lyrics

The Illusion's Reckoning
(Findlay/Kerzner)

The surrendering of time
To the constancy of flow
Hearts are on the line
In a house of flesh and bone

Exchanging deadly fire
For a monumental freeze
Shattering mortal binds
With a King for every Queen

Wasting your time in the contraflow
Paddling upstream
Well it's time to let it go

Breaking down the walls
That preceded the silence
Secrets of the soul
In a body dreaming

Breaking the fall
With an armour of light
Illuminating science
In the art of being
For all human beings

In the gathering of darkness
Unshaken revery
Dissolves a crowd of sorrows
The illusion's reckoning

Arresting of all thought
In stillness momentary
Tame the wildest flower
Bring the birds among the beasts

May you not fall
Like dominos
Celebrate your tears
In the crying of your soul

Breaking down the walls
And revealing the silence
Secrets of the soul
Leave a body dreaming

Breaking the fall
With an armour of light
Take a breath of science
In the art of being
For all human beings
All who swim the rivers of silence
Never will be without
A song that exists of time Immemorial

Like the stars that call
Call you home

For the abandoned of all love
And deserted of all peace
A universal tribe
Assembled in the east

The sages of the fire mist
And the archers of belief
Are headed for the heart
Of all humanity

May you not walk
In the vale of ghosts
Become the star
That'll guide you home

Breaking down the walls
And revealing the silence
Secrets of the soul
In a body dreaming

Breaking the fall
With an armour of light
Illuminating science
In the art of being
For all human beings

Breaking down the walls
That receded the science
Secrets of the soul
In a body dreaming

Breaking our fall
With an army of light
Take a breath of silence
In the art of being
For all human beings

All who swim the rivers of silence
Never will be without
A song that exists of time immemorial

like the stars
That call
Call you home
Call....
