Rising Light

from Two Brothers and a Ghost by Flagland

/

lyrics

Flash sideways and back to King Bug who is taking his revenge out upon all the world. Ozwald Branehart’s father, knowing that somehow he is responsible, sacrifices his own tongue in a dark ritual with malevolent forces, undoing King Bug’s wrath and his son’s death. The light rises; this creates the timeline of track three and others.

Look inside yourself,
See who’s peering out at you…
Two.

I’d trade his life for mine.
Take this tongue as collateral.
Just give me one more time.
There’s nothing quite so pitiful
Than to lose a son so beautiful.
Then all this rising, rising light…

Rising light,
Burn away the blood
And turn the clock hands into spinners.
Falling dark
Around the burning firewood.
Spread his ashes all around
As insects scutter toward the sound.

Look inside myself,
See who’s peering out at me…
Three.
