Pg 892
Mammalian Swarm, Into The Pillar Warm
The disturbance continuing.
The rumbles and booms.
Whatever the pastor's doing,
The sounds of it fill the rooms.
Mikkel and Sigrun both
Grab each other in shock.
The many spirits goeth,
In a midnight monster rock.
The phantoms transforming,
To animals as they flock.
Up skywards they are storming,
Their paths no longer blocked.
Upwards, into the rafters,
To find their peace they go.
To the beyond, the hereafter,
In a column of heavenly glow.

Heavens Above (based on Tunnel of Love by Dire Straits)
Getting crazy on the altar, but it's the life that I choose
Sing about the witch-braid, sing about the path back, and the spirits confused
And I've been hiding in the church, drained, where my body's been and damned
And I don't know where I'll be tonight, but I'd always tell you of the Psalms
In a screaming ring of faces, I see her standing in the light
She had a spirit full of graces, just like them, she was a victim of the blight
She put her hand out, they believed her, said "let us up and let us go"
She had the phantoms turned to creatures, it was a column full of burning lost souls
And the spirits need returning, ether burning, soaring up
To the sky, from this world
Come on and let your soul guide from the church
To the heavens above
It's just a danger, danger, when you're finding out an unknown miss
She said "I knew you'd find me, stranger", she said "Braidy, I knew you would, like this"
It's just a cake, talk, mission, Reynir, let me help and pray
Hey spirits, tell the truth, yes, tell the truth 'cause you can join your family
And the spirits need returning, ether burning, soaring up
To the sky, from this world
Come on and let your soul guide from the church
To the heavens above
Well it's been a lonely struggle on solo services
A lonely struggle in a monster chrysalis
Another trouble just to take it in
And break away, break away, oh break away, break away
The dream, it looks so pretty to me, just like it always did
Have a Danish pastry on me, soon it begins
Oh, dream, it looks so pretty to me, just like it always did
Have a Danish pastry on me, soon it begins
[instrumental]
We had a cup of coffee, she said "we won't meet after this"
Just a lady disembodied, in a final reminisce
And in the church and steeple, she stood on her ground to say
"You were not abandoned, just lost, and now you've discovered your way"
And the spirits need returning, ether burning, soaring up
To the sky, from this world
Come on and let your soul guide from the church
To the heavens above
And in this church, in parallel, the animals parade
Spirits come from everywhere, from all around, to find escape
In this dark reality, her promises were made
To break away, break away, break away, break away, from murder-ghost and beasts decay, oh to break away
The dream, it looks so pretty to me, just like it always did
Have a Danish pastry on me, soon it begins
Dream, it looks so pretty to me, just like it always did
Have a Danish pastry on me, soon it begins
[awesome solo finish]
