lyrics

Even though everything is wrong,
we sing a long, a long long song.
We cast our fate to the wind.

What did we find in the sky?
Just another question why.
Staring at ourselves – gods imbued.

(Chorus:)

And in the end it didn’t matter what we knew –
what we knew.

Even though it was true.

Coming down from the height of light
into the inky black of night – it’s cold.
Oh, so cold.

Even though the rain comes down
upon this forsaken town
I cannot leave – I have forsworn my fate.

I gaze on stars suffused by death,
glowing life in every breath
– my eyes widen, & burn away.

(Chorus #2)

And in the end it didn’t matter what we knew –
what we knew.

Because it was true.

Beauty our only light
in this eternal night –
the Black Sun.

Transmutation of the gray
into pageant colors gay –
my alchemy has only just begun –
begun.

(Chorus #3)

And in the end it didn’t matter what we knew –
what we knew.

They said it wasn’t true.

Olden truths that hide in your eyes –
your soul.

Behold.
