Ticonderoga - you've bled too long
Now you're all surrounded, by the sharks and the fawns
I've been all winter here, yet I've been strong
I've been strong
An old voice falsifies:
'Well I've lived inside these decks for so many years
And I, I've slept and dreamt of sadness and thee
And I won't fear what you call Death tonight
Tonight'
Oh Ticonderoga, we both sing our songs
While their shattered young bodies sleep between the pine
And on the peninsula, the righteous mob will sing along
Sing along
'On this earthen hell beside you I belong
Living a life amok, obscene, that I know you will not be here long
And the fevers lead to odious dreams, and I've been forewarned
I've been forewarned
That the light upon my decks
Is going to be with me once more'
Once more and we'll light it
Once more and we'll light it
Once more and we'll light it
Once more and we'll light it
Once more and we'll light it
Once more and we'll light it
Once more and we'll light
We'll light it all
We'll light it all tonight
We'll light it all
We'll light it all, oh tonight
Oh we'll light it all
We'll light it all
We'll light it all tonight
We'll light it all
We'll light it all
We'll light it all tonight
We'll light it all

You came to me like a fading scene
All the past remained in a fog
In four weeks we were gone, and all our friends they feigned alarm
In this car we ran from our lives
For sometimes you know you feel criminal
Like you're fading into someone all used up, weak and small
All the fortunate, the millions, all alike, will cry
Survive, survive, survive
You came along too late
To figure all my mistakes
Who knows why we began to hate all the cracks in our minds
It's a deadly refrain, for all this fear is self-contained
From time-to-time we'll run for our lives
For sometimes you know that this feels criminal
Like you're fading into someone all used up, weak and small
All the fortunate, the millions all alike will cry
Survive

Winter's Dream

You heard the call and in failing light
We walked alone into the shade of the night
A simple elegy to the fading scene
We'll meet again under the Resting Tree
We drift, we're drifting now unto delight
These hidden voices do reveal insight
Long lost, forgotten in the daily stream
We'll worship them under the Resting Tree
Leaves amongst us, though we share this ground
Unknown to others yet free from doubt
I cast my eyes again to the canopy
A morning glimpse of light resolves on the Resting Tree
A bolt of colour etched into my mind
Unknown faces, yet I'm not resigned
We woke up out of our Winter's Dream
Our hands entwined under the Resting Tree
Oh the Resting Tree - where we made our vows
We made our presence felt beyond redoubt
We woke up out of our Winter's Dream
A dissolving thread of light still caresses me
It still caresses me
It still caresses me
We woke up out
We woke up out of our Winter's Dream
