Jar of Tears
03:34
|
|
||
Lay my soul down by the river
beneath the willow tree
And I know
I know I’ll never cry again
But I don’t know
I don’t know who’ll dry your tears, my friend
Deep in dark waters
In a jar of tears
I’ve buried all my fears
And I know
I know I should have fought again
But I don’t know
I don’t know how to ease the pain
Uh, from this storm I fled
can’t get it out of my head
Uh, from this storm I fled
can’t get it out of my head
And I know
I know I’ll never cry again
But I don’t know
I don’t know who’ll dry your tears, my friend
Who’ll dry your tears?

The Cocoon
03:20
|
|

One by one will wane
Layer by layer
Woven into the cocoon
With steady hands
the weaver chooses strings
Fingers running, running through strands
Each humming its own tune
Dancing over palms
One by one will wane
Layer by layer
Woven into the cocoon
Like water
carving through stone
The weaver knows no time
Its passing leaving no mark
Running through strands
Until the yarn
has been spun
Twist and turning the course of fate
A human’s everlasting play
Sway to the sound of life

One
04:00
|
|
||
From the innermost depths I hail
Pushing through dark soil and stone
Until I reach the surface
where I start my climb
Unfold, blossom, lignify
Turn to rock, be water and wind
I am the tide
I am everything
and everything is one
Into a sea of sand
I dive and I rise and sink
Storming over hills and fields
Destroy, wither, rot
Untie, dissolve and corrode
I am the orbit
I am everything
and everything is one
View it all
Grow and tear it down
Surrender to the calm
Remove thoughts
Abandon speech
I am the grain
I am everything
and everything is one

Hide and Seek
04:38
|
|
||
Peering through a thicket of leaves
The hunter lingers in the shadows
Awaiting his turn
Hide and seek
Slip away into the woods
Hide and seek
Play the game of good and evil
Hide and seek
Take cover where you cannot be found
Hide and seek
Whispers rushing through the trees
The wind sends his warning
And it all begins
Hide and seek
Slip away into the woods
Hide and seek
Play the game of good and evil
Hide and seek
Take cover where you cannot be found
Hide and seek
Hide and seek
Hide and seek
Play the game
Hide and seek
Hide and seek
Slip away into the woods
Hide and seek
Play the game of good and evil
Hide and seek
Take cover where you cannot be found
Hide and seek

Lady Lavender
04:10
|
|
||
Air vibrating in the summer heat
Filled with the rich scents of nature
carried by the wind
And she wanders along winding roads
A lady clad in purple and gold
Lady Lavender
Her tale is told far and near
Of a scent so sweet
A lady so dear
A lady so dear
Follow the lavender fields
They guide the lost children
to their true home
And the crickets sing their song
as the lady walks on
Lady Lavender
Swaying in the sun
caressing the ground
To raise a scent
All-encompassing
As the lady walks on
Lady Lavender
Her tale is told far and near
Of a scent so sweet
A lady so dear
Lady Lavender
