Holy Voyage

i seek to sail the sea
she whispered to the waters
the waves stood at peace
before the glistening veil
this will eclipse the sun
the temple in her eyes
to drink from the well of salvation
with the ocean as a guide
the bottle breaks on impact
the gulls begin to fly
she begins her maiden voyage
seeking the passage of life
(Protect me) be my shield
(protect me) be my eyes
(protect me) on my way
(protect me) to the kingdom of god
and the rain came from the heavens above
showering all who dwell below
baptized in the tears of angels
out of her heart, the living waters flow
she painted a picture of sin
an ever-flowing stream
lying in the pastures so green
led to the channels so still
the streams run to the sea
and there they flow again
she questions if she had forsaken him
for the storm he brought upon her
(protect me) be my shield
(protect me) by my eyes
and in the distance appeared the land
her voyage nearly absolute
with bleeding hands she moved the sails
and set course for the kingdom
greeted by the light of divine
to stand on the soil of bliss
never faltered on her quest
now bask in the glory of the promised land
and the rain came from the heavens above
showering all who dwell below
baptized in the tears of angels
out of her heart, the living waters flow

The Pilot

Lifted eyes, look past the hills
Coming with the wind in her wings
Soaring between the heavens and earth
Trumpets sound toward the land
as the disciple prepares to land
By grace be upon her, She's reaching home
in your almighty glory, takes us to the ground
patient and gently, safe and sound
these blessed wings will not fail you
by grace be upon her, she's reaching home
as god blows the wind from the west
we're carried through the clouds
weightless in the arms of bliss
she'll guide us home
by grace by upon us all
we're reaching home
held in the arms of angels as we overlook the land
swimming in the lavender skies
painted with the brush of saints
descending from the paradise above
our journeys nearly complete
our faith in the pilot to take us home
safe in earth's embrace
as god blows the wind from the west
we're carried away from the clouds
by grace be upon us all
we're reaching home

Its hanging by a thread and close to boiling over
It's getting near the edge but there's no guarantee
The lines are blurred but you better not cross them
No regard for hypocrisy
No one is satisfied but it was good start
Soon enough you'll earn a pat on the back
Is there a tipping point well I don't wanna know
Keeping composure but my patience is low
So just be quiet 'cause your time has run out
You have no problems so don't say them out loud
Stand and deliver
You knew this was coming
beg for forgiveness
your tyranny has met its end
I make the rules and you'll blindly follow
Dont want the consequences of disobeying
You'll be demonized for ever more
No way to rationalize, it's just reality
I know what's best for you, dont you believe me?
Not like you have a choice anyway
It's a threat to be who you are
Let me mold you into what you should be
Stand and deliver
You knew this was coming
beg for forgiveness
your tyranny has reached its end
Stronger than you all
I'll build it up again
and should i ever fall
i'll surely bring the rain

Relinquish

I spoke to god again today
inquired of his twisted ways
Vices empty savior gone
without heavens healing touch
set the timer once again
maybe this time i'll repent
And so the birds will sing
and calm me with their presence
and so the flowers bloom
to bring a cheerful glimmer
he reminds me that
there's still hope after all
but the joy around me
is killing me the deepest
spoke to god again today
told him of my past mistakes
in a rage of discontent
maybe this time i'll repent
And so the birds will sing
and calm me with their presence
and so the flowers bloom
to bring a cheerful glimmer
he reminds me that
there's still hope after all
but the joy around me
is killing me the deepest
like an ever growing weed
with its bed becoming one
and i will germinate the seed
until the angels blessing comes
stuck beneath these coastal waves
suffocating by the day
hope the angel rears its head
or i'll lie motionless instead
relinquish my body
send me to Eden
spoke to god again today
seems the fear is here to stay

Black Glacier

melting in the lights of the holy
only a heartbeat utters a sound
haunting one thousand times over
Judas reaches out his empty hand
where are the roads to heaven arms?
lord forgive the land
When will the ice fall
as told in prophecy?
land of god has fallen
when will you believe?
Will there be nothing left?
We will all be forgotten?
under control, your souls a slave
thoughts once delivered, scattered around
where are the roads to heavens arms?
