Brace for the dawn, grey winter will end.
For spring, too, must come, with the sun in it's wings.
Close your eyes and picture the sun.
Remember a world bursting with light.
Reach ashen limbs to the blossoming sky,
for winter will end, surrendered to light.
Morning sun come bright as we rise.
Blinding light come cover your eyes.

I can feel your heart is pounding
As these graves run deep surrounding
Can you feel the earth is shaking?
Do you feel that things are changing?
Blood runs thin now walls are cracking
Demons dance when no one’s watching
Can you see the mask is breaking?
Do you feel that things are changing?
Thunder cracking ashes falling
Engines failing spirits calling
As the sun falls light descending
Do you feel that things are changing?

You're already gone, far away.
So why should we bother pining for what might have been?
We don't need a reason to stay here.

Converge

Our fingers clasped as you left this world
Releasing breath and thoughts unheard
The void you left created more
No reason to fret it did not hurt
But one day you will return in rain,
and one day you will converge with me.
As tears fell they warmed the sides of our cheeks
With beeping drums of your life machines
Displaying words you could not speak
Your eyes they closed so slowly
But one day you will return in rain,
and one day you will converge with me.
As dusk fell the air felt warm and bleak
A hazy fog to rest our feet
As change rippled through our family
New life was given we could not see.

Crystalline

I don't have a crystal ball but if I did it wouldn't tell the future.
But I'd have a fistful of sloppy notes from studying the past in the crystal.
I'd see us in there trying not to break because we believed the lore
that taught us we were fragile things, as if we didn't have a core.
I'd see us in there shattering, glass bark ground to powder,
cold air hits the heartwood and the sap flows,
wants to stick it back together.
Crystalline trees, songs fall like leaves,
and I never knew you until your roots were under my boots.
That bumpy bark reflecting my thousand eyes reflecting
that I never knew you until the heartwood and sap shown through.
But that took a break in that cloudy crystal skin,
and it takes us breaking until we see we do grow again.
And this grove is quaking aspen shimmering and shaking
with the music we're making, hearts fluttering and breaking.
Faking a million smiles I tried shaking you awake.
Flaking a million times and making sad mistakes.
Hurting so casually you were flirting with the pain.
Learning nothing from it and so it was all in vain.

Come back Katy
Come back safely
We know the way our blood flows
We know the way back home
I’ve seen his face around here
In cottonwood and deer hair
It lingers in the cold
but anger will not freeze us
It’s stronger than our words
They only bind and chain us.
We know the way back home
We know the way our hearts grow

Midnight Sun

Here's to all that you can see
from the furthest edge of things.
The places we crawl
to try to find our wings.
I'm drunk on the stars
only deserts can see.
And I just wish that you
could share this loneliness with me.

Occasionally you come across an album that really resonates with you and this is definitely one for me. Every song on here is full of such ethereal melancholy and beauty. Fast becoming a favourite of mine.
