4. Call off the Search
5. The Year of the Bastard
6. Young
7. Black Stars over Glasgow
8. Appearance







1. Disappearance

Washing out
Falling away

Vita, you're leaving
Like the setting sun, you're leaving us

Vita, you're leaving us

Vita, you're nowhere
Vita, you're everywhere




2. Aubade

I know your heart lies heavy tonight
Sleepwalking all day but restless by twilight

You're surrounded by these artifacts
This useless collection of consumer consolation prizes

Crippled by aversion
Bathed in the glow of 24 hour addictivision
Suffering at dusk, the leisure time of a wage slave husk

Peaceless hibernation in the city of Glasgow
Peaceless hibernation in the city of lost adults

Darkness is just the absence of light

This is our dawn song
This is soul music

Aubade
These words are swords
Embrace the light
Cost off dead skin and live free
Aubade
Definitely swords
Declare an end to old ways with the dying of the night
Embrace the light

Aubade

Again and again and again we awaken
Again and again and again we rise

The sun will rise
Must cleanse this filth within

Aubade
Embrace the light

Your death is your life
Your emancipation
Aubade

New life springs from dreams at daybreak
Then the burning sun blinds us into sight
I know because I've seen it with my own eyes
I'm the Witness




3. Out of Harm's Way

An endless harvest colours the horizon
Clutching soil like silver
Void streams flow through

Roads lead to anger
Where rusted salvage anchors
There's no grace like in these heirlooms
Just exhaustion like water

Even only circles for years
The cruel sea claim vainglorious seeds

Shades of loss saturate
Tones of sin celebrate

Black flowers for miles
Cracked fields of dust
But I trust in the coming rains

Out of harm's way




4. Call off the Search

Perhaps it's time to call off the search
I think it's time to come to rest

Call off the search
Come to rest

The search goes on
Into the shadows
There is no guide
Only the dark

Call off the search
Come to rest

There's nothing to look for
There's nothing to find

Lie awake at night then
Always already
No one can help you now
Cutting air into shreds
Russian doll syndrome
Piecing together the forever complete

Call off the search
There's nothing more to look for




5. The Year of the Bastard

Egotism fills the room: the fix is in
An ode to vanity: all is surface
Let the dead bury the dead: Deus Caritas Est

Born as a sacrifice, but I will kill all violence

Redemption comes to me on wings of fire
Like a pierced soul, I bleed into the sky

The year of the bastard




6. Young

Emptiness is form

The lines have yet to fill your face
But your time is still being taken away

I'm leaving now
Crawling north where it's cold and green

I'm leaving now
Going to see sights unseen

We are young, but not for long

Absentee, your silence has been noticed

With an open wound and bright hope
May swords of hatred fall from our hands

With an open wound and bright hope
May we forgive a thousand times




7. Black Stars over Glasgow

Forced growth, pulling down

Ghosts stalk these streets of our past

Been seeing signs of the end times

This place brought us together
This place could tear us apart

I'm late, you're elsewhere
Distance needs persistance

It's not worth waiting

The question is time, time out of balance
In facing death, we embrace life
The question is time, time out of balance
The time is now, I'm not waiting to die

It's not worth waiting

Chance, happenstance
We must prevail
Every moment, every locus
We must prevail

Time
Time dies

Black Stars over Glasgow
Black Stars over Falkirk
Black Stars




8. Appearance

Suffering lately
You've been suffering lately I've seen

Wandering lately
Your mind's been wandering lately I've seen

But it's not over...
