ECHOES AND SIGNALS
| Our home, Earth, drifts between two celestial forces—Mars and Venus—a delicate balance that mirrors the essence of our human fate: to exist between two archetypal poles. The great myths tell of a time when an undivided wholeness was sundered in two—heaven torn from earth, spirit cast apart from matter. Separation is the very heartbeat of consciousness: the art of measure, the drawing of borders, the carving of space from the formless void. It is how we wrestle meaning from chaos, how we shape the unshaped. The alchemists called it the great work upon prima materia—the first substance, raw and infinite, awaiting transformation. |
I - SEPARATION
This is where I stand
This is where I find myself
Alone inside the storm
I remember trying to be God
I’ve had a dream
That was so real
I separate,
I draw the line between
Life and death
I peer beyond the grave
Forever always waits for us
This is where we go
This is where we fly so fast
We’re nothing but the waves
In the ocean of eternal changes
We're drifting like leaves on the tide
The cold embrace of fear
Is crawling on my skin
Each night, I plead to hear
A voice that commands me.

II - ISOLATION
Do you hear the silence of eternal space?
And do you see the light from dying stars?
And do you think that we’re alone in this world?
I can feel your pain
I see it in your eyes
I hear the words unspoken
We’re asleep
And don’t want to wake up from nightmares
Trapped amidst the mirrors, we are lost and dream that
We’re not alone in this world
I can feel your pain
I see it in your eyes
I hear the words unspoken
So it goes - we’re trapped inside but doors are open
There are no walls but we stand still and fear to move on
We are afraid to break our prison
And do you see the light from dying stars?
And do you think that we’re alone in this world?
I can feel your pain
I see it in your eyes
I hear the words unspoken
We’re asleep
And don’t want to wake up from nightmares
Trapped amidst the mirrors, we are lost and dream that
We’re not alone in this world
I can feel your pain
I see it in your eyes
I hear the words unspoken
So it goes - we’re trapped inside but doors are open
There are no walls but we stand still and fear to move on
We are afraid to break our prison
III - MARS
The fire burns above the clouds
Piercing our hearts and souls
And we hear screams
And we hear prayers
For shattered lives and dreams destroyed
The sacred vow we held
Is burning to the ground
Is turning upside down
We dream about the dead
They say that we are damned
Doomed to create only to destroy
This fire burns forevermore
Iron flows in our veins
And we hear screams
And prayers plead
But the march of Mars still never ends
Piercing our hearts and souls
And we hear screams
And we hear prayers
For shattered lives and dreams destroyed
The sacred vow we held
Is burning to the ground
Is turning upside down
We dream about the dead
They say that we are damned
Doomed to create only to destroy
This fire burns forevermore
Iron flows in our veins
And we hear screams
And prayers plead
But the march of Mars still never ends
IV - VENUS
She returns
Giving us a hope
Quenching burning fire
Calming storms
She hides
But with morning rays, she comes
She returns
Witnessing our fall
Surveying the wreckage
Mending souls
When hope is lost
We’re gazing at the skies above us
Whispering words without a sound
“Please bring us light
Please bring back peace and love to this world
Give a sign of your return.
Give us hope
Giving us a hope
Quenching burning fire
Calming storms
She hides
But with morning rays, she comes
She returns
Witnessing our fall
Surveying the wreckage
Mending souls
When hope is lost
We’re gazing at the skies above us
Whispering words without a sound
“Please bring us light
Please bring back peace and love to this world
Give a sign of your return.
Give us hope
