lyrics

Beyond a. Sent Through The Morning (M. Hunt)

Outward to the sight
Sent through the morning
Here and yet again
Now I can see
Onward to the light
Step now to the warning
Dance in refrain
So now decree
Striding effervescence
Lead to the surface
Asking for another
Way to the sight
Catching the glitter
Glancing with purpose
Dancing to the summer
Can we take flight

Sink to the future
Stable in falling
Archival insight an
Impending thought
Onward to the light
Step now to the warning
Dance in refrain
So now decree

Striding effervescence
Lead to the surface
Asking for another
Way to the sight

Catching the glitter
Glancing with purpose
Dancing to the summer
Can we take flight

Beyond b. Sharkflight (J.C. Hamill)

Deep in the pool watch out for sharks
They will attack you just for a lark
It maybe best if you play dead
That way they can’t get inside your head
They may not like a jellyfish
I don’t think jelly is their favourite dish
So be observant look for clues
Or all that’s left of you will be your shoes!

We must have water to swim away
We swim with the sharks at our side
With a deep understanding that every day
We might have to swim for our lives!
Everyone knows that sharks don’t ever sleep
They swim so deep, they never sleep
And where the treasure is they lie in wait
Just hoping we will take the bait

So be observant look for clues
And watch out as it starts to make its move
Cos when it has you in its sights
It may just take you with a single bite

We must be ready to be hurt
But if we are hurt we’ll heal
Our quickening senses keep us alert
To the glint in their teeth of steel

Strive, fight we must
When we're alive, before we are dust
We can defeat them snatching the victory
Look to the trees that's what we'll become
Each day we try to reach for the sun

Flight of the seagull
Flight of the eagle
Flight of the raven
Flight of the albatross

Fight of the people
Fighting for freedom
All gods are craven
Until the line is crossed

Rewrite the story
Give them the glory
They all deserve to
Have all their names in lights

We are the ones who
Give up the power to
Ones who observe who’re
Willing to stand and fight

Our to effervescent tides
Out to welcome all with arms open wide
Come home
To fight no more
It’s peaceful here

Search in the shadows (Leafy and golden)
Down in the hollow (You‘ll find the meaningful)
All that you borrowed (You were beholden)
Now you must follow (Till it’s repaid in full)
Look to the distance (Life is unfolding)
Seasons are changing (Time will exert its pull)

All that you borrowed must be repaid
Or time will invoke its revenge
The words that you said and the promises made
Are the permanent message you send

Beyond c. Dawn (J.C. Hamill)

Green shoots are forming, new hope is here
The earth is warming, the sky is clear
New days are dawning, new hope is here
The power of sunlight, movement and change
Here, here, speak of the dreams that you want to see

We must try to create them, bring them into being
Bring them to life, bring them to life

Light is returning we feel renewed
All we've been learning, the demons we slew
The battles we fought, just to get to the truth
You stand with me, I'll stand with you
Speak of the dreams that we want to see
We must try to create them, bring them into being
We can face what we have to, standing together
Stronger together

Beyond d. The Other Side (J.C. Hamill)

He'll carry you across the great divide
The ferry man will take you to the other side
Those souls whose journey isn't yet completed
He will make a bargain that can never be repeated

Once you step inside the boat
Once you're all safely afloat

He will call you out on all your misdemeanours
All your enemies your debtors and your desperate cheaters

This is your reward if you can resist
The siren calling you to crash into the cliffs

Close your ears when the devil rings his bell
His hollow laugh will call you on the road to hell

It's then you'll realise that the race is lost
You've indulged yourself now you must count the cost

Ignoring the lessons in angelic books
And all the advice that you never took

Beyond e. Flight (J.C. Hamill)

You will regret then things that you never did
Times you missed the girls that you never kissed
All of your memories turn into water
Evaporating watching your world shaking

Flight of the seagull
Flight of the eagle
Flight of the raven
Flight of the albatross

Roads that were long and roads that were wrong and
Roads that led nowhere, roads that you never crossed
Listening for shadows, writing on windows
Saving the changes, seeing the tables turned

Lighting the darkness, composed and conscious
Building the bridges, to all the bridges burned
Here is your victory, your valedictory
Here is your trophy, here is the praise you've earned

Peace, peace at last, no more need to impress, just a knowing you did your best
You gave your all, all you had, time now to rest
