The Burning Eyes

Trying to fight the almighty force
That tries to collapse your existence
Burning more and more energy
In an endless run leading to apocalypse.

As the poisonous iron infiltrate
Your deepest core
In a desperate try to avoid
Your ineluctable fate.

This is the end of the nuclear power
This is the end of the light
A last flash in the sky
I will pray for you this night.

When a dying star turns to inferno
As the heart of a red giant collapses
In a far distant past we stare at a wink
This is an ancient God's last will.

Arise! A new corpse is born
Behold! A neutronic beast has awaken
Tearing down the gravity
Twisting the core of reality.

O agonizing white dwarf
Pulse one more time for me
Feed with your sister's energy
Come back to life just one second.

The cold beauty of numbers
Tells us how the sun burns
How the Earth moves and turns
And why the night is black.

We are ashes of the stars
Born from a frozen sky
Carried by cosmic winds
Childrens of Armageddon.

Your end is a blessing
You've built in your crucible
The future bricks of the living
Mother of all, born from your death.

You spread light and energy
But you're about to become
The greatest mystery - Draped in darkness.

Like a young shy virgin
You will go out of sight
Forever out of our world
Forever alone in the cold.

Where are you now?
You who gleamed in the night?
Your suicide is complete
Let me embrace you.

Cold physic will tell us
The beauty of the universe
Behind inert equations
Lies the sublime.

We know where to look at
While levels of energy increases
We break the matter
Going deeper, deeper.

Magnificent drops of fire
Glorious burning eyes.

Protect me from the piercing look of God
Be my light, be my guide and my prayer
Laisse-moi caresser ta lumineuse enveloppe
Laisse-moi plonger au cœur de ton fou.

In my dreams you keep forever burning
In my slumbers we dance together in the void
When the fate of many stars
Becomes the future of mankind.
