Empire Within (Jens Lindh)

I am waiting here outside the garden
The wind is blowing the leaves this way
There was once a place bound to my soul
A landscape carved in sand

We change our course and turn our sails
The wind is blowing the leaves this way
There was once a place bound to my soul
A landscape carved in sand

In the fallen empire this empire within
A victorious dust here
And black earth touched with silver wings
A silent slumber where the dawn is slow to break

Mind like fluid (Jens Lindh)

Between roads and mountain sides
A minds motion like fluid
In the earth under the sleepless sea
In front of my eyes

I have slept in a church
Angel wings touching the walls
Candles fading in the morning light

A thousand nights a thousand days
Between the walls
Between the seas and tress
A minds motion like fluid

In the morning light a familiar tale
All memories lost in my hands

Longing (Magnus Bjärlind)

Into the dark abyss I fall
Not expecting to reach any floor
Laughing demons have torn my soul
I pray to be unable to feel anymore

Hoping my voice will reach your tower
Tell me what you have been longing for
The walls have fallen around your garden of lust
Flowers dead and never found

I let the dust run through my fingers
Into the disappearing ground

I have been sitting up all through this night
To see the stars fall down
And when they fall they fall into my eyes
And make all light go out

Your image appears in the splintered mirror
Just to fade away again
Reflected in the broken glass
A beginning and an end

You are above me in a shimmering light
Yet I know it is best you don't descend
I gaze into the darkness and I know
The light of this dawn is a new one

And when the colours return then I will see
An essence there a stronger sun
I have been longing for you
Something missing it is true
What you have been longing for

Beyond the ocean (Jens Lindh)

Beyond the ocean brews a battle
Stars and blood shall fall
I see a black rock rising from waters blue and green

Will dead kings boldly return and badlands be restored?
