The Wolf Sky
THE CIRCLE SONG The East the air the sword the mind The gate that leaves the night behind
The North the sun the flame the fire The gateway to our souls’ desire
The West the womb the water’s flow The gateway to the world below
The South the star the silent Earth The gateway to our souls’ rebirth
(This song casts circle in the Southern hemisphere. For Northern hemisphere, switch Fire to South, and Earth to North.)
THE WOLF SKY
I lay upon the hill That lay beneath the wolf sky I felt the dark clouds forming An omen apparition And with the thunder rolling A howl preceded the storm
We lay within the bird That lay beneath the Wolf Sky We lay within its wing and We felt the bird within us And with the thunder rolling We left the ground for the sky
We drank the dark clouds deeper And ran the wild moon hunting Alive with fur and feather As omen apparition We left the moon suspended And leapt back onto the ground
We lay upon the hill That lay beneath the Wolf Sky We felt the dark clouds forming An omen apparition And with the thunder rolling A howl preceded the storm We lay beneath the wolf sky
OBLIVION
Who is whispering behind the veil? I cannot see her face But I know that it is pale I cannot see her lips But I know I want to kiss them And when she calls my name I will no longer resist them
Who is whispering behind the veil? I cannot see her face But I know that it is pale She calls me to let go To leave this damaged world I’m living in To feel it slip away To taste the sweetness of oblivion
Amidst the roar of thunder Hear me call you under Hear me call you under Do you hear me call you under? My fingers long to feel you Caress you, reveal you Undress your soul and steal you Away
Who is whispering behind the veil I long to see her face But I fear that I will fail To look into her eyes To see my spirit splinter To feel my blood run cold To see the dead of winter
And with the roar of thunder Hear me call you under Hear me call you under Do you hear me call you under? And there is no denying All of life is dieing And still I hear you crying Not now
SHE DANCED ALONE UPON THE WAVES
She danced alone upon the waves Alone upon the water Alone upon the water She took the north wind by the tail Caressed it till She felt the serpent scale He coiled around Her limbs divine Her dance as wild as fire Her dance as wild as fire She had created sea from sky And knew Her lover loved Her movements
Once She divided the sky from the ocean All of creation was then set in motion Becoming dove upon the sea She laid the egg that held eternity
The serpent spiralled ‘round its form And cradled in His magic Cradled in His magic The sacred vessel soon grew warm And split to open all existence
Out of it tumbles the Earth and Her creatures Rivers and mountains and forests and beaches Out of it Sun Out of it Moon She danced alone upon the waves And born of chaos was existence Born of chaos was existence.
HALF LIFE
It’s not like I want it back again It’s not like I want the sky to open And rain down in visions of black again But now that the sun has finally broken through There’s not a lot I can do There’s not a lot I can do The sky is perfectly blue
The wind comes, whips the trees bare again The wind comes, exposing secrets of the form Part of me wants to be there again Restless, naked, howling for the dawn I’m not invoking a storm I’m not invoking a storm The air is perfectly warm
It’s not like I want it back again Chaos can find another lover It’s not like I’m wearing all black again The days come sweet, but are they cutting through? There’s not a lot I can do There’s not a lot I can do The sky is perfectly blue
If it’s not love then make it pain Not some sort of Half-Life I can’t explain And if it’s peace then make it real Not this sort of numbness that I cannot feel Take all my joy but leave me my fears This sort of Half- Life bores me to tears So bring me rapture and bring me bliss Or take it all away but don’t leave me this
It’s not like I want it back again It’s not like I want my heart ripped open In some sort of vicious attack again But now that the sun has finally broken through There’s not a lot I can do There’s not a lot I can do The sky is perfectly blue.
THE FALL
I fall, I fall Into the darkest hole I fall
And I move Move as though my skin were scales As though the soil were water And I was the wave As though the soil were water And everywhere the sapphire sea Was life, was life was life And the ocean was singing to me
I fall, I fall Into the darkest hole I fall
And I move Move as though the sky and sea Were no longer separate And the waves that wash over me Were no longer separate And the waves that wash over me Were alive alive alive with a force that I cannot see
I fall, I fall Into the darkest hole, I fall
And I move Any way I want to move As though my fingers were feathers And I could fly to the moon As though my fingers were feathers And everywhere I looked was night And my eyes, my eyes, my eyes They could see where there was no light
CREATOR DESTROYER
From the depth of the forest she will find you She will drag you up and call you into being She will lay her naked body on the debris She will howl until her spirit Overruns the city
She will rise up through the cracks between the pavements She will buckle train lines, bridges all collapsing And the towers of the mighty become frail As she opens up her belly to devour.
Come and take over Creator Destroyer Come and take over
She will pour her molten core upon the runways She will leave her rusting hulls upon the shoreline She will swallow up the iron that was stolen She will vomit up the plastic and the poison Her oceans will make islands of the mainland Her tendrils will be wrapped around the cables And the buried bones of buildings will lie vacant As she feeds upon the ribcage of forever, forever
Come and take over Creator Destroyer Come and take over
DARK WINGS
I’m going down Down into soil I’m going down Dark wings will guide me
I know the way For I have been there So many times I cannot count them
And though I know I will return when The deed is done When the seed is growing
My heart is scared My limbs are shaking It seems to cruel To have to do this
Over and over Over and over Why can’t I find some secret passage? To take me there Without the pain My midnight wings Beating in beauty
My conscious mind My core of wisdom Honours the dark essential journey But when I’m crying When I’m crying It feels so hard Hard to remember
I’m going down Down into soil I’m going down Dark wings will guide me
FIREHORSE As fleeting and bright as the dawn And lately I’m feeling that I’m A shape shifter wearing this form
Earth is the ground beneath my feet Water the blood that’s flowing though me Air is the sky I run beneath Fire the will that keeps me running
Witness the sky The seasons that ceaselessly turn The planets that rise and then fall The stars that continue to burn
The soul at my centre is wild A horse than can never be tamed I knew this when I was a child I’m learning it over again
Earth is the ground beneath my feet Water the blood that’s; flowing through me Air is the sky I run beneath Fire the will that keeps me running Through the storm Through the storm Magic is born of Love
EVOLUTION
It’s started over It’s started over Just when you think it’s finished It’s started over Just when you think we’ve got some angle on it Just when you think we’ve somehow grown with evolution
Then all the fighting Then all the fighting Highlighting difference when we should be uniting Just when you think the world was growing wiser Just when you think that love had offered a solution
My heart is crying My heart is crying Witnessing visions of the innocent dieing I can’t believe we’re ever born this vicious Only a damaged heart could carry such pollution
What are we learning? What are we learning? The past may disappear but It keeps returning Just when you think the battle’s finally over Just when you think that love had caused a revolution
It’s started over It’s started over Just when you think it’s finished It’s started over Just when you think we’ve got some angle on it Just when you think we’d somehow grown with evolution Somehow grown with evolution
THE WINDOW
Calling Something is calling Through cracks of daylight Something is calling If I If I don’t’ close my eyes Then I won’t see it And it won’t call me and question
What do you see at the window? What is light, what is shadow? What is past, what is yet to be? What is complete? And what has all gone wrong?
Lately I don’t like sleeping I’m waking tired I’m waking tired If I If I don’t close my eyes Then I won’t see it And it won’t call me And question
THE EARTH IS STILL PART OF THE SKY
Call down a ray of light Into my crying heart My love, the angels are calling us Somehow I feel it’s much too soon to part Lay down your sword My heart is open A tender word From lover, to lover Needs to be spoken
Call down a ray of light Into my crying eyes Distance is just an illusion I have held on to For far too long now I’m letting go I long to fly The Earth is still part of the Sky And this is bigger, so much bigger Than you or I
ELEMENTAL CHANT
Earth Air Fire and Water
Earth Air Fire and Water I stand at the centre and acknowledge each quarter The Earth is my mother And I know as Her daughter That the circle extends to the stars and goes on forever
