Stone hills and flowing green Where the wild ones run A balcony from which I can see All kingdoms of the earth No fruit bears yet I still have found Peace within myself In this land that I call my home; A temple of the soul Far away in my mountain home But when its time, I’m not alone (x4) Turning grey as the stony cliffs All shall ebb away I have known love and hurt the same Earth, eternal friend Far away in my mountain home But when its time, I’m not alone (x4) (Solo) Far away in my mountain home But when its time, I’m not alone

Skyward, foretell with augury The proud eagle spirit has seen our victory Hear the thunderous beating of wings that shape the clouds Charge and cry a warrior’s shout Onward, to taste your victory The proud eagle spirit has told through augury Clouds are rolling. Wakį́nyąn flies On wings of lightning skies “Far through the plains I see your people rise. With honor and grace, preserve our Mother Earth. Whispered to my thoughts as I flew Father Sky, The Great Mystery has wished you victory! Drinking from their hearts, the Horned Serpent grows. They turned from Inyan, and now serve the cross. Though you walk in shadow, there are clouds above, And I shall stir within them to light your way!” They serve the serpent. The liar, Unktehila Truth will out and break them by the horns Spare the meek and loyal. They are brothers still Charge and cry a warrior’s shout “Whispered to my thoughts as I flew Father Sky, The Great Mystery has wished you victory! Though you walk in shadow, there are clouds above, And I shall stir within them to light your way!”

Wanderer Boundless heights have you dreamed Climbing steeps beyond sight Ease your fears out your breath To conquer Everest Trust in strength of soul Miyolangsangma (repeat)

Young adherent Rancor towards the treacherous ally Fill the pages with your hate as black as ink you scrawl Discordant are your words and solitary “Leave me alone. I don’t want to be alone” Is pain your one companion? Bite your tongue if you want to save yourself from implication Speak aloud Hate burns like a fire Euphoric and benumbing Is this discrepancy as incongruent as you felt? Betrayal Seized Incandescent, sullen with a smile Liars Dwell in every corner of your home Try to erase engravings on the stone that is your heart “Leave me alone. I don’t want to be alone” Your voice is not unheard Speak aloud They said you were gone You never left I always held faith Our sunbeam shines on still Patience is a virtue Take care and heal Your soul is wounded It’s not yet stained We have common lives No one a saint Every angel has sinned That’s not who I am anymore

Freezing winter tempers the heart of stone Warm winds of summer undone Girl with the spirit of spring by her side Trapped still in autumn's bare leaves Show me the things that brought tears to your eyes Time cannot hear your cries But strangers of earthly woes Lay distant beyond the galaxy Heal my heart and dance with me Where none reside No sight, no sound Rest the morning, wake to the evening's dark Light has abandoned its love Man without someone has no one to blame Trapped still by pitied contempt Show me what thoughts brought your pride to its knees Time cannot heal those wounds Two strangers of earthly woes Lay distant beyond the field of stars Heal the hearts of one another Where none reside No sight, no sound

Beyond this barren field I see the brightest star She cannot warm my face It’s light, alas, too far Plunging past the stratosphere Trailing behind a tail of fire Make a wish upon the rock This and your dreams fall as they dissipate Tranquil soar Heedless of the wings that were forged of stone Gentle breeze Welcome of complacency that loves to hear lies Flying free Heedless of the wings that were forged of stone Breathe the air Welcome of complacency that loves to hear lies Once I dreamed prosperity Weavers of our fate have no ear for aspiration Never give one day to smile Fled the nest without my wings, succumb to gravity Plunging down the troposphere Leaving no stream, no tail of fire Made a wish to any god This and my hope dashed as I fled the sky Tranquil soar Heedless of the wings that were forged of stone Gentle breeze Welcome of complacency that loves to hear lies Flying free Heedless of the wings that were forged of stone Breathe the air Welcome of complacency that loves to hear lies Typhon’s rage won’t feast at my soul Gaia’s strength imbued in my skin I will not be the fallen child This, a man who shall climb Everest Of the pain that I see with each step These are friends and woes of my own Sated by the voice of the universe And the prose of empathy Carry onward Sunrise ahead One more step to the top of the hill Then again, as the journey goes Ceaseless quest till the end of time Answered riddles the forces had posed There, a bard by the edge of the hill Singing tales of the mysteries heard Blinded by the awe of the universe Jumps into the ocean unknown Carry onward Midnight ahead Dark and unknown The seven seas of future Explorers dare, improvident beware The waves of time approaching Still across Poseidon’s realm I cannot find my home My eyes turn to the skies And stars beyond this hell Forever I’m trapped inside Gravitational incantation If I had the wings of Icarus I would fly to the Jovian moons (repeat)
