HEART OF A GUN And the heart of a gun is bleeding In another firing In a hole as deep I’m seeing All the dark of fire See the willow tree is shining In the world that we create And the beat of the drums I’m feeling As the blood of the rain There’s no time left to heal my creeping There’s no time to advise my seeding There’s no time for heat to burn out There’s no time to aside my breeding In the mist of dawn I’m leaving And I’m going to change my name now And the soul of the poor is going to fade out Heaven as wide is waiting When I take it inside When I break within When I rake this thin line Then I think I know When I take it inside Every time I feel When I hear this lost cry Then I take it in When I take it inside Every time I feel When I hear this lost cry A restless tear has gone by When I take it inside When I break within When I rake this thin line Every night I every night I … And the heart of a gun is bleeding In another firing In a hole as deep I’m seeing All the dark of fire When the flame just as weak is growing On the road to sweet pain There’s no time to hide, I’m saying And I know what I feel

Into Black 05:26
INTO BLACK There’s a song in my head Turns this blue into black There’s a dream in my head There’s a shadow never fading There’s a wish I will ride on And a hundred times I’m begging There’s a song in my head Turns this blue into black There’s a dream in this head There’s a wish fulfilled with shadows A day in this summer A day in my life A day in this heat and Whispering cries under wishful skies A day in this summer A day in my life A day in this heat and Whispering lies under blissful skies There’s a wish in my mind There’s a cold and sacrificing wound And a hundred times I see And a hundred times I beg for you Bring your tears out Bring your tears out In the promise of your shelter In the promise of your love In the promise of all In the promise of your shelter In the promise of your love In the promise of you Every night I’m burning Every night I’m turning Every time I … Bring your tears out Bring your tears out Bring your tears out Bring your tears out

Narcissus 04:11
NARCISSUS In this mirror I see with my common eye In this face is nothing left to blind Here you are calling out in vain And I know every time you know How pretty you are How gentle you are In this mirror I see it’s another time And I’ll go to cover the feeding eye Hear you are figure out in vain And I know every time you know How pretty you are How gentle you are How pretty you are How gentle you are And the wild is full of weakness And the time is here to say That our love is coming all right And I am waiting to fall in you And the wild is full of weakness And the time is here to say And our love is coming all right And I am waiting to fall in you In this mirror I see with my common eye In this face is nothing left to blind Here you are calling out in vain And I know all the words that lovers say In this mirror I see it’s another time And I’ll go to cover the feeding eye Here you’re calling out in vain And I know every time you know How pretty you are How gentle you are How pretty you are How gentle you are And the wild is full of weakness And the time is here to say That our love is coming all right And I am waiting to fall in you How pretty you are How pretty you are Moving down all the walls now Every every trouble wild How many spoken words are Somewhere behind the light Somewhere behind all sights Somewhere between the unspoken Somewhere behind the stars The shine is going by How pretty you are How gentle you are How pretty you are How gentle you are And the wild is full of weakness And the time is here to say That our love is coming all right And I am waiting to fall in you And the wild is full of weakness And the time is here to say That our love is coming all right And I am waiting to fall in you How pretty you are How gentle you are How pretty you are How gentle you are

Simple Death 04:48
SIMPLE DEATH Look at this king in his king’s life And all these counsellors in their counsellor’s world Conquest of insane Will never see what I can see And all the saints are on wings high Look at the emperor, hear the emperor’s word Conquest of lost prayers But I can see what he can’t see Down in the yard new young flowers die Down in the gloom and they weep And all these said to be dead yet come in They don’t feel any fear Every gate seems to close Every gate of hell Every creed cremates Every creed cremates Every gate seems to close Every gate of hell Every creed cremates Every creed cremates

Tell Me Why 04:30
TELL ME WHY And we’re running out of real time And we’re coming in a white boat Steering course to the Dreamland A drunken isle on the sea Tell my why Tell me why When our eyes are wounded When our hearts are unsure When the moon is hiding And a rook is dying Tell me why Tell me why When the guns are shouting When the cries come to choir When a dove is flying When the tide is here Tell me why Tell me why When the end is coming When the clouds are running When the sea is biting When the storm is rising Tell me why Tell me why When the stars are fading When black is burning When a leaf is falling When the tide is here Tell me why Tell me why I hear you all I see your fall I see you all I hear your call To echo down the ages To echo down the ages And we’re running out of real time And we’re coming in a white boat Steering course to the Dreamland A drunken isle on the sea Tell my why Tell me why

WISHFUL PROMISE Where’s the time we used to live in Where’s the time our dreams are made o Where’s the night, the secrets to admire The light we see forever Where’s the time we read the timeline Where’s the haze of your coming Where’s the love and the secret And I’m out of hail of hating me Remember me Remember me Where’s the time we used to live in Where’s the time our hopes are made on Where’s the night, the secrets to admire The faith we keep forever Where’s the time we feed the timeline Where’s the grace of your coming Where’s the love and the secret Where’s the love and the secret Where’s the time you’ve promised Where’s the time you give Where’s the time you’ve promised Where’s the time you give Where’s the time we used to live in Where’s the time our wish is made on Where’s the night, the secrets to admire The sad we feel forever Where’s the shine to darken our seeing And the die is cast Remember me Remember me Where’s the time you’ve promised Where’s the time you give Where’s the time you’ve promised Where’s the time you give Where’s the time you’ve promised Where’s the time you give Where’s the time you’ve promised Where’s the time you give Remember me Remember me Remember me Remember me
