Lyrics to Stargazer

Breathe

No air in thy lungs

No blood in thy veins



Breathe

No thoughts in thy mind

No love in my soul



Longing for the lessons of faraway gods

Blessed grace for the soul of one

Whose eyes go dull in the day

And hollow in the night

A free fall towards cosmic diamonds

A song of nymphs for the disenchanted

Should holding on be my death



Starborne, launched skyward into darkness

The projectile of intrinsic sin, unleashed

As horizons capsize under lamentations

Bearing promises of the better world



This plane beckons an old feeling

Before my birth, before this burden

Nested upon my gut



Voices call out a name from long ago

Echoed koans from far gone worlds

Must let myself fall, must not forget to



Breathe

The wind wheezes under the weight of time

How difficult it is to release



Release

Cosmic bodies lay fire to my visions

A hollow gestalt bare before me

That I may be reborn



That I may find peace



Bloody clenched fists keep me grounded

In a world hurling towards oblivion

The strong-armed embrace of gravity

Annihilates itself against the light

The violent fecundity of the stars



Reason shares the same fate as the sun

Thoughts collapse under the silence of my being

Quiescent in the eternal presence of the all

The body withers away and blossoms the elements

Time be stripped of me, that I may live

Death be upon me, that I may breathe



Breathe
