1. Wrists of Kings
Now you're done
Dry walls don't lean
Made from our
History
It bursts for them
Boiling back
Clouds warm the wrists of kings
Your shadow drain them fast
Times unknown
It still goes
Creeping through heaping cracks
Banning with inner love
Chase
Words say it
Now they've found us
Burning light
Sworn I've had enough
Bring them nothing
They have
Made it's way
The nights
2. Not In Rivers, But In Drops
And so you say I'm so
3. Dulcinea
He is not mad
His thought is clearer than
The saner man
For in her he saw
Beauty overflowing
Through the tattered clothes
She was his queen
She is a queen
In dreams he
Wanders the dark
In search of her
4. Over Root and Thorn
Your reign is ever growing
Spreading like a moss
across rock, under sky, over roots and the thorns
your reach is ever growing, spreading like a moss
5. 1000 Shards
If only I could clear my eyes
(I) Made my mind
Made what's falling
Play the game
Oval sun
An oceans
Over jagged shunts [most likely "shards"]
I'm not one
Do slash
Do they slash
Now it's written
6. All Out of Time, All Into Space
7. Holy Tears
He was patient
Slow descent, chills the bones
His wait maybe long
Still he carries on
Always reaching for her
Always breathing for her
Lifting his hand to the sky
Slow change might bring
Holy tears
Upon his battered skull
Holy tears
Holy tears
He won't take the priviledge
To know the crown
8. Firdous E Bareen
9. Garden of Light
I fell asleep in
They were dressed in grey
Only to awaken
