- Track Name: Smoke in the Field
-
I took you out
we went by my parents house
all this to see
I knew then that you loved me
We all laid down
wrapped in blankets on the ground
cotton moonlight
smoke in the field, my passing life
Where did you go?
Did you see me as you flew?
I was angry,
had my doubts love ever existed
And breakfast when it's done
that is when I was young
we're watching westerns on
the tv in the morning
The sheriff's got his man
a gun is in his hand
it's justice, it's a plan
you leave me every morning - Track Name: Bouncing Off the Atmosphere
- instrumental
- Track Name: This One
-
Come and tell me why what I want to hear
is so hard to say. What's in it for you?
Just make the words that I'm looking for
if you can afford and your tongue's a sword.
Come and tell me why patience is the thing
you are faithful with to call me on.
Can the heavens be if they’re anything
but good to me?
Come and tell me why what I want to do
still isn’t true. Is it me or you?
I feel the pull of gravity
but the atmosphere keeps resisting me.
Come and tell me which one I should choose.
Is it this one or that one?
I want efficiency
a garden with no watering
See the rainfall golden
feel the heavens movement
celestial bodies
silver and golden
This on, and that one
This one or that one
(repeat) - Track Name: Cassiopeia
-
A white tiger, no one can compare to me
It’s effortless, I am just the seated queen
In the heavens you overheard my boasting mouth
black tortoise shell, my secrets are pouring out
The purple forbidden, I had to have a little peek
My daughter suffers, giving her up to the deep
Now I’m waiting in the shadow
Everything will come to light
Though I will be consumed surely
I am tired on the night
I don’t want to feel the darkness of space - Track Name: Swift-Tuttle
- instrumental
- Track Name: Cosmonaut, or the Tunguska Event
-
What moves in the sky?
Blue pillar of light
slow ominous flight
The trees all laid low
Awake from a dream
Pushed by the unseen
We cried to our fathers
Then I saw the wonder
Make way for the fire
Its courses they flew
The sky split in two
The smell of the burning wood - Track Name: Scanning
- instrumental
- Track Name: Intrepid
-
Stop it’s scary here and i’m not sure the morning’s ever gonna come
you frighten me you are the voice i feel but i never see
hide anywhere everywhere you’re far away and i am here
you know it though your spirit is above the water and my soul
will you come down?
Invite me to the mountaintop a ladder down to meet with you
Sandal with wings carry me I have a helper found in thee
I build a frame, I found a stone, I do not read but write my name
Brave on my feet you ask me if I’m worried but should I be?
When you come down? - Track Name: Gorgon
-
the beauty, the horror
the waiting for tomorrow
a church pew, please ignore
the awful earned sorrow
the fault and the credit
the blame and the arrested
a victim, the merit
the vision we contested
the anger, the fire
the cold and distant luster
a serpent, a liar
the truth we try to muster
the coral dried unyielding
the mineral unforgiving
a tale that's retelling
desire to keep on living
the sisters, the sharing
the warrior menagerie
a look in that glaring
the mirror, the injury
the silver, the swift sword
the blood on the sandy shore
a delay on the chord
avoiding what we're looking for
look at me, not me through me - Track Name: Visitors
- instrumental
- Track Name: Perseus
-
perseus
family magnificent
luminous
meteoric and the permanent
perseus
story that we did invent
radius
where is it that your children went
perseus
worldliness has left you bent
mysterious
but it is all just pretend
