1.
Abandon those around you, do not be afraid of the sun as it rises at the end of all days. Descend to the place where nothing is known, ascend to where the landscape is shown. We arise in the morning with dreams stuck in our heads. These are the songs the living sing to the dead. Welcome back to the void, welcome to nothing, We've always loved you here. We are so glad that your remember where your home is, where your roots drink deep. This is your mirror, a piece of black paper. This is your home now, a city swallowed by sea. So welcome back to the void, welcome to nothing, your home is always here. The shrines of the earth paved by the altars of man. The cities we built buried in sand. Our lives are minute, a word lost in the wind, but the statements we make will stand till the end.
2.
Father, where are your children? You've been gone a thousand years. Mother, why are you weeping? I walk your trail of tears. Nothing left to eat here, nothing to drink now but our tears. Dawn comes like a hunter, we hide our souls for a thousand years.

Dreamer 03:58
I am not a dreamer, I have torn living things up by their roots. I am not a dreamer at all. I am not a dreamer as I watch the fading of my youth. This is not a dream, I know. See the bones left where the spirit wakes up, another life spent chasing paychecks, a pair of ears deaf to the sound of a world dying. And if the earth sees through our eyes, then when we're gone, will the world be blind? It doesn't matter, unless a million years is a long time. When are you going to wake up? Are you going to wake up when you die?
