From here into beyond From my voice up to the skies Through my body a source of light Through my body a portal to the stars I send my plea into the skies I send my prayer to the Light Embody Embody Embody… I am he.

Samsāra 05:11
lyrics

Your heart is beating fast as it races Through the darkness beneath the starlit sky I feel your presence burning deep inside my soul I feel your body as it starts to crumble Oh… It feels like Samsara Oh… It feels like Samsara Your hands look for the Light as they navigate Through rivers of emotion from life to life You keep on moving through the room as we embrace You keep on wondering if we have ever met Oh… It feels like Samsara Oh… It feels like Samsara Oh, don’t despair, you’ll find your answer Hidden in the depths of your heart Oh, keep on dancing, hold me closer Give yourself to me… Oh, give yourself to me! Oh… It feels like Samsara Oh… It feels like Samsara

Share, explore, protect, project… Share (share the living feeling of awareness) Explore (all the living things in their expression) Protect (all that matters to you, all that matters to me) Project (who you really are inside) I think I might… Oh… Adi Shakti Namo Namo Oh… Adi Shakti Namo Namo (REPEAT) Adi Shakti, Adi Shakti, Adi Shakti, Namo Namo… Sarab Shakti, Sarab Shakti, Sarab Shakti, Namo Namo… I bow to you, recognize me in you…

Sever My Chains 03:35
lyrics
buy track
Will you hear my plea? Will you hear my words? If I send them on the wind Will they reach you too? Back then it was so natural I was like a child discovering it all The still unknown whispers The grandest outcries But with time it’s lost its charm My back’s grown tired of the burden And my eyes still look up My soul wants to join the eagles in flight So I stand up and sever all my chains Even if I bleed, even if I want to cry I sever all the chains tying me to the ground And regain my former strength Yet as I spread my wings, I ask myself Will you hear my plea? Will you hear my words? If I send them on the wind Will they reach you too? Your answer might come my way The very minute that I blossom

Double Sun 06:02
lyrics
buy track
Tear the flesh apart See my beating heart Tired and weary of the burden A source of light left exhausted… I sit in the middle of the desert Feel the fury of the winds Feel the sand under my feet I want the world to vanish… Double Sun, Double Sun Burn it all away… Double Sun, with your fire Help me conquer silence… I’ll withstand the heat I’ll have loneliness over uselessness I can’t deny the hatred that I bear I would be denying half of who I am… My light fades, my smile weakens Burn it all away, Double Sun! I burn with rage and weep for the planet My burden is one no one can lift It’s the price to pay for every heartbeat Until my life is extinguished…

Firebird 05:42
lyrics
buy track
If my voice could cross the oceans, we’d never be apart If my thoughts could change time, you’d be mine by now But as much as I would love to, I can’t surpass myself I’m still stuck in the mortal bit, you see If I could disappear, I would be hugging you If I could have my way, you’d be mine by now We have the key to each other’s heart Will it rust if we don’t use it? I will put one foot forward, take a first step And from the ashes rise like a firebird I’ll find out who I am, stand up And rise like a firebird, rise like a firebird If it were for me, what wouldn’t I erase? If I were in charge, what wouldn’t I change? But it’s not in my power So I settle for crying… If my voice could cross the oceans, you’d be mine If I could transcend time, I’d be yours by now We say the words to overthrow each other Will they burn our throats if left unsaid? [REPEAT CHORUS] If my voice could cross the oceans, we’d never be apart…

Waiting 02:50
lyrics
buy track
There must be way more to expect Way more things to crave As I take a step forward I discover and feel complete For something else is waiting… Blindfold your eyes and walk in the dark You’ll find the light As I strive to get my compass to work I feel complete For something else is waiting… You’ll never find it Live and die empty and miserable Excuse me if I isolate you It’s my only chance to soar Sometimes it only takes a glance To discover what you miss Sometimes it takes putting down the glass To finally be able to see Something else is waiting… Something else is waiting… for me!

Holy Light 03:59
lyrics
buy track
I’ve got a perfect way to handle this Got it written inside of my DNA I’ve got a perfect way to handle life Sit back and enjoy your flight Royal light, perfect light, holy light Given to me from the start as my birthright Bitter tears from the highest of heights Royal jewel of the holy crown I am… I’m guarded by the holy light! I want… I want to be a holy light! I am… I’m guarded by the holy light! I want… I want to be a holy light! I’ve got some theories to back me up Pulsations hidden in the depths of my beating heart I walk alone, without a guidepost No looking back, I just got to do what feels right Royal light, perfect light, holy light Serving as my only guide in this hidden path Through the spiral and into the sky Care to tell me what this all looks like? I am… I’m guarded by the holy light! I want… I want to be a holy light! I am… I’m guarded by the holy light! I want… I want to be a holy light! Keep it up, keep it up, keep your spirits high Face your fears, wipe your tears, got to shine your light Debes luchar, debes ganar, no te dejes tentar Tienes la sangre santa, tienes la luz… [REPEAT CHORUS]

Nonsensical 03:15
lyrics
buy track
Join the words, join the hearts Let it all be nonsense For in nonsense we are free No chains, no logic, no limits Join the hearts, join the worlds Let it sprout from within May this chain link universes Parallel, nonsensical, endless I am one with space Lights float around me And currents pierce my soul Care to join me? Care to join me? Do you? Do you? Care to join me? Do you care to join me? In this world I am one, I am king Crownless, invisible and yet still present If you measure a man through his strength I am then immeasurable, immeasurable Care to join me? Care to join me? Do you? Do you? Care to join me? Do you care to join me? Should you ever find an answer, discard it Nothing will bind you more to decadence Than immutable self-constructed truth Self constructed truth… truth! Nonsensical!

Insectoid 04:45
lyrics

Unplugging cables from my spine Loading happiness in a program I create a prison of love A cocoon for my insect form This larva will grow! This larva will grow! Numbing my senses at once A technofluid brings slumber I heal my wounds as I go Leave my scars just for show I will transform! I will transform! Metamorph your way through Ugly words are a bane to be avoided With the venom from my stinger I’ll kill all opposing thoughts This larva will grow! This larva will grow! Grow… Grow…

One Of Those Days 02:35
lyrics

It’s one of those days When words won’t come out One of those days When walls are built around me My face is blank, my will is missing I stand alone right in the middle The world moves but I don’t I stay still Words are said but I don’t hear them Things are asked but I don’t do them I’ve got no will, I’ve got no light I’m all alone in the dark It’s one of those days When words won’t come out Just one of those days Tomorrow it’ll all feel far away…

Into the Edge 04:05
lyrics

My walls are crumbling This palace is shaking My very foundations are trembling I see… I see myself praying Put a stop to this pain Stop running and wait Introduce a bit of order Fly away from death, so somber Plug in some happiness Plug in some order I want to be righteous Pure and perfect Put a stop to this pain Stop running and wait Introduce a bit of order Fly away from death, so somber Into the edge! Into the edge! Into the edge!

Time has come for words to be said Empty my chest and tell you what’s on my mind From my chest into yours… Share with me the last step on the road
