wrapped around so close as the folds of the world all of a sudden start to unfold I turn for a grasp but everything's gone bound to become what right did go wrong? but these lands are new to me it's hard to see what's left getting used to being free as the arms I spread get bent lonely stray, turn around sun will reach you out, you'll come unbound please stay, you’re not theirs to claim sun will reach you out you'll come unbound the stilness of choirs hatched in the bosom of void run wild through the garden unheard are the songs of their voice forged in old fire left burning in new flames we're cast shadows on the wall by the lights at the edge of the world this is not what I chose to be it’s hard to see what’s left of me but these hearts will rise so high they’ll crack the sky, you’ll see lonely stray, turn around sun will reach you out, you'll come unbound please stay, you’re not theirs to claim sun will reach you out you'll come unbound hot ashes and fires hopes and desires my honey and my milk teeth got to hold them underneath

Wildflower 03:19
these hands, you see, are all crooked and frail grow light, wildflower wish I never left the belly of the whale grow light, wildflower but if I cannot find my way in and sprout grow light, wildflower stars will guide my own way out grow light, wildflower stay safe from these birds of prey, you’ll find a way don’t let the fire in your eyes fade you’ll find a way constellations will stay the same you’ll find your way but I swallowed my own tongue and tale give me birth again

when I learned how to walk I forgot how to stay when I learned how to fly I left alone on my way
5.
you’re showing me life I’m colorblind wings are drawn to the side seeking peace of mind things will turn out right if you’ll follow the sweetwaters within but the place you long for such a little world where the flowers you love hardly ever grow dance in small spaces with shadows that no one gets to know I’ll try to come through what more can I do and light will illuminate and flare (over) the shades that we share you lift me up I drag you down that thing you said it’s lost, not to be found that place of mine, where you feel me and watch me fool around gone into thin air I’ll be gone just before the dawn it’s farewell, waves inside begin to swell hands shake and walls tear take care, take care, take care goodbye, but in your flight go towards the white light now there is no time for wonders and miracles oh, will you be so kind to hear my prayer at the crown of the mountain you will find transfiguration
6.
your palms, your bones, your arms will outgrow me my knees up to my chest, the trees devouring our nest but near your mind, all bends unwind I need you when mouths collide stay by my side let nothing in between keep your heart evergreen the strength we’ll get as one believe me, towers will fall and crash under our song from all the things I dread you leaving cracks me up, I’d have my body struck instead you speak in tongues I’m painted blue but in the darkness we’re both the same I’ll know no shame won’t be afraid when I’m with you I know what’s true what’s true…? what’s true… when I’m with you the hunter strikes our sky you try but hounds are seizing, shots tear down your flight now let me be your rest, relieve me we’ll hold back time just by holding our breath you speak in tongues I’m painted blue but in the darkness we’re both the same I’ll know no shame won’t be afraid if I’m with you love will endure – endure, endure ce-aproape suntem amândoi între noi e-o luptă corp la corp iubire corp la corp ce departe suntem amândoi între noi e-o luptă corp la corp iubire corp la corp

I’ve been trying hard to reach you now you’re giving up and the brightest of your eyes has left me blind so I can no longer see oh, what might have been your look lost all its blue, my air is thin thousands of years gazing and travelling with the light have led me to the darkest void of night where arms are shivering under the horror how I miss fading into you daughter of darkness, grip all the sorrow hold my hand and get me through those fuzzy dance moves turn light to dust you’re fading into me I lost your wavelenght right at the dusk please, shine on and let me be I’m fading into you hold my hand and get me through you’re fading into me please, shine on and let me be so much of the time we just mistreat and leave beloved ones wander with cold feet silent passengers in the backseat missing every chance to finally speak the time's up though you had much more stories to tell oh, I can’t tell if you were fighting demons in your shell the skies swell over me you hide behind the night, beautiful one as though there is something yet to be said chords that coalesced now come undone let echoes pass your soul before they're gone
8.
it takes many thousands of miles to understand that giving and taking don’t go hand in hand but I can no longer tell one from another it takes so much love to love me to love me and now I just wonder my hands get so rough am I being enough am I loving enough did you know that in the darkest of nights you’re my white have hope for in the blackest of your eyes there’s moonlight

remember when you stopped believing turned your face away from sun what use in being unforgiving it’s kindness all revolves around sleep now, you little one sleep now rest your wings now, you little one sleep now if here under the light you will now sleep tomorrow you’ll wake up with eyes that see when sun will rise it all will be forgiven a churchbell ringing for the unbeliever
11.
with all these sails that I’ve blown lost the thread that led back home now you’re finding me all alone how I tossed, how I turned inside out, upside down will I fit in this brave new world bit my tail in a twirl I lost myself at sea misguided by the sirens’ sing let yourself just be for you are dearer to me than ever finally open up your wings white-feathered, white feather
12.
where there is hatred let me scatter love if your sorrow’s aided, that for me’s enough when you’re feeling lost I’ll grab you by the hand oh, I’ve tried to mend but don’t you understand? the closer that I get the more afraid that loving will be ending in heartbreak you’re asking me to put my heart at stake sweet ache on every little bruise that’s on your skin feel the pain of those who harmed but did not mean those weary hearts will fall to ground like stones raising glass cathredrals where there once were wars the fear of pain hurts more than pain alone fighting these windmills just makes them grow life coming to standstill under their shadow friend or foe? we are one great ocean streaming life unbounded by time be kind for every deed of light turns back to you, great ocean streaming life unbounded by space embrace for every harm that waits will turn back to you ((the circle of life spins onwards forevermore stirring us into the circle of life spinning onwards evermore stirring us into))
