lyrics

Do the stars dream of what is to come?
Do they bear the countless æons?
Or do they wander as shining wraiths,
Gleaming dead across the dark firmament?

You will return to the void whence you came
Temporary spark of consciousness
Born to suffer being
Return to nothingness

Cosmic dread
No escape
Time advances
Oblivion awaits

Though you are temporary
Your effect remains
A tapestry of causality
Woven by your will

Cold, pallid death, with great brutality
Will rend you of your physical form
But it can’t remove your changes
It holds no true power over you

The echoes of your love
Will reverberate ever after
As long as mortal hearts shall remain
To beat together as one

You were once a part of the story
Of our world’s short existence.
Your name may not be remembered,
But you played your part all the same

Volaie!
