I bring a secret that you don't want to hear
I bring the news from the other side
Know this: Our mother is our killer!
Our Creator is our destroyer!

3. Claim Nothing As Thine Own
A way can be a guide
But not a constant path
Our future is shorter than our past
Nothing: got to fill the gap with something
Nothing: got to fill the gap with anything
No one: got to fill the gap with someone
No one: got to fill the gap with anyone
Claim nothing as thine own
I... I... I renounce it
And I... I... I renounce it
And I... (c'mon)
Claim nothing as thine own
This city is killing me
I hate it here
Claim nothing
I... I... I renounce it
And I... I... I renounce it
And I...
A way has been a guide
But not a constant path
One day I will return
4. Augustine
Steam, so crystalline
Wordless, nameless
It's not nearly enough
It's clearly not enough
Augustine revealed the mind of God
Hume killed Him stone dead
Wordless, nameless
It's not nearly enough
It's clearly not enough
The eternal formless
It's not nearly enough
It's clearly not enough
There are things that can be seen,
But cannot be said
Augustine
Silence, stillness
I feel it wash over me, spirit pustule
Cleanse my blemish
I feel it wash over me, spirit pustule
Mend my flesh
Gandhema
Nidhema
I am not worthy to recieve you
But only say the word and I shall be healed
And I shall - and I shall be healed
5. Cape Wrath
Both at last shall reach the sea
Both setting out for the last time
See white death dancing on the shore
I don't know what I'll find
But I know what I'm leaving behind
(X2)
It ends here on the coast
It's over now for another year
Cape Wrath.
6. Escape Is Not Freedom
Escape is not freedom: face the bitter cold, wastrel
Dull urbanity, why?
Escape is not freedom: lower your eyes, stargazer
We give birth and we take death
And when we're born, we're not born into the world
We'r born out of it
And when we die, we don't die out of the world
We die into it
The great chain of being continues
If you will it, it is no dream
We are the dreamers: and we are the dreamers
Of dreams
Sentimentality kills the moment
You must harvest the fruits of the present
There's not a second to lose
Not a second, there's not a second to lose
So move! Now! Now! Now or never!
Fucking move! Now! Now! Now or never!
Urbane dullard, why?
Apathy descending leads to darkness accumulating
Apathy descending: darkness accumulating
But it's not over...
