His Name Was Dusk - A Song for Daisy I fly a starship Across the universe divide Her name is Daisy And she’s big beautiful and wise And in my mind she can do most anything and she does This is a song I wrote for Daisy Can’t you tell? This is a song for Daisy I hope it finds her well She makes her changes And I follow suit To face the dangers I gotta reboot And with my mind She can do most anything And she does This is a song I wrote for Daisy Can’t you tell? This is a song for Daisy I hope it finds her well Packages delivered and we turn back Must’ve been en route we got here so fast Never let ‘em know the truth how we got the knack Out of the Blue and back into the blackest depths of space With my Daisy Dear I hope it finds her well

The first time I heard the moon calling my name I ran all night and knew the taste of the change And I woke alone surrounded by wolves I didn’t look the same But the wolves knew me I didn’t know my name but the wolves knew me I couldn’t hold my shape but the wolves knew me I didn’t know myself but the wolves knew me The first time I heard her tune I couldn’t see through the pain It was only then I knew that I wasn’t the same When I woke alone surrounded by wolves I didn’t look the same But the wolves knew me I didn’t know my name but the wolves knew me I couldn’t hold my shape but the wolves knew me I didn’t know myself but the wolves knew me Now when she sings I know the tune The refrain remains, but the song has changed Since I woke alone surrounded by wolves But now I know the wolves Like the wolves knew me I didn’t know my name till the wolves knew me I couldn’t hold my shape till the wolves knew me I didn’t know myself but till wolves knew me

I had a dream that everything changed. The dreamers told me that I was being played. So I looked to the sun with the wind in my sails. Cause at the end of the day you’ve gotta balance the scales. We’ve all got dreams and our own ships to sail We’ve all got lives, but they end It never fails We’ve all got time and our own cliffs to scale And we’ve all got to balance those scales KageOna said you gotta make that sacrifice fight for your rights run the rest of your life I met a man his name was Trash his words were wise He told me I was the sonic Device It may be that I found my place, I guess some dreams are just meant to be. Belle may swear that there’s no sound in space, But I reckon that’s cause space ain’t never heard of me. Speaking to the wolf she told me of the dark (She said) speaking to this man is breaking my heart The lady from silver she spared no detail and told me that she'd helped me balance the scales I woke in silence alone upon my rig a bitter fate till I opened up my ship and i saw Belle knew we would prevail and send them straight to hell just to balance the scales KageOna said you gotta make that sacrifice fight for your rights run the rest of your life I met a man his name was Trash his words were wise He told me I was the sonic Device It may be that I found my place, I guess some dreams are just meant to be. Belle may swear that there’s no sound in space, But I reckon that’s cause space ain’t never heard of me.

I used to think it was lonesome out in space. Turns out it's lonesome and it's cold. After a drink and staring darkness in the face I found that doubt was taking hold. Embrace the cold cause it's lonesome out in space And let the cold embrace of darkness take you home. When at the brink we often fall from grace All while our souls are bought and sold And as we sink or move around from place to place I found that doubt was getting old Embrace the cold cause it's lonesome out in space And let the cold embrace of darkness take you home. I used to shrink from that cold embrace Thinking I’d never find my home Seer didn’t blink as she looked me in the face Told me I could make it up as I go Embrace the cold cause it's lonesome out in space And let the cold embrace of darkness take you home.

What is a soul now if it isn’t belief? What’s in the heart of a tulpa, if there is not in between? What’s in a name? Is it the same as the things we are beneath? What’s in a picture of five children if those children never meet? I keep on hoping could it all have been a joke I keep on asking what would happen if miranda never woke It’s in a very old photo of 5 children that they found In caliban’s apartment when they tried to shut him down Ever since cloudnet got started at imposing it’s rule Sure the trains they run on time, but the times they have been cruel What is a soul now if it isn’t belief? What’s in the heart of a tulpa, if there is not in between? What’s in a name? Is it the same as the things we are beneath? What’s in a picture of five children if those children never meet? Catalyst labs has artifacts and to this day they still survive Just cause Miranda drank some water that made poor young donald die And now parker’s been cursed, Nes’s altered the timeline Raven and Trash they are both Tulpas and their memories are lies They say Cassies a i well that really divides Do it for Donald and Miranda Jessia Michael and for clyde What is a soul now if it isn’t belief? What’s in the heart of a tulpa, if there is not in between? What’s in a name? Is it the same as the things we are beneath? What’s in a picture of five children if those children never meet? What’s in a picture of five children if those children never meet? What’s in a picture of five children if they just met in a dream? What is a soul now if it isn’t belief? What’s in the heart of a tulpa, if there is not in between? What’s in a name? Is it the same as the things we are beneath? What’s in a picture of five children if those children never meet? But for the ratings and cause there’s children in the stands, I won’t speak from my heart and say fuck Catalyst Labs.

The Oogaloth 03:03
Fear filled veins will take the strain Long as Chaos tightly grips those reigns And leads us through the fray we’ve naught to fear We’ve naught to fear Pylons on as they Pile on The Ugolotoh will die ‘fore dawn Breaks on this I’d bet my Daisy Dear My Daisy dear, Don’t shed a tear You clear my slate and you bend an ear The soulforge chose me guess you can’t account for taste, huh! My Daisy dear, no need to fear You steer us straight when I disappear Your dear Dunc Dreamwalks in and out of outer space, huh! As we fight to make it die All through the night it’s fiendish cries And until dawns first light we’ll persevere Till up it rises lost in flight I squared that bastard in my sights And shot him from the sky, My Daisy Dear My Daisy dear, Don’t shed a tear You clear my slate and you bend an ear The soulforge called me guess you can’t account for taste, huh! My Daisy dear, no need to fear You steer us straight when I disappear Your dear Dunc Dreamwalks in and out of outer space, huh! Stunned the Beast it fell beneath it Dwell The Dreamwalkers who keep this Realm To teach this monster who to fear And as the beast descended All the dreamwakers they went in swingin’ To teach this Far Realms brute his end was near My Daisy dear, Don’t shed a tear You clear my slate and you bend an ear The soulforge called me guess you can’t account for taste, huh! My Daisy dear, no need to fear You steer us straight when I disappear Your dear Dunc Dreamwalks in and out of outer space, huh!

Fine Alone 03:08
On a backwater planet I don’t know the name of Because some company wrote it off You can find midst the garbage Smack dab in the center A goblin who don’t know he’s lost And he’ll give you a haircut And the shirt right off his back Cause he really doesn’t know how it spends And i know that he’s out there And I do have a ship But I already know how it ends For a long time It’s just been me & Daisy It’s made her weird It’s definitely made me crazy We’re fine alone But I reckon maybe It’s time that I let someone in Docked at Silverwing station In Silvia’s office I can tell that there’s something I’ve missed Cause she swears she ain’t angry And her smile it doesn’t shift But I can’t help but thinking she’s pissed And she’s only got the Best of intentions And I certainly am in her debt And she gave me a paycheck That I’ve already spent And I can’t really tell ya where it went For a long time It’s just been me & Daisy It’s made her weird It’s definitely made me crazy We’re fine alone But I reckon maybe It’s time that I let someone in Thought I had a good thing going Boy I can’t get anything right Guess there ain’t no shame in slowing When there ain’t no end in sight For a long time It’s just been me & Daisy It’s made her weird It’s definitely made me crazy We’re fine alone But I reckon maybe It’s time that I let someone in It’s time that I let someone in

Will you hold my hand if I have to travel that Starlit Path Though we shared these waters only for a moment our 2 ships passed Still we shared some laughs and we shared advice Guess that’s what happens when you roll the dice In this Ballad of Broken Dreams Out of Broken Shards you played your part so well You could’ve marched us, Parker, straight through the gates of Hell I would’a marched beside you, that was always the plan A shadow of my former self with my soul in hand In this Ballad of Broken Dreams In this little red crystal you will find us all Where we shared our battles, both great and small And I’ll do the best that I can to protect the Hope As I know you’ll protect our homes No there’s no room for hope When you’re caught on the ropes And you don’t know the scope of this Ballad of Broken Dreams This Ballad of Broken Dreams that we call home
