OCTOBER TIDE LYRICS

1. Swarm

Saw you there, in a field out that way
Sun was setting perfectly, adorned a mask
Visage outshining the day

White dress - dancing, ablaze in your spotlight
Cicadas from a halo, gentle coercion
Forcing day into night

Forcing day into a night

Insect eclipse - frail wings that claim the heavens
Swarm eating bliss - a screeching symphony, came and went
Existence now a silhouette

White dress - dancing, ablaze in your spotlight
Cicadas from a halo, gentle coercion
Forcing day into night

Lingering doubt of the end - no longer stands

Destruction - threads woven by a single hand
We stitch our necks to the branch

All thing undone, feet wave like pendulum
Six legs - crawling back
To play me a song

2. Sleepless Sun

There is a light somewhere across the sea
In brilliant stride glimmering star it seems
Speaking in a radiant pulse
The wondrous path in cryptic gleam
Glimmering star it seems

This is the code
Oh this I know
Illuminate to reveal a meaning somehow

This fleeting sense of purpose
It cascades

Dusting off the ash to become no longer afraid
Caught in trance
Purity with vantablack
Intertwined they dance

An ensemble
Our rapture
Perfect incandescence
O' sleepless sun

The watchful siren of perilous seas
She laughs and sinks with me
These stones and rope bound to my limbs
Like words never said again
Can we speak through waves of sight and sound,
Or are we frail like a god uncrowned?

[2x]
O' sleepless sun
This is not our time

An ensemble
Our rapture
Perfect incandescence
O' sleepless sun

Still caught in trance
Purity with vantablack
Intertwined they dance

This is the code
Oh this I know
Illuminate to reveal a meaning somehow

An ensemble
Our rapture
Perfect incandescence
O' sleepless sun

3. Reckless Abandon

No need to wonder why
The blood flows in burning tides
Through the gutter that is your veins

It keeps you awake, keeps you aflame

The moment of respite, brought the splendor of hate
Premonition savored like the stranger's embrace
Sacred is nothing, give it all up
The soul, even the body
Free-will destroyed

Fill the omnipresent void
Sacred is nothing, give it all up
The soul, even the body
Free-will destroyed

Fall into insouciance
An eathquake passes without attention
Sewers of red now turning grey
Nowhere is my shelter and home
No need to worrie now
You just have to let go
Release the soul, even the body
You have to let go

It keeps you awake, keeps you aflame

Plagues crafted, from gold
Silver, our light when darkness unfolds

At the mercy of mournfull eyes
Awating the call
Bittersweet, effugy
Recited by us all
A sanctuary of promises
Now left behind, abandon me
The gift of warmth
The sun surrounds
To burn the memory

4. A Question Ignite

A question ignite
Triggers a massive scale
Lifting every stone
Leaving nothing untouched
Feelings arouse to overwhelm

Reaching through, reaching through the dark
Searching the stars on the darkening skies
Clouds thickens to total black
The sky prepair for battle

Thoughts come close to deluge
Excess the presence for the fallen
But still there are mountains unclimbed
Finding more pain to absorb
To endure in hope, in hop for a meaning

Reaching through, reaching through the dark
Searching the stars on the darkening skies
Clouds thickens to total black
The sky prepair for battle

Decay in the dark unforgiving
In these surroundings we are enslaved

A question ignite
Triggers a massive scale
Lifting every stones
Envy for the ones that are living
Sympathy for the lost, for the lost and blackened

Reaching through, reaching through the dark
Searching the stars on the darkening skies
Clouds thickens to total black
The sky prepair for battle

5. Nursed By The Cold

I share my tears for my fallen dreams
That have lost their shape in shame
A leash on my heart restraining me
From reaching my dreams from within

Fading into the darkness
Searching to fill the void inside
Lying trembling on the floor
Demons crying out of the darkness below

Chained to the bottom, nursed by the cold
Silence in dispute with hungry rage
A calm form of turmoil
Where do the demons live?

Why do you fear the night
Am I the reason why you run and hide?
The darkness that lives in me
Can't leave, I will never be free

Chained to the bottom, nursed by the cold
Silence in dispute with hungry rage
Chained to the bottom, nursed by the cold
Silence in dispute with hungry rage
A calm form of turmoil
Where do the demons live?

6. Lost In Rapture

Unsought, a slumber for weary eyes
Bring forth all reflections, shrouding the aimless

Here I am, forgetting to breath
Once more caught in this reverie
Where I simply ceased to be
Forgetting to breath

Embracing the cold,smiles lost in life's rapturous fold

Surrender at the waking hour
Hearts breaking with the dawn
Defeat, nostalgia beckoning
To fall just for the stars

Here I am, forgetting to breath
Once more caught in this reverie
Where I simply ceased to be
Forgetting to breath

A mesmerizing spectacle
The sun and I, are we no the same at all?

The burning wheel, the archetype
Of constant rise
Of constant fall

Unsought, a slumber for weary eyes
Bring forth all reflection, shrouding the aimless mind

Here I am, forgetting to breath
Once more caught in this reverie
Where I simply ceased to be
Forgetting to breath

7. Perilous

An ode to those
Drowning in a sea of dreams
The few that know
The feeling

Something alway missing
Sheer pressure of existing

When the emptiness comes
It's hard to be whole
You have been replaced, although
It's bitterness that linger - in the place you once called home

Lost in the garden
Where only darkness seems to grow

The sight that captivates - amiss
Stealing a breath
The eyes that resuscitate
In the bloom of death
No, you are never alone

Lost in the garden
Where only darkness seems to grow
Lost in the garden
Where only darkness seems to grow
You are not alone

Waiting for the feathers to fall
Wrag your feet, hang your head, walk along the walls
In this labyrinth of thorns
What is left? What is right?
Where memories are born - just to lose their light

The hand that led you here is not to blame
The grip, the warmth, the smile, the fear

Something always missing
The iron in the name

It was always hidden, can't you see?
When I disappear, promise that you'll find me
Where the sky and ocean meet

8. Coffins Of November

Tides of October washed over me again
Like a choir of whispers that wakes in me as the dark arrives
Year after year, building my black coffins under falling leaves
With rusted nails, among the rusted trees
And I cannot hide

[Verse]
These chariots of flames and shades that light the night, I cannot hide!
These thoughts that broke the silence, like thunder in my mind
My hands of demons and words of saints,
In the end they all will remember
As I ride this madness and drag these coffins,
These coffins of November

Like an echo in this valley that I walk, I chant out the weakness
Like a cathedral of souls so lost, my heart always reminds me
Of those piercing eyes like diamonds, like dying embers in the night
When I lay down with my ghosts, who drag me away from the light

[Verse]
These chariots of flames...

Raindrops on my shallow grave, where I listen still and quiet
Scared to breathe and wake those thoughts,
To wake the curse in me again

These coffins in the woods,
These wooden sanctuaries from the world
I can't hide any longer from this coming darkness
This killing season of the mind [2x]

The dark that flames the fires in my eyes
Is the light that guides me through the night
I build these walls to save them
Tonight I count these coffins, five caskets open wide
