ON THE LEDGE
(Music by Angelo Pitone; Lyrics by Lisa Tenzin-Dolma)
There are old bones in the valley of my thoughts
Creaking out the answers that I just can't ignore anymore
As I wait to see what's on the distant shore
There are whispers in my mind, but I don't listen
They come from ancient gods who left me long ago - now I'm alone
And keep my gaze fixed on that distant shore
I am poised to take the leap
As the stones slide under me
I can't wait until the mystery finally comes to me
On the ledge, it feels so good
That I can fly beyond the haunted dreams
On the ledge, it feels so good
It will be the place where I'll be safe and free
Another self, another vision,
Of who I am meant to be
I'm on the ledge
There are whispers in my mind, but I don't listen anymore
The voices of ancient gods are far away from home
So I keep my gaze fixed on that distant shore
I am poised to take the leap
As the stones slide under me
I can't wait until the mystery finally comes to me
On the ledge, it feels so good
That I can fly beyond the haunted dreams
On the ledge, it feels so good
It will be the place where I'll be safe and free
Another self, another vision,
Of who I am meant to be
I can fly beyond the thinning veil
And tear it all asunder as I pass
Yes, I know well that I can't fail
Take just one more step towards the edge,
I'm on the ledge, and it feels so good
Now I can fly beyond the haunted dreams
I'm on the ledge, and it feels so good
It will be the place where I'll be safe and free
Another self, another vision,
Of who I am meant to be
I'm on the ledge

UNBECOMING
(Music by Angelo Pitone; Lyrics by Lisa Tenzin-Dolma)
I could sing a thousand tales
Of love and loss, trust and betrayal,
Of shining nights and shooting stars
Birthed within the fiery void
Of unbecoming
Of unbecoming
Voiceless, stories curl and flail
Against the silence, make avowal
To find expression, penetrate
Slip through the tender narrow cracks
Of unbecoming
Of unbecoming
In the light, such things are small
Subsumed within the daily trials
Yet come the night the spirit rails
Against the silence heralding
An unbecoming
An unbecoming
I could sing a thousand tales
Against the silence of the night
That slides across soft, narrow cracks
Of unbecoming
Of unbecoming
Of unbecoming
Of unbecoming
In the light, such things are small
Subsumed within the daily trials
Yet come the night the spirit rails
Against the silence heralding
An unbecoming
An unbecoming
But in the quiet, the seeds unfurl,
Push through the loamy depths,
Prevail against the pressure of the soil
That weighs so heavy, wayfaring towards a new becoming.
In the light, such things are small,
Subsumed within the daily trials
Yet come the night the spirit rails
Against the silence heralding
An unbecoming
An unbecoming
In the light, such things are small,
Subsumed within the daily trials
Yet come the night the spirit rails
Against the silence heralding
An unbecoming
An unbecoming

INTO THE SILENCE
(Music by Angelo Pitone; Lyrics by Lisa Tenzin-Dolma)
As evening cast its spell, the technicolor sky
Transformed the day to night
I felt the world subside and closed my eyes to light
I wove a silken web from filaments of dreams
I conjured visions of rebirth
And felt the past absorbed within the sleeping earth
Enfolded in the soft cocoon
I stood and stretched and saw it melt away like a ghost
Into the silence came,
Thou, radiance sublime
A thought, a seed, you've flown away,
Blossomed within my mind
As evening cast its spell, the colors in my life
Transformed from black and white
I felt the warmth of the sun, and now I'm fine
Enfolded in the soft cocoon
I stood and stretched and saw it melt away like a ghost
Into the silence came,
Thou, radiance sublime
A thought, a seed, you've flown away,
Blossomed within my mind
Into the silence came,
Thou, radiance sublime
A thought, a seed, you've flown away
Then I went back to shine
I went back to shine

EMERGE
(Music by Angelo Pitone; Lyrics by Lisa Tenzin-Dolma)
It's strange how things become so clear
When everything looked out of place
That emptiness was like a profound lake
And its cold caress was beckoning to me
To dive
To dive
To dive
To dive
As long as it's meant to be
I'm here, and I'm alive
And I breathe infinity
I sing for my growth and change
And all that went before
Never mind, it's time to emerge
And so, finally, I took the leap and found
Such treasures that I have never known
The spirit of darkness in the ground
And the soul of life that still unfold
In the light
The light
In the light
The light
As long as it's meant to be
I'm here, and I'm alive
And I breathe infinity
I sing for my growth and change
And all that went before
Never mind, it's time to emerge
As long as it's meant to be
I'm here, and I'm alive
And I breathe infinity
I sing for my growth and change
And all that went before
Never mind, it's time to emerge
Emerge
Emerge

Of Shadows And Lights Bari, Italy
Of Shadows And Lights project originally started as a band in 2018 from an Angelo Pitone's idea in which music, lyrics and pictures are the poetry that tell the story of good and evil, of who we really are and what we really have inside as human being. It's about the hidden undertones of our souls: of shadows and lights. Nominated in the Best Indie Rock Act category | WIGWAM Online Radio Awards. ... more
Of Shadows And Lights recommends:
Jordan's voice is so delicate that emotions come up naturally. "Rain" is the best track that explains that sensations. Listen to it, and you won't regret it!
