ne obliviscaris – painters of the tempest (part ii): triptych lux lyrics

Loading...

{movement 1: creator}

[verse 1: xenoyr]
come forth dark herald
bringer of light
born by the burning swans and his plague breath

creator of the dream coil, a halo aloft
as hands entwine

painters of the tempest, with their red hands
the world their canvas
through the mist of the stormgl-ss

[violin solo: tim charles]

[pre-chorus 1: xenoyr]
and bruegel dreamt the angels above
as bosch danced in earthly delight

[chorus 1: tim]
angels fall
into the canvas
reaching for the light
heaven is empty
and all the beauty is here

[verse 2: xenoyr]
upon this bone palette
the sway of nine-tails
layered lashings of euphoria and chaos
triptychs unfold like wings
as the arms of our fathers bear the weight of what they’ve done
anti-matter-martyrs

[bridge: tim]
warmth of life
where they sing of fire
children’s eyes, for they all shine
as tears rise, oceans of flame billow
when all dreams lose hope

[pre-chorus 2: xenoyr]
and bruegel wept for the fading sun
where have all the angels gone?

[chorus 2: tim, xenoyr]
angels fall
into the canvas
reaching for the light
heaven is empty
as h-ll below
and h-ll below
painted by ghosts

[outro]
lords of lifeless eyes
in this garden of wilted flowers
vultures spake the mother tongue

[guitar solo: benjamin baret]

{movement 2: cynosure}

[verse: tim]
hear the children
breathless sleep
where they dream a new day
echoing
oh when they dream
ebb and flow, free falling

beautiful and calm
and fragile, and whole
where they dream a new day
through the coil they course and carousel
echoes
hear the lost children
hear the children sing
through the coil they carousel
within this stained gl-ss womb
they sing with open minds

[b-ss solo: brendan “cygnus” brown]

[violin solo: tim]

[guitar solo: benjamin]

[chorus: xenoyr]
within this stained gl-ss womb
they see with open minds
the event horizon and beyond

___

{movement 3: curator}

[verse: xenoyr]
a wasteland and so barren
haunted by a sea of pale faces
the city of lost children
raising their death-shrouded flags
can you hear the redrum pounding?
the heartbeat of many as one
curator, father, what have we become?

[chorus: tim]
radiance, blinding horizon
the brilliant sunrise
their horizons, where they seize this life
our children
painters, they are
they are, the change
painters
