The sound quality on the video is a bit fuzzy, but I really like these tunes, so attempt to bear with it... =)

iv: Passage
By Everett A Warren
November 10, 1989
Through the silent halls of the unborn,
Through walls of time and space I find my way.
Crawling between crying planets that scream out their pains,
Unknown in the ether of common thought I find my way.
Dreaming of stars that fly in the night, the edge of a gulf that looms below.
Deadening mists whisper to my soul, the lure of a thousand dreams.
Never too late to see the vision of what has become me, myself, and I,
I can't explain the path on which I find my way.
The hand that guides clasps tight around my soul,
It drags me on and on and on.
When will my journey end, when will I be free to walk the earth,
When will it end?
Destiny's bell tolls, ringing through the madness, it calls my name,
Ecstasy in vertigo, I see myself in you, I see all in everything.
Mystic places that transcend, angry tempests devouring,
Shores eroding constantly, minds in withdrawal, pain never felt.
Tottering towers of humanity cast in the madness of the sea,
Now I see.
Through the silent halls of the unborn,
Through walls of time and space I find my way.
Crawling between crying planets that scream out their pains,
Unknown in the ether of common thought I find my way.
Dreaming of stars that fly in the night, the edge of a gulf that looms below.
Deadening mists whisper to my soul, the lure of a thousand dreams.
Never too late to see the vision of what has become me, myself, and I,
I can't explain the path on which I find my way.
In destiny, I find my way, I lead the blind leading the blind,
I see no more than what's behind me now.
In prophecy, I can't recall, what's never to be and never to be,
I see no more than what's behind me now.
The instability of insanity rocks like seas unknown,
This journey to the beginning of all time that they take us on.
Walls resound with pounding sound, grinding deaf ears, minds are closed,
Floating in a dream-filled world, light never reaches eyes that cannot see.
I cannot see.
The known and the unknowing, they clash like titans 'midst the starry void,
When time is lost and dreams are found they hide themselves between ourselves.
Hands that guide in delicate motion withdraw their feeble grasp on our souls,
Their touch fades into the void leaving us alone, time echoing from boundless walls,
Calling out my name.
Through the silent halls of the unborn,
Through walls of time and space I find my way.
Crawling between crying planets that scream out their pains,
Unknown in the ether of common thought I find my way.
Dreaming of stars that fly in the night, the edge of a gulf that looms below.
Deadening mists whisper to my soul, the lure of a thousand dreams.
Never too late to see the vision of what has become me, myself, and I,
I can't explain the path on which I find my way.
Find my way...
