Sutrah Stargazer Lyrics

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
