The Rabbit Hole
04:18
|
|||
|
Down, we go
All roads from here lead to our new home
Falling down the rabbit hole...
Ripping through the veil
Ascension of the chosen ones
Evolution of mind and spirit
Down into a world
A world where down is up
Like falling through Mother Earth
Things look so different from here
Things look so different from here...
What are your perceptions?
Have they been tested?
We're falling down the rabbit hole...
All signs point to Awakening;
This was our destiny
Lean forward, lean into it...
Lean in, lean in, lean into it!
Things look so different from here
Things look so different from here...
What are your perceptions?
Have they been tested?
We're falling down the rabbit hole...
All signs point to Awakening;
This was our destiny
Lean forward—lean into it
Lean in! Lean in! Lean into it!

Stargazer Syndrome
03:33
|
|||
|
Human condition and existential enigma
lead always back to the stars;
it's believed the matter from which we came will reveal everything
Years: thousands... victims: billions... starstruck—lost in thought
Beyond Earth's atmosphere lies our obsession
As you stare up, into our deadly universe
that masquerades as an entity of sinless beauty,
ever wonder how those trillions of stars always send your mind astray?
'Cause out there exist celestial bodies of death;
atoms fuse and rip apart
Gaze long enough,
then, as your thought exceeds the beauty of the stars,
in sets stargazer syndrome
The stars prepare to ravish your brain
as the star-sirens sing
The star-sirens promise answers humanity dies to know
and summon your brain to venture to space
When it's within reach, the stars pierce your brain;
Ego-feast—they dine on your admiration
As you ruminate
on the wonders and mysteries of the universe,
thousands of stars cannonball into the mental reservoir;
Nowhere for the rising seas to go—overflow
Scrutinizing the majesty beyond the sky
looking for answers, but you're looking at lies
If you flirt with the sirens, you fall to the syndrome.

Relentless
03:23
|
|||
|
Army of darkness
Rolling waves
Like a black sea of emptiness
as far as the eye can see
dressing half the world in her misery
Send the wraiths of light!
Push back eternal night
A shell filled with dejection
whistles down from a dark-choked sky
A flash and then it all goes black...
Feel the rain falling; we're still here — still breathing!
It will take more than an army
Again, we rise
I've seen sadness
I've seen sorrow
at oceanic depths
We emerge from waters below,
walking with our loved ones' ghosts
Breaking the boundaries
Lunacy's found me
But I control the battery
I've seen the crushing depths
To there, is where you'll be sent
Lend yourself not to the abyss;
though it may stare, and you stare back,
it cannot steal you from this world without your hand
If it is relentless, then so shall I be
If it is relentless, then so shall I be
We've turned the tide
Nowhere for a legion to hide
Darkness snuffed by light
Night yields to a collective heart
a heart of a thousand suns
Gathered round,
a glance down the line
elicits a sense of pride
For those of us still fighting
Watch over us
We’ll meet again,
but not yet… not yet...
In this moment of silence,
we will always honor your memories
I've seen sadness
I've seen sorrow
at oceanic depths
We emerge from waters below,
walking with our loved ones' ghosts

Finish the Nightmare
03:40
|
|||
|
Eyes slam open—premature awakening
Cliffhanging bed of sweat-drenched sheets teeters at the edge
Curiosity could kill if it were reality
but inherent protection from death beckons re-entry
Back into bed to tip it over the cliff
plunging body and bed back into the seas of sleep
Back into the nightmare
Back into the horror
Cannot resist—must see where it leads
Back into sleep—time to finish the nightmare
Finish the nightmare
Learning to love fighting nightmares as they come
Learning to love all the nightmares as they come
For every dream to be lived, there are nightmares to be paid
For every dream to be lived, there are nightmares to be paid
Personal, mental simulation, as if burned into film
in the leading part of a horror story...
—Back into bed to tip it over the cliff
plunging body and bed back into the seas of sleep
Back into the nightmare...
Back into the horror...
Learning to love fighting nightmares as they come
Learning to love all the nightmares as they come
Never want to live someone else's life
Never want to live someone else's lie...

Alteration
03:33
|
|||
|
Let me free!
I've been there before; I can go back again
Where the mind goes, the spirit follows
Low vibrations
Undergoing alteration
Resonation
A door once opened by forces unknown
Where mystery was, understanding now grows
A new light shone upon the same key,
rediscovered after a sojourn in darkness
I found me, recreated
I found me, recreated
Flying away... Flying away...
Flying away
Flying away
I stand before myself
Looking into the mirror, dark
Undoing years of harm
Looking into the mirror... the mirror, dark...
I dove into its darkest depths, and swam my soul out to the sky

Begin the Dream
03:20
|
|||
|
Life is but a dream
Perplexed at the end,
wondering where it all went
So much time spent unawakened
Why not bat eyes at Death?
Dreams live, dreams die
The dead leave all but the soul behind
Sleep just enough to dream,
but remain awakened to achieve
Resonate at the right frequencies
to be ready to live the dream
Falling... falling...
Falling faster, now,
falling further down,
falling faster into sleep
Falling... falling...
Falling faster, now,
falling further down,
falling faster into sleep
The dead don't dream
And we're not dead yet—don't forget that
Many things we will have to endure
to live the life we were meant for
Fear, unfed, is powerless
Life without dreams is a nightmare
You're now along with us for the ride
Forward now, and listen tight...

Purpose
03:22
|
|||
|
As we watch the seasons pass,
to remain the same is to die inside;
growth and change are part of our DNA
Seeking purpose, beneath the surface
Reaching deep within
Oh how far we've come...
So much time spent asleep
I shook my soul awake
I pulled on its arm till it stirred and rose
"I know you're tired, but we have to go.
We have a purpose you now know.
Bring life to a dream:
"Uplift and awaken the world"
We've found purpose, beneath the surface
Reaching deep within
Oh how far we've come...
(Indigo child)
We all seek what makes us feel alive...
what makes us feel alive
I won't stop diving till I reach the bottom of me (indigo)
We found purpose beneath the surface
Awakened a ghost in the matrix
One foot in this world, one foot in another…
(Indigo child)

Osmosis
04:05
|
|||
|
All we are, and all that is...
Matter, molecules, and particles...
Everything is chemistry
Everything is energy
Osmosis
The energy around us passes through
It permeates our cells
causing shifts in frequencies
Mixing, merging
Mixing, merging
Solution of anatomy and energy
Solvent dissolves solute
Body — Mind — Soul
Graduation of energy unfolds
through protective membranes
Mindful of what we allow
The energy around us passes through
It permeates our minds
affecting thoughts and feelings
Now that we know
It cannot be "unseen"
Paradigm shifts again
Life will never be the same
The energy around us passes through
It permeates our souls;
lifts us to new vibrations
You can find me there...
where new vibes meet the new tide...
where new vibes meet the new tide...
