Falling

I can feel my own body, it’s falling,
Time has no meaning and is still.
A memory, a recollection,
Life separates from conscious will.
Mother have you seen the child?
The one you lost so long ago?
I’m crying out, can you hear my voice?
My story is; yet to be told.
Leave me be; to die with this pain,
A young man’s life that is left to the un-sane.
It’s just a memory of life before,
An action that left nothing…
to ignore.
I don’t want be like this,
Please can you help me?
I know I can find my way
I can find my way back home…

{David the Elder}
Where am I, How did I get to this…
Place, So strange and colorful I do
Find, I can shape the world within my very own
Mind, oh what is this?
Have I passed into the lost enteral
Realm? Or have I descended into the depths
Hell? My mind swirls like the pool
The reflection of an old fool.
{The Boy}
Welcome to my journey my friend
The key to one’s life’s bitter end
The door can open with the sound of the bell
Is the path I know all too well.
I can show you the worlds that I create
My mind’s children that I humbly make
Never to be far from my lonely side
Is the love for I longed inside.
{David the Elder}
Little boy, show me your dreams
I need to know how you create these scenes?
What you do, can not be right? You can not-
Play God with the power of the night.
I too can create what you deploy.
It seems nothing can be destroyed.
This doesn’t make any logical sense.
All of concerns are not brought to the tense.
{The Boy}
Welcome to my journey dear friend
Come to the well at the world’s end.
Your own happiness you soon have to tell.
Is the path I know all too well.
I can show you the worlds that I create
All my children have their time and place.
Never to be far from my lonely side
Is the love for I longed inside.
{David the Elder}
I was lost so long ago, so lonely I do
yearn, for my mother who left my
side, for the day that I died.
OH So lonely, I cried,
OH So lonely, I died.
{The Boy}
But you are now a God!
No worries should have my son!
{David the Elder}
No don’t you see?
We both can never leave?
We need to take creatures we have paired,
Once created, can n ever be destroyed.
{The Boy}
The world is yours to control
Why do you put yourself through this turmoil?
{The Boy}
But, welcome to my journey dear friend
You are invited to help us lend a hand.
For our children, who all adore should tell.
Is the path WE know all to well.
I can show you the worlds that I create
A young boys imagination must never waste.
To create a world of this love and pride.
Is the love for I longed inside.
{David the Elder}
I must leave, I need some time to think, (this)
World may drive my mind to the brink!
I must understand why you act like you do?
To create this world that is holy untrue.
Suggest you stay here my little friend.
N o more conjures until my mind can comprehend.
I will provide a solution in due time,
To escape back home, from this perilous kind.
{The Boy}
Listen carefully to my song dear friend.
The world is my own and will never end.
You will understand in a time and place.
That this land has been my saving grace.
For adventures you may take with you.
To find your own journey that’s up to you.
But my family has kept me alive.
And now I will let go… for what’s….inside…

The Cold intensity
Of this new world before me
Its the evil you don’t see
What you conjure boy
All your thoughts prescribed
A dark soul within me created
and mind you can control
Creatures destroyed by the night
Sold to you by the Gods of secrecy
Becoming your desire
Don't see through the logic
Within the primitive mind
Landed here in this place
Cold, dark and all alone
How did I see your face
As you call me so kind
Lead me to the door
Of the human race in their moments
when they create dichotomous ways
Time is of the essence
You are wasting away
A body, and a corpse
Filled with rot and decay
The moment to change has come
The moment to change is now
Dim light calls to me.
Fights to stop the evil plea (play).
This chaos must be restrained
I can not overcome
Stop your will and dreams
Submit all your power unto me
Go forth my newborn one

(Phoenix Spirit)
A little boy playing in his room
Playing with his cars and blocks
Not knowing - of the evil that has entered
Not knowing - of the impending doom
The Phoenix will protect this young boy
You will not - bring harm to him
He holds - the key to our universe
I was chosen to protect that within
(David the Younger - As a Young Child)
Here is the soft glow of protection
I lie with self assurance
Knowing that no harm will come to me
For those who has perseverance
(Phoenix Spirit)
Little boy I am your chosen keeper
Keep your strength, for all that you do.
He has needs that he doesn’t understand
I will try to not let him have you.
Your purpose is defined for greater things
You will soon find your own path.
Find the inner peace of that maternal love
Something that you longed to have.
Beyond this realm we must connect
The two points of logic you will not reject
This boy is the key to the master’s plan
You will not longer have a hand.
(Dark Dweller)
Your interference is not welcomed
You do not understand his primitive mind!
Others will call him crazy...
You are just becoming a waste of time.
(Dark Dweller)
Little man you will come here with me
You destiny has been prescribed
Your mind and soul belong to the dark king
These childish thoughts are just a wasted time.
Part II - The Battle
(Phoenix Spirit)
Run little boy, do not let him succeed!
He is only after his own war and greed.
Your strength will provide you what you need to know
Even if he succeeds in capturing you now
(Dark Dweller)
Get over here, your soul is mine
Your miserable wretch you will not be divine!
I will destroy you as well
For the dragon’s voice will cast a spell.
Time has chosen you
Time has chosen you
Time has chosen you
Alone
(Phoenix Spirit)
I will use the last of my might to encase the boy
In a spell of protection is mine to deploy.
A wound you have struck to my side.
But it will repair itself in due time.
(Dark Dweller)
At last I have you in my hands
Your mind will be the one we have.
My honor will the master soon provide.
To know that I did not waste his ---.
Time has chosen you
Time has chosen you
Time has chosen you
Alone
(Phoenix Spirit)
Hang on there my son,
Your journey has just begun.
The point to all of this will be revealed
Soon before you discovered the world is not real.
Time has chosen you
Time has chosen you
Time has chosen you
Alone
Part III - The Get Away
(Dark Dweller)
Little man you will come here with me
You destiny has been prescribed
Your mind and soul belong to the dark king
These childish thoughts are just a wasted time.
(Phoenix Spirit)
The monster soon will escape.
To the boy’s capture, he will elate.
Once his knowledge is to be known
The world as we know will be no more

The Battle of the Minds
06:01

Intro:
Judge: “This tribunal will now come to order”
Part 1
Wind:
The prophecy that was long fore told
Sadly has come - to pass.
The known enemy, this dark man.
Who has entered our -our home land.
From his unknown knowledge…
Once presumed is he will deploy,
This world and us to desecration
He will seek - to destroy.
Fire:
Only the trails of the Universe
The maker, he will find.
To conjure the known creation.
Within the Battle of the Minds
A moment’s decision.
May destroy our on reality
And the echos of the voice pronounced
How clever will it be?
Earth
No, this must not occur
It should not pass!
We would cease…
And our home so vast.
So much of his effort,
So much of joy,
All come from the mind,
Of this little boy…
Wind:
The mysterious man can conjure,
A creation of his - own his mind,
A dark dweller from the depths
Disfigured from birth kind.
Sent to bridge the gap,
And bring the boy - to his hands,
We should stop this travesty,
So soon - If we can.
Fire
Only the trails of the Universe
The maker, he will find.
To combat his creation.
Within the Battle of the Minds
These two souls lost before,
And journeyed down separate paths
Will soon come together
After all this time, at long last…
Water:
Oh, the irony,
For the damage, that can possibly ensue.
We may be able to help the boy.
If that’s what we choose to do.
Count out the beats and the rays time,
Find the fading lights to match the circular rhymes.
Fire:
Only the trails of the Universe
The maker, he will find.
To conjure the known creation.
Within the Battle of the Minds
A moment’s decision.
May destroy our on reality
And the echos of the voice pronounced
How clever will it be?
Part 5
Judge:
“The clock is ticking elements!”
Wind
If we follow the rays of time,
We should find the beats -of the rhyme,
The boys power should then increase,
And the spawned creature should then cease.
To the seven spectral suns realms
Our journey we will take,
All the colors for the six codes
The combined power it would make!
Fire
Only the trails of the Universe
The maker, he will find.
To challenge his creation.
Within the Battle of the Minds
At our peril…
And our world may be destroyed
But it what the righteous journey
For the five of us to deploy.
Earth:
No, you fools!
This being can not to be.
Tame the void of this man.
Never to be shown his creed.
This our world will survive.
We only have such limited part.
I request a verdict…
before we depart.
Judge:
“The final selection has been made by the Jury”
Outro:
Fire
This has all been foretold.
By the holy book so long ago.
Whatever happens, what will show.
It will not for us, only the Universe to….
Know…..

A Whisper
07:32
|

Passing through the beauty of time
One boy’s world in a lone frame of mind
Cast astray by his own birthright
Must cascade through the land of night
Can you hear the calling of the song?
A musical journey once so often longed
Will you find the key to inspire the door?
Unlock the memory of what you see once more.
Hear the whisper spoken softly to you
A guiding voice so near and true
Letting your mind go to that familiar place
To bridge the gap to your saving grace.
Love for all that you have once lost
Can you find what you once forgot?
Fading lights away that must care
To empower love that once was there.
A whisper set between time
To join a memory of a lost mind,
Can you find it in you?
So soft, a hurt body torn by decay
Trapped in world that just won’t obey
Feelings of love, images of the past
A lost life that once was cast
Words spoken created worlds unknown
Beings divided by the master’s throne
Longing for the peace and serenity
The embrace of what is to be
Hear the whisper spoken softly to you
A guiding voice so near and true
Letting your mind go to that familiar place
To bridge the gap to your saving grace.
Love for all that you have once lost
Can you find what you once forgot?
Fading lights away that must care
To empower love that once was there.
A whisper - now calling you
To join a memory of a love that’s true,
Can you find it in you?
Mind, peace and body prevail
One soul who thoughts will not fail
Let yourself — just breathe—
Now that you have come so far from home
To realize that you are not alone.
Your potential is buried down deep inside
No longer will you listen to the lies.
A mother’s touch, a father’s care
Once lost will now - soon be there.
To guide your path, a hero reigns true
To find the world within the mind of you
Hear the whisper spoken softly to you
A guiding voice so near and true
Let your mind - go to that familiar place
To bridge the gap to your saving grace.
Love for all that you have once lost
You will find what you once forgot.
Fading away the lights that care
To empower love that once was there.
Oh it’s just a Whisper…

Dark Agony

Temptation! Revelation! How can I go on?
Anger! Frustration! Through the trail of tears.
Fighting! Lying! My soul inside is crying,
I must have! The Answer! To my destiny?
Far upon high the raging cliffs of this land.
Will the boy and man ever come to understand?
A journey of pain for a lone man to see.
Will soon be revealed in my Dark Agony!
Trying! Dying! My heart itself is mending,
Trap! Between! This world within - all of this pain.
Purpose! Reason! They come to know no season.
I must know! The ending! For all this to pass.
The youth is the key to complete the resolution,
How will it come to find - the solution?
Dark Dweller! Hurry bring this answer to me!
To release me from this Dark Agony!
Patience Virtue I have no reason to contribute,
Alone! Desperate! I alone am to blame.
Menace! Intimidation! I need this validation!
This world! Itself! Yes it must be destroyed!
Set upon the nature of war in this land.
The creatures of this world will come to understand.
The Elder, he himself will bring peace at last.
To release me from Dark Agony at last!
No more falling for this - ignorance and pain.
Each memory each minute - I soon regain.
I now see the reason - why I am here.
This Dark Agony will now disappear!

Judgement
(Lady of the Light)
Little Boy of such innocence.
Have you come this foreign land?
The truth that your minds, defines,
To be whole, to make your final stand.
Your journey that has been so long,
Between this world and where you belong.
Now stands before you this mysterious Man,
A sad life unfit, that he can't understand.
(David the Elder)
Have you two no - understanding?
Of the power that this boy controls?
A mind taunted, locked away!
His existence will destroy my soul!
(Dark Dweller)
Feeling hopeless, feeling scared…
To a love once he long lost dared….
No control, and so much pain…..
Washed away in a second’s gain…..
(Lady of the Light)
Dark Dweller, you can’t understand.
It’s world, beyond what we comprehend.
These two are more - of a kind.
Souls once lost at the same time.
This man was not fair to thee.
Conceived upon his own lust and greed.
So you do now realize?
Existence trapped between the line.
(Dark Dweller)
Created oblivious am I,
Out of the jealousy of your mind.
Now I challenge my creator, you,
To reveal to me what is my truth?
(David the Elder)
You once asked - remove your curse
Of the horror you were given at birth
You brought this boy through the beats of time
And now his power shall soon be mine!
(Lady of Light)
All you know - and all you will see…
It what was meant, and is to be,
Of all the mysteries through this young boy’s fate
Will be revealed at the departing gate.
All you see, and now all you feel…
The logic will be now be revealed,
Let yourself recognize the joined pain.
For one’s loss, now so will gain.
-
(The Boy)
The decision to fight has come this time.
Don’t tell me this world isn’t mine!
For the creatures that I so choose.
Is a memory of love for all of you.
Feelings are naught for all despair,
I have always loved, I will always care.
If through these ideas, harm has to pass.
Then let these thoughts no longer will last.
(David the Elder)
Naive little boy,
Such a thing, that you believe!
As you create the world
Which you alone, have conceived!
(Dark Dweller)
No! You will leave this child alone!
Abandoned your lust to destroy his home!
I was wrong to follow your evil lies!
It was you who are deceived by your own eyes!
(David the Elder)
All I that know, and all that I feel.
This place is a world just can’t be real!
There must be a reason, there must be rhyme!
To this nightmare I have endured inside!
All that I know, my dark dweller son!
For you are weaker, now that you are done!
Destroy your will I when I speak!
Now to die, along side the meek!
A Part of Myself
(Dark Dweller)
Father,
Evil is not your way!
Remember your true self!
Remember the day!
Your own innocence..
Should is more than what it seems .
These cosmetic rules are more
than just a child's dream!
(The Boy)
I feel your hands
between my flesh
You are me,
after my death!
Now it becomes so clear!
How could I’ve been so blind!
You are what lost
When I first died!
Grande Finale
(Lady of the Light)
In your youth…
You crossed over to - this plane.
But part of you still remained
And carried out through-out his days.
Let go the pain….
The Dark Dweller’s love, has won!
His role was not in be ignored!
He has made this world both of yours!
(David the Elder)
I was so alone,
Inside a tormented soul!
I felt broken - so many times!
And my ‘peace’ alone within my mind!
(The Boy)
All my lonely nights.
Safe from lack of light.
My world, I don’t need it no more.
I am ready to go home, and close…
….the door!
(Lady of Light)
Light and Truth, have been revealed!
Let the cloak descend, to show you are friends.
Young and Elder now fade away
And turn into David the Grey
