Track Name: Mea Culpa
Mea Culpa

I’ll tell you my secret name
I’ll show you the pearls that I’ve kept safe
Share with you the mysteries we keep
The Bread of Life, we break and eat

And if I do this, I’ll have done everything
Then your face will shine bright as the morning
And that will be the end of all things

All my life I’ve waited to do one thing
Days and days finding the words to speak
And when it’s said, then comes the ending
The trumpet sounds, the joy, the glory

And if I do this, I’ll have done everything
Then my face will shine bright as the morning
And that will be the end of all things
Track Name: The Hyacinth
The Hyacinth

Cast all your cares from you
your time will fade away like most folks do
O Pilgrim! O my brother, there's nothing to work through
your name's engraved and all's in place
they're singing songs for you
cast all your cares from you

Close the door, walk away
afternoon and your still at the gate
O dreamer! O my brother, the flowers have all been laid
the rise, the fall, it comes to all
another takes your place
close the door, walk away
Track Name: The Great Entrance (My Heart Is Already Under the Earth)
The Great Entrance (My Heart Is Already Under the Earth)

The foundations have all been broken
Our houses taken by the oceans
“The Children of Men”
Still caught in my head

The headlines give in, the world won’t listen
The rumors of wars in our mouths wide open
And I stand with my wife
At the “Little Entrance”

Do you see it? Do you see it?
A flag that is unfurled
Do you hear it? Do you hear it?
The prettiest funeral
And I believe it! I believe it!
Though I’m the only one left in this world
My heart is already under the Earth

The bells are ringing, the tides are rising
We hold in our hands all the poems we were writing
There’s still time to kill
With a few lamentations

And nature is turning, the gardens are closing
The people look pretty all stretched out and waiting
And I stand with my wife
At the “Great Entrance”

Do you see it? Do you see it?
A flag that is unfurled
Do you hear it? Do you hear it?
The prettiest funeral
And I believe it! I believe it!
Though I’m the only one left in this world
My heart is already under the Earth
Track Name: Chrysanthemum
Chrysanthemum

Is this the end, oblivion?
and in our hands, chrysanthemum
for it's a sign of what's to come
The Great Divide, The Great Undone

Here I am standing at this door
with the weight of the world all gone to war
I carry it around if you can tell
it is an art and I do it well

We have to set this before our eyes
carve it into our hearts with knives
"A third of all those with Him fell"
I wrote it down, underlined it well

We have to set this before our eyes
carve it into our hearts with knives
"A third of all those with Him fell"
I wrote it down, underlined it so well
