True Adventures Lyrics
Turgid calls the winter charge
True adventures of awaking hearts
Nights are overwhelmed by gloom
We will see foxes and the moon
Valleys drop, mountains rise
Lift your head, brave the skies
All of the forgotten names
Lakes are forming on the pockets of your brain
And there in the distant glow
A shadow, one shadow
At once so strong and weak
In the sunken lines they speak
You think it's gone, my friend
But it comes back again
Senescence or senility
How long until you sleep?
Discarded for all it's worth
Now it's quiet under this fresh earth
Valleys drop, mountains rise
Lift your head, brave the skies
You think it's gone, my friend
But it comes back again
And there is a final cry
A whimper and a sigh
And what was fast is slow
And what was brass is gold
Valleys drop, mountains rise
Lift your head, brave the skies
You think it's gone, my friend
But it comes back again
You think it's gone, my friend
But it comes back again
True adventures of awaking hearts
Nights are overwhelmed by gloom
We will see foxes and the moon
Lift your head, brave the skies
All of the forgotten names
Lakes are forming on the pockets of your brain
A shadow, one shadow
At once so strong and weak
In the sunken lines they speak
But it comes back again
How long until you sleep?
Discarded for all it's worth
Now it's quiet under this fresh earth
Lift your head, brave the skies
But it comes back again
A whimper and a sigh
And what was fast is slow
And what was brass is gold
Lift your head, brave the skies
But it comes back again
But it comes back again

I am sure a lot of these lyrics are wrong. I like this song very much. Seems to me, to be about dreams or those peaceful moments before you fall asleep, when you get lost in thought.
I believe this relates to the permanence of the earth, the eternity of the spirit, thus when someone close to you dies they might well be watching over you. I believe it's about things we couldn't even begin to fully understand or even imagine properly in such a concrete sense as words.
