Kaleidoscopes Part I - Grounded Names 07:47
lyrics
Names in dust to grounded stones Faces imprinted nowhere now The ache, the haunting scent of life Beat the sodden earth with fists for The good it will not do below Void of all, lo salvation’s price Screaming. Unlife. Unleashed. Without. Anguish born from vacancy Desiccant winds howl through the barren lots Redemption to be found in Corrupted eyes lining crumbling tombs Maelstrom fury breaks the world As the souls within will twist across the time Life’s finale’s throbbing dance Vistas writhe in black apocalypse Falling from the heights unknown Plummeting from the teeth of an ending world Close your eyes and scream into The belly of oblivion High above the world’s demise The sky’s malicious exaltation Cavorts through scorchéd summits and Conducts the world in desolation Second dawn Gives way to more Impossible Open eyes once more Clarity obscured before The dancing glimmer of tunnel’s dwindling end Dims into infinity Hold steady between these eyes of mine Synaptic collapse The neurons burn Grey matter dissolved Yet everything is stitched alive No desire to see Think, feel or taste Never atrophied The plight of one ignored Return thoughts to hope Where hope did end Liquid death again Back into Poseidon’s arms Waterlogged graves Unaligned now Rise from the depths Through the ages holding silent Watch as humankind performs its best to end The great creators foresaw eternity Dancing in their perfect cosmos Yet in the end they raised their arms And tore themselves apart -- A mockery of their greatness In one fell swoop unthinking progeny Of hubristic minds and shallow lives The mortal spine of creation Splintered in their hands, so abhorrent They never stopped to hear the laughing skies

Kaleidoscopes Part II - Terra Release 08:19
lyrics
The mortal trepidation Of falling too far short Could never meet the sorrows Of living far beyond Whisper in the final days To try to reach the dying race Never heard by those whose lives Shall be the last of those in line The ghost of one last lesson learned Shall never be among them -- Wander through the desolate Fields in isolation The only spectre of the greatest Moment in their history In reflection, commune with none A barren world without a care The earth lives out its lonely life Its sole inhabitant breathing deep The dust that lines the empty roads And the ash that’s falling from the skies Feel the blood boil Blistering skin Watch as the oceans Soar into the sky Surface ripped apart All is liquefied -- Flesh is torn from mind Ridden of the shell Essence wanders free Witness Terra mors -- Celestial Ordination

Kaleidoscopes Part III - Drift Eternal 09:20
lyrics
Screaming. Unlife. Released. Within. The atmosphere disintegrates And that which we could never conquer Comes crashing to its knees Conflagration of the past The remnants are consumed The source of all our livelihoods Unending in its hunger The legacy of our great race Now not a speck to mar the stars -- A hundred thousand different lights Will tell the stories and Dance eternal through the dark To weave the magic of the stars The universe their tapestry -- Lifeless entities will sing Through luminous displays Kaleidoscopes of colour now Become a new dimension Resign into a new suffusion The tapestry complete
