red star lyrics: zac lasher
Abandoning a line of cars they come
Touring through the bog, the last crusade
Disillusioned, disenchanted, they all disobeyed
Drawn to Pisces’ dying rays
Lit for seven thousand days
One final chance to set the pilgrims’ ears ablaze
Creation is crying
The red star is dying
They can’t control the light
It’s blinding to the sea
Fluorescence fills the sky
Falling down around me
Dreamers gaze in rapt surprise
At the supernova’s violent start
Vanguards gravely eulogize
A black hole fills my heart
Incomprehensible emotions
Choked inside by unresponsive hands
Never thought such tortured music
Could come from this band
Mortal passing on the stage
The icons simply come of age
The book has ended
Mournful tears stream off the page
Fingers fumbling
Constellations crumbling
Something isn't right
The sky starts to scream
A swan will sing tonight
The Curtain falls on this final scene
