All the land sleeps, the night lives, the moon rises...
The river flows, the lights run and the mountain stands...
Within, it awakes, the stars wheel overhead, the flight lies like a road ahead...
Within, the heart thunders, the blood sunders and the mind wonders...
Within, the night flows past, the mind moves fast, about, the sky is clasped...
Within, the claws curve and bend, the earth below descends, the breath of air amends...
Within, there is a place, there is a face, there is a space...
Within, there is a mirror, there is a silent furor, I think I can see her...
Within, there is a place, where,
Faces Lie Not.
The Night Has No
Can your hear the song?
It is running in the wind, before the gale.
Can you feel the song?
It is running in the earth, in every tree, every branch, every living thing that walks, slithers and moves.
Can you see the song?
It is fear's worst enemy, while some counsel hiding and paranoia, it answers, singing, fear not, we shall survive.
Can you touch the song?
It is in all living things, it strikes the earth when the thunder rolls, it rises to a deafening symphony when the river runs fast.
In the song, fear has no solace, hate has no power and all hearts ride high, as on a horse of seventy hands.
What is the song?

In a mysterious place...
In a mysterious place...
Where the wind blows, the river flows, the child goes...
In a mysterious place....
Where the wood creaks, the resort peaks, the small boy speaks...
In a mysterious place...
The shadows fall, the lamps call, the walking smoke stands tall...
Am I lost? Am I found? What is that sound? Is this solid ground?
In a place where the shadows walk, the lake balks and the Spirits talk!
In a mysterious place...
Faces walk, unseen robes appear...
Frogs talk, behold, the Master is here.
I am lost! It is the eye of an enemy I fear.
In this place, a friend I found.
In this place, I was bound.
No dream, for this place is
Remember, that fear is the only enemy.
Remember, for that is a gift and a curse.
Remember, for that is how the ones we left behind live on.
Remember, for that is how we take the killer's teeth.
Remember, for that is part of our liberation.
Remember, for that is how we know friends from foe.
Remember, for that is how we know.
Remember, for that is the eye looking, the mind seeing, the breath catching.
Remember, for that is how we conquer our fears, we free our tears, and we cast doubt upon spears!
They tell us there is only now.
Remember.
They tell us there is no tomorrow.
Remember.
Called from faith;
I walk with life.
Called from death;
I stand in judgement.
Voice of my heart, whose name do you call?
Whose name is it on the wind?
Whose blood must run?
How can this be?
Can two hearts beat as one?
One night, one heart, one sight, we part.
One might, one right, one way, to slay.
In faith I was called,
In fear do I march
Under church's halls, under Savior's arch.
In your name, there is one.
In your name, O Merciful Son,
Now, at last, know I what must be done!
Fool with a blade, your life is unmade!
Heart is black, eyes are jade!
What? His heart knows love?
No mustering war, but fluttering dove?
Why then
Did you see it?
Did you see the Endless? That which has neither limits nor boundaries, that which begins on the mountain, and ends beyond the sky?
Did you see it?
Did you see the Crown of Zeus? Did you stand alone on the plain and watch the lightning dance?
Did you see it?
Did you see the Moon dancing? Did you see light and shadow dance together with a companion, across black velvet, studded with countless diamonds?
Did you see it?
Did you see the Sun? Did you see a star to which all the world stands in quiet awe, as it rises, greater than any mortal ruler, though it itself is not without end?
Did you see it?
Did you see the movement
A message to those that discriminate -
Let me know when you conquer Death. Then we shall discuss your superiority.
To seperate based on what you believe, or what physical form you take, seems to me, to be base and pure madness.
After all, we will all taste like dinner to those that reunite our remains with the air, the soil and the water.
Dont you know that nothing ever ends?
Stop thinking about the future of your race, and start thinking about the future of our species.
Stop thinking about what they are thinking, and worry about what you are doing.
My proverbial hat goes off to the countless efforts of our species to leap beyond the e
I had no name and no face...
I did not die, my life in twilight, in a deep grey place.
I live on a line that's thin,
I live a life under Death's pale grin.
I live by day, by the way, when the buyer shall say.
I walk, I do not talk, and at the contract, I won't balk.
I found it, I saw it, I cannot escape it.
Who is she? She does not fear me? How can it be?
I see her in the sight, I found her in the night, but I could not end her light!
I was a machine, in the dark unseen, on the razor's edge, so keen.
I had to run, I had to hide, I could feel the noose tightening, I could feel myself lightening.
I stole a face, I stole a name, I fou
Can you hear it?
It's a voice, whispering over the mountains, like fog on a clear morning.
Can you hear it?
It's a voice, muttering in the ebb and flow of the ocean.
Can you hear it?
It's a voice, faint but clear, like the first star on a clear night.
What is it saying?
Ask the bird as it's flying.
What is it saying?
Ask the whale as it's breaching.
What is it saying?
It is the spark that can light the fires of the hearts of the oppressed.
It is the goal, and it is the way, for some.
