Roam beyond

The unknown
I call on the blue cloaked one
I call on the one eyed one
To guide me!
To show me the way!
The way!

Calling away
My changeling heart
Wanting to flee
This empty world
Calling away
To distant shores
Secrets in my blood
Yearn to be heard
Spill my veins in spiral weave
Painting my incantation
To ages lost, ages that have never been
Raise my will against the tide
Embrace my heart's burning seed
Pay this price of flesh and bone
Flesh and bone
All is not as it seems
Web of illusion conceals
And lulls into uneasy sleep
Ill-haunted scenes
Defiantly I lucid dream
But I fear my strength is leaving me
I've fallen into this world
I've fallen into this world
I've fallen into this world
Please release me
Guide me
Heal me
Release me
I'm waiting for the sign
I'm searching for the way

Have Faith Willow Tree

There is a willow of graceful limb
Dancing by the river's edge.
Hesitant, yet compelled from within
By a sap-filled heart that sings:
Songs of sadness, fear, and pain
Songs of laughter, joy, and play
Songs that vibrate from root to branch
And drift away
Forever
On the river
Perch on the water's edge
And have faith, willow tree:
The earth wants you here.
Sink roots into fertile soil
Drink deep the life
Pulsing through this earthly coil
Bide your time
Heed your inner counsel
Inside is a shining seed
Waiting to grow
Grow and become whole
You're not condemned to be alone
Sink your roots deep into soil and stone
The world needs your wise dancing soul

Goddess of Night

Count the stars
Before they fall
From the sky
Read their light
Learn the lore
Of the night
Drift in gloom
Fade into dreams
And far away
Count the stars
Let them guide
You aright
We don’t know
What might be
What we are
Mystery
We don’t know
What life is
Or where we will go
When it ends
Goddess of night spread your veil
Grant relief from the sun
Goddess of night shape the way
Sow your secrets in our souls

Release

If you do not give in just once in your life
You will never truly know what life is
If you never shed your armored skin
You will wither and die within
If you resent, rage, fear, or struggle in vain
Let your stagnation be the doorway to change
Unwind the web
Sort through its tangled ends
Unbind the thread
Weave it anew again
The wheel of change ever spins
Cycles complete and begin again
Rolling with tides is an art, my friends,
Release your seed-self to the wind

The Owl Song
18:11

Spread your wings
And fly into my mind’s eye
Ride the wind
And glide into inner silence
Owl stand tall
Noble sight
Regal born
Mistress of the night
Owl guide me
Safely through
This gloomy world
Spread your wings
And fly into my mind’s eye
Swoop and claim
Carry me away
From who I think
I should be
I will not let you go
You must make it through
Find the courage to overcome
Your self-inflicted wounds
You must embrace your pain
Or be lost and doomed
To sing a cold refrain
With no hope of being renewed
So let it go, all of it
Down into the darkest pits
Rend your flesh, dissolve your bones
Rebirth and death are one
You must face the truth
Let my love open you
Pain and joy are ball and chain
Freedom awaits within you
So let it go, all of it
Down into the darkest pits
Rend your flesh, dissolve your bones
Rebirth and death are one
Minerva
Hear my call
To be here now
To be here now
To be here now
Minerva
I light the torch
In your name
In your name
In your name
Spread your wings
And fly into my mind’s eye
Swoop and claim
Carry me away
From who I think
I should be
Paradoxical it seems
Union of opposites you need
Pass through the gates of entropy
The story never ends

Forests burning
To ash, to meaningless end.
Oceans choking
On oil, acid, plastic.
Earth raped and fractured,
Poisoned and parched.
Sky soaked in carbon
Weather turned violent.
Look what we've done
Look what we allow in our name
Look what we've done
What have we become?
Extinction run rampant
Humans life's enemy.
Wildness broken
Enslaved to technology.
Fueled by greed and injustice,
Contempt.
The needs of the many
Bent to the greed of the few.
The machine owns us all
Despite what we might will
The machine corrupts us all
How can we break this standstill?
Heed the call to
Action that stems from within.
Refuse to sit by, despairing,
As the world ends.
Look for the hope and
The beauty that dwells in all things.
Courage is trusting that
Even small deeds have meaning.
Strive with all we have
Even if we cannot win
Better to try and to fail
Than never to begin
Begin

Navigating the Labyrinth
by Dolven
supported by 11 fans who also own “Goddess of Night”
My favourite discoveries on Bandcamp are those albums I didn't know I needed. Beautiful, meditative music carrying the spirit of both epic and doom metal. I am reminded of Pagan Altar as well as the acoustic pieces in Lord Vicar's discography. Cathartic!

Dolven's music always feels like a breath of fresh air. An organic experience. I really enjoy their vision of acoustic doom.
