			Windwards (digital)

1. Windwards

The fire seemed forgotten
Though embers always glowed
As winds sang my name
I’ve always felt I had to go

Where elders walked before me
Beyond the realm of snow
To a place my heart is longing
I was born a windward soul

Beyond lands of shadows
To where the rivers meet raging seas
Beyond the trees and meadows
The vast has called for me

Windward spirit
Imperial state of mind
The wayward walker
Leaving the grasp of time

Windward spirits
Above the seas and fields
The wayward walkers
Ferocious we leave

Wanderlust
Waywards, windwards
Forever onwards

To leave what’s familiar
Where dust has set on idle stone
Go and find your ocean
In the black unknown

Windward spirit
Imperial state of mind
The wayward walker
Leaving the grasp of time

Windward spirits
Above the seas and fields
The wayward walkers
Ferocious we leave

Come feel what they couldn’t feel
And see what they couldn’t see
Old truths are only beliefs
Become what they could never be

So rise from every fall
Facing the wind, my wayward one
Be true, scarred and strong
I know your journey’s just begun

My windward one


2. Sculptors and Spectres

I have wandered where old eyes can’t see
Where great thunder is rolling in from the north
A ghost town along the unknown
An endless processions in a desert of snow

Dare the night to claim and reap the day

Beauty concealed in nothing
Beyond the perfection
The night stars shall be your crown

In the eyes of a dying god
Slain by your hand, the moment before his fall

Divine aegis are shackles
Ungodly the weapon of thought

See your true soul reflected
What you’ve become
And why you must always go on

The enigma of alpha omega
To hunger for more, for nothing, and for all
The grave a solemn promise to the unliving
Onward pursuit towards a grander state
To some a curse, to some a better fate

Come bend the wind to your will now
Come sculptor the future and fate of your days
Come rise above all the bleak souls
Come light up the beacon and lead your own way

Dare the night to claim and reap the day

In the eyes of a dying god
Slain by your hand, the moment before his fall

Divine aegis are shackles
Ungodly the weapon of thought

See your true soul reflected
What you’ve become and why you must always go on
