Empyrean Views - Echolyn

They found the steppe and sang its song

Some settled in or just moved along

In isles between the markers they go

On the left rose a sign that the end was near

It said, «Repent or burn and thank God it’s HERE!»

2001 resurrected dead on planet Jupiter!

(Pre-Chorus)

Everyone’s purchased a place to go

With the clearest view and the bargain low

The buildings end here where the walls crumble down

They usher in the isles of stones between the bones and places they’ve travelled

The train ignites across the view

The faces blur and all of you rocket by

Rocket by with places to go

Aeronautic distant diamonds burst

Like morning stellar universe

Leaving little scars in the great blue sky

Find your way;

one step further, one step further

Walking into the sun where the day had begun

They moved past the routine and fear, along a coast of never knowing

Well, have they fallen off the edge of the world?

Or did the sea swell up to swat every one of them away?

There’s a longing in those hearts that calls

It calls for a destination

We call to the destination

It calls for a destination

Engage for the destination

The sky is a changing window

A firmament that cuts off empyrean views of light and wheels of fire

The Sun and Moon and Stars are markers

Finding our way through impermanence

And all they have is one step further, finding a way, our way

The places they’ve gone, that we’ve been, and we’ll go
