lyrics

Everything that we can see is merely
Glowing in its own entropy,
Secondhand by pale reflection
Or is backlit against the dying sun

Warming our hands by the coals
Of our own funeral pyre
Light is a harbinger
Of all that will expire

Feeding on the carcasses of stars
Embers from guttering fires
We eat the ashes
The briefest of flashes

Cold is the law and the way
Our final fate is
Radiant decay
In ever yawning space

Feeding on the carcasses of stars
Embers from guttering fires
We eat the ashes
The briefest of flashes

We live in the worst of all possible worlds

One by one, the stars will flee beyond
The reach of light to tell us where they have gone

This is our fate
We will perish, dark and cold
Candlesmoke diffusing softly
Into the void
