Out goes the light
Extinguished from sight
No feeling
Of transcended being
Ensconced by night
In my flight from life
Strength once within
Now eroded by wind
An ethereal breeze
Blows in me
Cautious steps into the unknown
A light that shines from the good lord
The faithful's awakening
Is happening
Reborn with angel wings
Fluttering swiftly, astoundingly free
Never time for prayer
Didn't care who was there
But pulled from the damned
By the good lord's hand
Don't know why he did it
I know I don't deserve it
Time has passed
Stars never last
The galactic truth
Wax the moon, sink the sun
A finite future for our daughters and sons
Out, out away from here
Yet somehow near
The promised land
For all women and men
Souls that have been liberated
Living in what a divine hand created
My nocturnal cloak
Now sun-soaked
And the angel wings
Are fluttering swiftly, astoundingly free
The corona in mind
And penumbra behind
Our thoughts of Earth
Wax the moon, sink the sun
It's a finite future for our daughters and sons
In the incandescent glow
Of what the light shows
Where will we go
Now that we know?
Taking flight into the unknown
Of a universe made by the good lord
My wings fluttering swiftly, astoundingly free
