about

1st Song from the Debut EP

lyrics

The rose that wilts was once the rose that freshly bloomed Each living thing shall have its day, and then its doom
The gnaw of Time, slow, consuming until all is dust
And for our greatest works, all we'll have to show is rust  

Grim reflections sometimes leap out from obscurity
Inide of fleeting moments, they breach our consciousness
And then it's like they're gone
Without ever really leaving

In my dreams I saw a robed succession of strangers
I myself was walking and found myself in their ranks
Young in the rear with the old out in front
Not an utterance of where we were going

And upon waking that's all little more than grogginess
The mind prefer's its sober thruths with a side of foginess
But it's all still there And we still make the Procession
In our solitary lives With our isolated incidents
We still walk together To our collective destination



And the days go on
Shaping existence, flowing one by one
Like grasping sand time slips the fingers
Suppose I'll wait till I've no spirit left to linger

Life is like the tide It has its ebbs and flows
Yet the strand runs short As the tapestry grows

That which unmakes us Is what really makes us
Measuring success In relation to our finitude

We go forth to the blinding light
We walk together in a ceaseless march
And there's no hesitation From finish to start

But when you find yourself in your critical moment
Will you look back at the others as they make the procession
The electricity in your mind to dissipate as heat
And at the cross of the threshold you will forever sleep

We will all make the procession And there will be full participation
