The smoke is thick and clouds my mind
There is little light left with which to hope
The sun a distant ember from days gone by
I scan the night through my telescope

Ice sheets bathe the world in blood
Loneliness is the new paradigm
Endless nights I lie awake and wonder
In the myths I believed in for a time

And like the faint twinkle I witness
Believed in beyond my insanity
You resplend in my heart beyond beauty
The last star I know I will ever see
