The Angle of Eternity

i can feel the withering reflection of my body
like the moon devoured by the shadow of the sun
knees and hands for praying but lips that won't sing
they beg for mercy from the promise of a fall
o' blood of my blood!
grant me serenity
show me the lights in the skies are just candles
floating down infinite streams
sand in grains is countless until you give it a purpose
put it in a glass just to watch it run out
so what's the use of trying if trying won't save?
we bend like branches for our moment in the sun
o' blood of my blood!
grant me serenity
show me the lights in the skies are just candles
floating down infinite streams
o' flesh of my flesh!
can i be more than me?
i want transcendence into the angle of eternity

Am and Ever Will Be

when i wake up, i run from my ego
the water is warmer now
it cradles my head
it flows from the trunk of me
in this egg
in this womb
the sediment is settling
the sentiment is setting in
it's getting scary in here
silent and calm
lucid but threatening
i am open, i am raw
i am naked and can feel my extremeties
crackle with life
do i accept the fire?

Hell's Been Here
05:16
|

|
total revelation
this room is growing dark
my mind is bent and bright
craving meditation
a silence i'm denied
when hell's been here
waiting, i flit and suffer
but i'm no butterfly
my knife will tear into the night
i sing hallelujah
a hymn for what i find
when hell's been here

Tint Revival

|
the willow and the weeper
they sing a different tune
one's song is loneliness the other is the dew
but they both cry
the hunter and the harrow
destructive though they be
will each return to dust before their culling is complete
and they will rot
but i am just a scarecrow
tethered to the world
i've got fourteen bucks in a Bible, baby,
do you think that'll be enough to set me free?

Leave the Light On
04:36
|
|||
|
sun rose years ago and shattered
sky loomed but in your room you were lying down
you lay your head upon my chest and cried out,
"my love, when you go, leave the light on."
when you go away
sun shone on our own inner being
light played and promises made while we're seeing
the pain that lasts and shadows we cast won't find us
take care, while other's despair leave the light on
when we go away
sun set but we haven't yet lived a lifetime
and so, before i go, leave the light on
please leave the light on
when i go away

Dear Woodland Creatures Atlanta, Georgia
Dear Woodland Creatures is the brainchild of Atlanta-based multi instrumentalist and composer Joshua Washburn. Combining heavy, atmospheric doom metal with elements of American folk traditions and a host of global influences, it is a psychedelic exercise in the evocative, meditative, and cathartic power of music. ... more
