Dev This is deep, primal, experimental with the wide range of unique instruments used. It is an ode to mankind, wilderness and the peace we may come to know, at some point innour lives. Favorite track: Knelt Amongst the Silence.

Unmarred 03:56
Honoring Timeless waters Remembering Oneiric fires Seeking To know the emptiness Returning Wildness and solitude Adorning The blood of the soul Releasing To understand what I hold Inheriting The sacred Journey Everlasting The spirit unfurls
2.
In the council of mountains My heart can breathe The song of the birds gives voice to my soul In eyeless sight they lend me strength Weary friend of silence Rest now where river joins sky Blossoming from ancient forests This wisdom renews My name lost to me Buried somewhere in the path behind The dark soil leaves no trace Accepting impermanence The search for freedom is the freedom we seek
3.
Paean in heart-bound winds Wisdom written in distant peaks Skies flow along your brow Beings nestled neath wings of mist Whispering breath of longing The shimmering waters embrace me Standing upon horizons of memory Manacles of spirit released The silence remembers the ages past When the stone sang a simpler song Gnarled branches in solemn stance Guiding the ascent

A faint remembrance Haunts my heart Forgotten blood Adorns my shadow My spirit yearning ever For the un-answering stillness Inner horizons opening As nameless gates Proud steeds of fog Lead me across A great bridge of suns Conduit through time A breathing eye Through smoke clears a dawn portal And wings then soar Palls of moss Hearth of skies I ascend to the earth To awaken myself Palls of moss Hearth of skies I gather the marrow of storms Votive tears of love

Mending 10:58
Wrought form the grace of memory The warmth of home Burns in the voice of the wind Reaching to the skies Lost in nostalgic seas of things unknown to me In this vastness I hear it's call Traveling through the pulse of a yearning flame That I know will return to nothing Living among the phantoms Of the spark I bore Abiding by a hiraeth A horse to carry me far A reflection to hold what I've sought A mirror to speak through To the ghosts of my path Mending the soul
