~LUNAR CHATEAU~ Release Date: September 15, 1994 Music Composed, Arranged, Produced and Performed by Lunar Chateau ~THE THRUST~ (3:11) (Instrumental) ~THE LUNAR CHATEAU~ (4:59) As above, so below A haven for a weary soul Overlooking the vast vista With a special grace Be the dream, so be it With ambience of candles lit I doubt that they will ever see The chateau that's so dear to me [Chorus] At ease, I feel the pulse of geologic time Release, all the memories that keep you behind Nevermind, here we are at last on our Lunar Chateau Looking out the window at the cosmic show As above, so below As above, so below Among the splendors of my home Friends visiting soon In scarlet robes upon my steps Then we'll dine and talk About those ancient astronauts Of how they mined the Gaian shores And left their footprints as folklore [Chorus] As above, so below A haven for a weary soul Overlooking the vast vista With a special grace Be the dream, so be it With ambience of candles lit I doubt that they will ever see The chateau that's so dear to me [Chorus] ~BROTHERS IN BLOOD~ (4:56) Emotional tides run high And tensions overflow As they scale the glassy mountain Struggling for the fountain Blood is bathed in magical waters tonight Blood is bathed in magical waters tonight Witnesses of this morbid festival Clothe themselves in the warmth of the spectacle [Chorus] One blood brother magician Is a magical water technician The other blood brother magician Is on one hell of a mission One blood brother magician Killed his nocturnal visions The other blood brother magician Cursed his life with deep incisions Dreamers of the flood Took a dark train out of town Westward for a tortured kingdom Nosferatu's kingdom The demon conductor smiled With eyes of betrayal Blood was the force with the thirst That powered the rail Ominous thunder Heralded a storm our way I awoke in the dead of night Saw a burning train miles away [Chorus] ~THE EYES OF A CHILD~ (4:16) All our hopes and dreams tonight Darkening with evening light They will surely fade away If we lie and sleep awake If we lie and sleep awake You, with your eyes so bright You see the world through the eyes of a child You can trust your senses Set your spirit running wild Set your spirit running wild All the things that I've been through And all the people I once knew Where are they now, where can they be? Perhaps another reality Perhaps another reality [Chorus] I've lived at least a thousand lives The windswept desert, you and I There's more to this than eye can see All the things that I've been through All the people I once knew And all the forces involved to create thee When your love is burning bright Take the fear, cast it aside Open treasures from within That waited so long to begin That waited so long to begin You are the hope and key To the seasons and fortunes in life There are curses and blessings The ancient circle of love and strife The ancient circle of love and strife [Chorus] All our hopes and dreams are bright Rising with this morning's light They will surely fade away If we lie and sleep awake If we lie and sleep awake ~ANCESTORS~ (5:25) The forest drew her breath Airborne eagle feathers Drifted from trees to the ground Each without a sound Waited to be found The whispers in the dream Revealed the gift downstream Harvesting by the moon They heard a lonely loon Where apple blossoms bloom [Chorus] Ancestral eyes are watching Shadows dancing in fearful flames Burning everything revered Absent in conscience, empty of shame Red blood runs deep into the sand Ancestors haunt this land The living and the dead Built a bridge together Through the stormy weather They longed to touch and give A glimpse of how each other lived The spirit and the flesh Were cursed by a crucifix Though each loved the other It's weight they could not lift So both were cast adrift [Chorus] ~TRANSFORMER~ (3:43) Just a moment ago Awoke an emotion Staring me in the eyes Celestial faces in the skies Gracing the spaces Transforming all our lives With peace and wonder and awe Flowing free like running water Overwhelmed by what I saw But you were holding my hand Holding my hand [Chorus] Part of change is persistence Part of change is resistance Be prepared for sacrifices And be willing to go the distance To transform existence Love is true and struggles to survive All the impediments of the "I" Words are only shadows of what we feel Gracing the spaces Transforming all our lives Once cast down by rage Now questing by the light - a sage The course is redeemed and true When you and I can understand Understand [Chorus] Changes come and they will take you Changes come and they might break you Looking back, some days enlighten Looking back, some night we wander And transform existence ~CONSEQUENCES~ (6:27) Darkness sets upon this land Tonight the shadows weep Their somber tones tell tortured tales Of mother earth and streets And all those streets lead to dark consequences Suffering sophistication Spiritual desolation Empires will rise and fall They rise and fall to them And all those streets lead to dark consequences Voices whispered thoughts of dread No one spoke but all was said Vultures sculptured skies of fear On their wings the night soared near Dark and ancient city's glare Cold steel pavements wet and bare Misty lights in empty streets Oblivion here all completes ~ON YOUR WAY~ (6:20) Shadows rest in the silence The evening dreams of peace Wisdom is calling at the door Telling you to leave On a path of courage Strength is at your command To ring the bells within our clay We must go, rejoice in the beauty of the way Raindrops of days fall into streams of weeks Streams of weeks move out to rivers of months Rivers of months pour into oceans of years Oceans of years hold salty tears of our regrets Only a path with a heart Can keep your spirit strong Alive with light, shining on Through the dark forest You are on your way The blessing from the distant stars Is knowing who you are Sometimes it takes so long To reach and touch how you feel Because this volcanic life is built to conceal Sooner or later you'll find out just what is real Our Mother, nature Our Father, time Do we feel their eternity? Do we feel them holding us tenderly? Whispering: Only a path with a heart Can keep your spirit strong Alive with light, shining on Through the dark forest You are on your way Raindrops of days fall into streams of weeks Streams of weeks move out to rivers of months Rivers of months pour into oceans of years Oceans of years hold salty tears of our regrets ~TO BE ALIVE~   (4:06) Sunlight on a golden key Sparkling from the bottom of the sea Take a ship out, dive and retrieve Your treasure by birthright Sacred and missing [Chorus] It feels so good to be alive Aware of all those precious little things It feels so good to be alive In the beauty that the moment brings In time we will remember The wisdom in the old river's song We'll weave a warm and loving nest From the straws and twigs of tenderness [Chorus] Daybreak, the light's shining through With all of creation burning true From the bricks today we can build tomorrow An artwork of clay from our deepest sorrow [Chorus] ~METROPOLIS~ (3:49) (Instrumental) ~FEARLESS~ (2:45) (Drum Solo) ~AURORA BOREALIS~ (8:15) I can divine from this storm These severe warnings Oh, Supreme One It goes so far back Looking at you I understand These forking roads that I am I move in certain Ambiguous ways Ahead or behind, to never find Delicate but strained Soothing, uneven Stumbling as I sit among the steps Wind, rain and thunder Teach me what they cannot I will listen Tonight, I'm here - awake Tonight, I'm here - awake Tonight, I'm here - awake Mesea Records Catalogue No: FGBG4117.AR Lyrics Copyrighted 2001 by Lunar Chateau Publishing.
