lyrics

Was looking back through an hour glass
In all the centuries that past
And saw the sand change and collapse
As our world's turning over
In a dark sphere

Was looking back in sphericals
of small worlds lighting up
Through all the things I've said and done
Once wonder filled, these eyes are done
From dreams that slowly reappear
A gentle glow that once was near
Is now a fading distant sound
I hear in riddles all around

Take me higher
Above the cold air
Far gone out there
Beyond all the glare

Take these eyes back to the end
Before motions of dark began
In this bright sphere watching suns
Turning into faded ones

From cold fires that burnt the clouds
Enough to let a star come out
Shouts a story that's untold
And future plans to unfold
The world's turn leads everything
Back to where it became
The small light that grew so large
Yet lit this world up with dark

Take me higher
Above the cold air
Far gone out there
Beyond all the glare

Take these eyes back to the end
Before motions of dark began
In this bright sphere watching suns
Turning into faded ones, oh

Take me higher
Above the cold air, yeah
Far gone out there
Beyond all the glare
In a dark sphere

about

Spaceland Albany, New York

Spaceland is made of three brothers. They base their name and musical imagery from the book Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions, which depicts a character who travels to dimensions that are thought to be impossible. Based on this philosophy, the band strives to create worlds in their lyrics and music to take hold of imagination and emotion in the listener to see reality beyond a flat existence. ... more
