Astromelancholia

A star in the darkness
Light years from home
How long ago
Was it when I was breathing
In a different way
Than the rest of the human race

Into the night
Floating in my sleep
Into the night
A nightmare of gravity
The weight of my body wakes me

All the lights in the distance
Keep glimmering on
Reminding me of
The limits of my existence
I am stuck here
Lost in a lonely sphere

Into the night
Throughout the starry skies
Into the night
I want to rise

Infinite night never closes its eyes
Oh Urania you break my heart
Beauty at large thrown into the stars
Oh Urania you break my heart
Oh Urania you break my heart

All the stars in the darkness
How long to go
Bbefore I know
What waits for me behind them
Wide open space
I won't leave a trace

Into the night
So crushing and vast
Into the night
Further than too far
Take me back into the stars

Infinite night never closes its eyes
Oh Urania, you break my heart
Beauty at large thrown into the stars
Oh Urania, you break my heart
Oh Urania, you break my heart
Oh Urania, you break my heart
