Divinations Lyrics
[Verse 1: Brent Hinds]
It's gone away
It's gone away
It's gone for good
Animal spirits come calling me home
Through the tunnels of brilliant light
The magnet of wisdom is pulling
Burrowing faster the fabric of time
[Bridge: Troy Sanders]
No escape
Binding spirits
No escape
Trapped in time space
[Verse 2: Brent Hinds]
Rapid descendants
The wormhole is empty
The center of Khlysty surrounds me
The fire is dancing in a silvery sheet of breath
Black robe
Necromancing
Summon the soul of the spectre
[Bridge: Troy Sanders]
No escape
Binding spirits
No escape
Trapped in time space
[Chorus: Troy Sanders]
Fire in the eye
Realm of mystic majesty
[Bridge: Troy Sanders]
No escape
Binding spirits
No escape
Trapped in time space
[Chorus: Troy Sanders]
Fire in the eye
Realm of mystic majesty
Crack the Skye Lyrics
[Verse 1: Scott Kelly]
Blessed visionary cut me with your sun
The rivers ran in blood
Spark fueled to fire
[Chorus 1: Brann Dailor and Troy Sanders]
Deep within this endless void
Searching for a sign
[Verse 2: Kelly]
The vessel forged inside of me
Watches over
Like the death of the moon
[Chorus 2: Dailor and Sanders]
Strike the shepherd, sheep will scatter
Mountains of despair
[Hook: Troy Sanders]
I can see the pain
It's written all over your face
[Verse 3: Kelly]
The screaming arrows tear through my soul
In the dawn your face is haunting
White ghostly dreams of old
[Chorus 3: Dailor and Sanders]
Weight of world is on your shoulder
Hear the voice of gold
[Hook: Sanders]
I can see the pain
It's written all over your face
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Violent soul under my control
Violent soul takes its final toll
Violent soul under my control
Violent soul takes its final toll
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus 4: Dailor and Sanders]
Desperate heathens flock to sirens
Guard your heartache well
[Verse 4: Kelly]
Momma don't let them take her
Don't let them take her down
At least alone
[Chorus 5: Dailor and Sanders]
Please tell Lucifer he can't have this one
Her spirit's too strong
[Outro: Sanders]
I can see the pain
It's written all over your face
I can see the pain
You can make it all go away
Oblivion (Live at XFM) Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro 00:00-00:59]
[Verse 1: Brann Dailor]
I flew beyond the sun before it was time
Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell
Waiting for you to pull me back in
I almost had the world in my sight
[Pre-Chorus: Troy Sanders]
Lost love, bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I've failed?
Tell you I failed
[Chorus: Brent Hinds]
Falling from grace 'cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
[Verse 2: Brann Dailor]
I tried to burrow a hole into the ground
Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hands
The eyes of a child see no wrong
Ignorant bliss, impending doom
[Pre-Chorus: Troy Sanders]
Lost love, bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I've failed?
Tell you I failed
[Chorus: Brent Hinds]
Falling from grace 'cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost
Falling from grace 'cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
[Solo: Brent Hinds]
[Chorus: Brent Hinds]
Falling from grace 'cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost
Falling from grace 'cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
[Outro: Brent Hinds]
In oblivion
In oblivion
