our innocent dreams Comes crashing down In memories that rise From the echoes of A lowercase cry We were meant to From a harbor turned to home From a silence turned to stone Never forget this moment We were meant to From our laughter turned to light From a melody turned to might See the tops of stormclouds

Aurora 05:04
The bluebird Of the gray skies Sings an old song Of a sunrise A great spoon Of fire lifted from the sea And the branches All about him Tap an old tune Of a mountain The moonlight A whisper upon her cheek Now I sit And remember On a cold night In December When I saw The sun sink beneath the sky But I've seen The light in between her eyes
4.
I am a sailor Charting a world of blue And churning the secrets That pulled me away from you Under a red sky Bleeding into the hues Of every sunrise My heartache starts anew I sing with the sirens In harmony ebbed and cold And bend the horizon To slow the night's enfold Under the starlight Darkness will seek her toll But she'll search relentlessly For there's nothing left of me But you (Our breaths in synchrony The waves a static symphony Oh, now, fall slowly into me My love, I'll be your reverie) The waves drum the shoreline Into these empty hands Until they turn my Heart of stone to sand

Kairos 04:30
I speak in sad songs 'cause I don't know how To tell you that I'm so afraid Afraid that redemption is weighing me down And turning my golden to gray Time passes through me with nothing to show I've wasted it all in a dream So here I awaken to nothing but woe And laden with gravity And if I fall apart Whenever I follow my heart What can I say? For I stand between The man that I know I could be And all his mistakes So for now I lay in wait For you I'd speak in silence but I don't know how And honestly I'm terrified You see it's perfection that's wearing me out And I don't know how long I'll survive Oh, somewhere between this sorrow you'll see A trace of the boy that you knew The ruins of me left scattered at sea Making their way beyond the moon And if I fall apart Whenever I follow my heart What can I say? For I stand between A minefield of my memories And all of my pain So for now I lay in wait Yeah for now I'll lay in wait I was born to fly away With you
