blue sky volcano - lyrics by Peter Coyle blue sky volcano heart wrenched out running through the forest with nowhere to go lost in a raincloud flowers of dark nostalgia running out of luck but i won’t stop touching wonder sailing colours the mirrors of electric aromas soaring through the hourglass i knew that there was something crushing the hidden stash the lifeblood of all illusion we’re the prisoners behind the bars the martyrs with broken feathers drinking up the words before they’re lost blue sky volcano heart wrenched out running through the forest with nowhere to go lost in a raincloud flowers of dark nostalgia running out of luck but i won’t stop touching wonder sailing colours the exile and the song sheet staring out staring out into space knowing nothing nothing will change the dreamscapes and the dangers circling round racing through the stars the impulse collapsing with us blue sky volcano running through the forest with nowhere to go

invisible threads - lyrics by Peter Coyle something in you hurts something in you burns standing still in stress the rituals in your head the words are almost dead all of it unsaid the heartbeat of the mountains holding up the sky the sound of the silence the stories of our lives trying to cut loose smokescreen on the move the fever pitch of touch none of it is real shipwrecked in a storm rootless to the core the heartbeat of the mountains holding up the sky the sound of the silence the stories of our lives something meaningful something real something meaningful something real kaleidoscope of loss getting all mixed up all the bets are off now it’s time to learn move forward on the curve to learn how to trust the heartbeat of the mountains holding up the sky the sound of the silence the stories of our lives the heartbeat of the mountains holding up the sky the sound of the silence the stories of our lives the stories of our lives something meaningful something real
