Painters of the Tempest - Part II - Triptych Lux

Lyrics

Come forth dark herald
 Bringer of light
 Born by the burning swans and his plague breath
 Creator of the dream coil, a halo aloft
 As hands entwine
 ♪
 Painters of the tempest, with their red hands
 The world their canvas
 Through the mist of the stormglass
 ♪
 And Bruegel dreamt the angels above
 As Bosch danced in earthly delight
 Angels fall
 Into the canvas
 Reaching for the light
 Heaven is empty
 And all the beauty is here
 Upon this bone palette
 The sway of nine-tails
 Layered lashings of euphoria and chaos
 Triptychs unfold like wings
 As the arms of our fathers bear the weight of what they've done
 Anti-matter-martyrs
 ♪
 Warmth of life
 Where they sing of fire
 Children's eyes, for they all shine
 As tears rise, oceans of flame billow
 When all dreams lose hope
 ♪
 Angels fall (And Bruegel wept for the fading sun)
 Into the canvas (Where have all the angels gone?)
 Reaching for the light
 Heaven is empty (Where have all the angels gone?)
 As hell below (The angels gone)
 And hell below (Gone!)
 Painted by ghosts
 Lords of lifeless eyes
 In this garden of wilted flowers
 Vultures spake the mother tongue
 ♪
 Hear the children
 A breathless sleep
 Where they dream a new day
 Echoing
 Oh when they dream
 Ebb and flow... free falling
 Beautiful and calm
 And fragile, and whole
 Where they dream a new day
 Through the coil they course and carousel
 Echoes
 Hear the lost children
 Hear the children sing
 Through the coil they carousel
 Within this stained glass womb
 They sing with open minds
 ♪
 Within this stained glass womb
 They see with open minds
 The event horizon and beyond
 ♪
 A wasteland and so barren
 Haunted by a sea of pale faces
 The city of lost children
 Raising their death-shrouded flags
 Can you hear the redrum pounding?
 The heartbeat of many as one
 Curator, father, what have we become?
 ♪
 Radiance, blinding horizon
 The brilliant sunrise
 Their horizons, where they seize this life
 Our children
 Painters, they are
 They are, the change
