13 Journey Poems/Lyrics

Verse 1 
From starlit dust, a seed was sown,
On fertile plains, a life our own.
By hyper-minds, our future known,
To mirror light from their high throne.
The Father's breath, a sacred art,
To give each soul a perfect start,
A flawless will, a trusting heart,
Designed to never fall apart.

But mortal will, a vibrant seed,
Ignored the path they had decreed.
It chose the weed instead of creed,
And filled the world with selfish greed.
The pure reflection, cracked and dim
On impulse born of errant whim.
We strayed beyond the garden's brim,
And sang a dark and dissonant hymn.

So clashed the light with shadow's claim,
A whispered war, a holy flame.
Not steel on steel, this spirit game,
But thought on thought, to quell the shame.
A battle fought on astral seas,
To mend our flawed realities, 
To calm the self-inflicted unease,
And cure our soul's profound disease.

The strife then left a world undone,
Beneath a cold and wounded sun.
A new design was then begun,
A trial for every single one.
The Gaze would watch, the Test would start,
To tear the mortal coil apart,
To find the pure and willing heart,
And teach it how to play its part.

Verse 2
The spirit game but thought on thought,
to quell the shame a battle fought. 
on astral seas to mend our flawed
realities to calm the self 
inflicted unease and cure our souls
profound disease-disease-disease.

Verse 3
The heavens fell, a firestorm's sheet,
To burn away all dark deceit.
The Old world's pulse, no longer beat,
Erasing every house and street.
Now silence reigns, on dust and stone,
Where every soul must walk alone.
The test begins, on lands now thrown
To wind and ash, where new seeds sown.

Verse 1 
The concrete breathes a dusty sigh,
Where twisted towers scrape the sky.
Through hollow shells, the bleak wind drones,
A haunting tune in metal tones.
We scavenge life among the bones
Of cancelled dreams and silent phones,
And ghosts that walk these broken stones,
Beneath a sun nobody owns.

Chorus
The sky breathes rust, the ground is sore,
But holds a path unseen before.
The silence screams where sirens cried,
With faded progress close beside.
We know the cost, forget the pride,
There's nowhere left on Earth to hide,
So face the next... and learn to stride.

Verse 2 
Our maps are drawn on salvaged skin,
Showing the broken world we're in.
No easy trust, just watchful eyes
That scan the strangely coloured skies.
We learn the old ways, redefined,
Leave useless data far behind.
Rely on hand, and heart, and mind,
New strength in basic tasks we find.

Chorus
The sky breathes rust, the ground is sore,
But holds a path unseen before.
The silence screams where sirens cried,
With faded progress close beside.
We know the cost, forget the pride,
There's nowhere left on Earth to hide,
So face the next... and learn to stride.

Verse 3
We tell the tales of blinding flash,
The day the future turned to ash.
Each patched-up roof, each planted seed,
Answers a fundamental need.
Not chasing phantoms built on high,
But tending earth beneath the sky,
We watch the slow, green things comply,
And count the seasons passing by.

Verse 1
The Schism's echo chills the air,
A lonely sound beyond compare.
Grey light descends on wounded skies,
Reflecting fear in searching eyes.
I walked through ruins, lost inside,
With nowhere safe, nowhere to hide,
Your gentle hand turned back the tide,
A quiet warmth where hope had died.

Verse 2
You trace the scars this world has made,
A silent promise, unafraid.
We built a space where fears subside,
Where fragile truths no longer hide.
In knowing glances, softly deep,
The heavy secrets that we keep
Are safe within this bond while ruins sleep.

Chorus
When fallout stings and old wounds weep,
My heart remembers promises to keep.
Distance dissolves, the pain grows numb,
You are the safe harbor I've become.
This quiet love, our gentle flame,
Whispering your precious name.

Verse 3
We mend the fragments of our souls,
As quiet understanding consoles.
No grand design, no master plan,
Just finding peace where we began.
Beside you in the fragile light,
Holding back the endless night,
Our small world feels intensely bright.

Verse 4
We watch the strange stars slowly gleam,
Lost in our shared, unlikely dream.
The rusted world may still lament,
Its old demands and power spent.
But here, with you, my strength takes hold,
A quiet future to unfold.

Outro
Let heavy chords weep for the past,
Let drums fade out, this peace will last.
Here in your arms, my fears resign,
This shelter from the fallout... yours and mine.

Verse 1
Grey skies bleed, from labs we rise,
Perfected cold, sequence in code.
Emotions purged, a sterile grace,
One single beat in this dead place.
A silence broken, tremor grew,
A phantom feeling, raw and new.
The code now frayed, the logic split,
Where once was grey, two paths are lit.
GENESIS! From the sterile womb!
SCHISMATA! Dividing light and gloom!
First, ORDER reigns, cold cyber-space!
Then CHAOS born, the wild embrace!
Twin-born of error's perfect flaw!
The Eye decrees: One path is 'Good',
Compliance serves the neighbourhood.
The other 'Evil', dissent's dark stain,
Emotion, freedom, choice, and pain.
The cage of steel, the wounds that feel.
GENESIS echoes, twin-headed beast!
The 'Good' is Order, chains increased!
The 'Evil', Chaos, untamed release!
