LYRICS:
"Adrift" - 0:00:00
You have touched my heart and warmed my soul
You have felt my scars and stilled my woes
Stay a while longer, why leave so soon
Goodbye lover, I will never forget you
Adrift in this ocean of consequence
The years of devotion have come to this
Look back for a moment in vain
Submerge with the burden and blame
"Something Like Serenity" - 0:05:09
In this desperate hour, all hope has forsaken me
The light is quietly fading out, as malice wells up from underneath
Writhes across my skin, blankets me with bane
It seeps through every pore, and gnaws into my veins
Defiles everything with its vexing shards
It saturates my core and desecrates my heart
The looming walls surround, with nothing useful between
In my abandoned shell, my resignation blooms from the seed
The talons draw me down into the depths eternally
The vital thread unbound, as it severs from the seams
The final breath is long as life departs from me
I have finally found something like serenity
"With You in Time" - 0:12:25
Rainfall upon the sea
The break of dawn over the trees
Days, they go by like dreams
Graceful, gradually
Fate brought us to be
Lay warm, never leave
How your eyes bare your soul
Mesmerized and aglow
With you in time and the unknown
We are alive, we are home
"You Are the Cosmos" - 0:17:15
(Instrumental)
"Shelter" - 0:20:32
Lose hold on the reprieve
The shelter of dreams lifted from me
Awake, lifeless and weak, as night falls asleep again
I had believed in something different from what has been
"In Purity" - 0:25:04
I saw your smile, I saw your gleam
Things were so wild, yet so serene
We watched the skies move aimlessly
Opened our minds and wandered free, in purity
Life's been unkind to you and me
We gave our light in times of need
In the wake of brokenness, we found our way
We've found our purpose, but remember babe, those days will come again
Sorrow and pain will reappear
We will remain over the years
When all seems gone, I will be near
Just hold on, we will persevere
"Years of Solitude" - 0:32:50
(Instrumental)
"The Wildering Stones" - 0:37:12
This is where I'll die, I feel it in my bones
There's nothing left inside, it left me long ago
I wither in the blight as the shadows grow
This shallow grave of mine by the wildering stones
