From the sky Through the hole She fell The great creatures In the sea they dwell By his hand By his sacrifice Grain of sand Seed of life Breath of life for his sacrifice Deep below Dive beneath the waves Earth from water Offering is made
2.
Rise towards the sky Rest your head among the stars, the Ageless Ones Eternal forest Forged in ice, fog, and darkness Swallow light, consume the heartless Nature's might, dense and ruthless Failing mind, prey to hubris Call out my name to draw me near Reach for my soul, twisted by fear
3.
Gift of Fire 06:41
Burning deep within the soul Let it go, relinquish control Pushing forward Never looking back Reach the beyond As the rivers flow With the stars to guide Where the spirits roam The heart will never die The gift of the morning sun All of life - we exist as one Feel the heartbeat Let it be your drum Honour the way Stand strong, face the coming storm Sing your song, should your end draw near Push aside fear Walk the sacred path Reach the beyond

Gehenna Gate 05:51
Innocence Stolen dream Beat your drums and rattles To mask their screams Blackened wings outstretched Iron hands receive Gaping, fiery breast Rendered flesh to feed Cursed lands Sinners weep In the mountain's shadow The dragons sleep And in the moment of dying light the fires erupted, splitting the night And those resigned to their fate slowly walked through gehenna gate
6.
Beneath the emerald sky Whispers upon the breeze Recite the story, relay the dream Stand alone seeking glory the endless journey snares and consumes Break away Seal the eye, walk in darkness Forgotten senses. Blind and confused Light the way Awaken by the storm Adrift upon the sea Witness the power, humbled and free

about

Recorded at Wolf Lake Studios with Mike Bond at the helm (Loviatar, Norilsk, Arms of the Girl), Earth from Water explores various spiritual concepts, highlighting the perseverance of the human spirit and the importance of humility, self-sacrifice, and ability to submit and be open to perceive the teachings of the natural world. This is juxtaposed with cautions of allowing our individual egos to reign unfettered.
