Somewhere beyond the atmosphere
Mind wandering deep space
Starlight and sightless dark
Silence in my wake
Eyes to take it in
Flames into my lungs
Burn myself alive to know the warmth of the sun
Somewhere beyond the atmosphere
Mind wandering deep space
Starlight and sightless dark
Silence in my wake
Eyes to take it in
Flames into my lungs
Burn myself alive to know the warmth of the sun
Cast me into space
Body weightless
Set me ablaze
Hang me up among the stars
Let me shine blue for ten mega-anna
Then collapse into my heart
Into the stellar core
Violent supernova
Black hole of remorse
The summer sky at night is alike to any other
Empty of all light aside from stars that sputter
Flicker out of sight
Contending with the moon to see who is most bright
A tight race, neck and neck
The moon borrows its light from our own little speck
A traitor to the stars
Equally as dim from some other planet, far
Feeble, just the same
In this desert ocean, we are not but one small grain
Little lights before my eyes
Hearts hung up like stars
Always so beautiful
Yet so distant
Forever far
I’m the dark, forgotten rock
Drifting out in space
No star to call my own
No warmth upon my face
In my empty system, I’ll forever wait
Come, O lonely star
Share your light and grace
