1. SOPHIA

When life has slipped behind this isolation
Cruelty and hatred have become
The cause of those whose eyes are full of wanting
The truth will still abandon none...
So you must carry this light into the darkness
You shall be a star unto the night
You will find hope alive among the hopeless
That is your purpose to this life

The lips draw words
And hands find actions
Still there is more within one heart
And to the silence, will you answer?
Before the chaos, will you come?

Do not injustice to another
Defend the weak & innocent
May truth & honor always guide you
Let courage find a life within
Stand up when no one else is willing
Act not in anger or in spite
Be to this world as a perfect knight
Even if it means your life...

Here I am,
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here I am
Thy will be done
Sancta Sophia
Peace is born to your victory
Athena Sophia
How can I hope to live... what I cannot dream?

You cannot map the ways of divinity......
This much is known...
Only unto God

And through these doubts
And through your confusion
Know that you are chosen to this fight
Look to find a soul filled with compassion
Look to see see a living source of light

Do not injustice to another
Defend the weak and innocent
Let truth and honor always guide you
Let courage find a life within
Stand up when no one else is willing
Act not in hatred or in spite
Be to this world as a perfect knight
Even if it means your life...

Here I am,
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here I am
Thy will be done
Sancta Sophia
Peace is born to your victory
Athena Sophia
How can I hope to be... what I can't believe...

The human animal is a beautiful and terrible creature,
Capable of limitless compassion and unfathomable cruelty.
If you wish to find that which becomes the dividing line Between
Mankind and other biological classifications, it rests not In
Brain size, dominance, or even emotional capability. It Lies within
The innate capacity for human beings to reflect on their Actions,
And show regret. It is most certainly the ability to Empathize that gives
Them their position. All mammals understand love and affection, but
Only man shows a propensity to place himself into the shoes Of another life-form. Losing this capability, among Individuals of the species,
Reduces them below their much heralded position,
And readies the climate for the likely fall of man.
A fall from grace.

Do not injustice to another
Defend the weak & innocent
Let truth & honor always guide you
Let courage find a life within
Stand up when no one else is willing
Act not in hatred or in spite
Be to this world as a perfect knight
Even if it means your life...

Here I am,
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here I am
Thy will be done
Sancta Sophia
Peace is born to your victory
Athena Sophia
How can I hope to find what I cannot see?
Here I am,
Alive among the injured and the dead
Here I am
Thy will be done
Sancta Sophia
Peace is born to your victory
Hagia Sophia
How can I hope be, what's inside of me?

3. TITAN

A soul of pure mechanics
A sentinel to this edge
Battle bruised and filled with holes
Last living to protect...
Burning chrome and steel becomes
Something more alive
That to destruction so consigned
Believing will survive

Look up now child
To the sky
And hear the titans
Fearless cry
For you, these mortals
Now become
An offering to life

And all the men
Who will not die
Even though
They give there lives
Return to us
And in our hearts and minds-
As heroes... will survive

Engines burn in glowing rage
High above the clouds
Where bullets reign,
And metal bleeds
As smoke comes streaking out

Now limping back sad victory
Its wings are losing flight
And down it goes
This fireball-
Its etched into my mind !

Look up now child
To the sky
And hear the titans
Fateful cry
For you, these mortals
Now become
An offering to life

And all the men
Who will not die
Even though
They give there lives
Return to us
And in our hearts and minds-
As heroes... will survive

5. ADRIFT

I lost sight of the raging waters
Below the surface where i lay
Fractures slip like ghosting fish
Below my fingertips
I watched the days in proud procession
Upon the icy pools above
And seen the stars like distant fires
That follow each day through

Cold dawn in the world that i built
Cold water and chiseled stone
Maybe time will one day find me
Maybe then I'll get back home
Cold dusk in a world that I made
My memories are all I know
So if you're searching, I'm still waiting
Where is time to bring me home

I drew regret with a dull blue pencil
Deep beneath the danger mark
It left me here below the ocean
Below the wreckage of my heart
And now I breathe this cold dead water
No time to give what others steal
No song of life to make things better
No warmth in love for me to feel

Cold dawn
Waiting for the night to come
