lyrics

there's nothing left for you here when all conflicts have been resolved and this carcass has been picked clean and your parasitic tendencies have spread to the furthest of stars there's nothing left for you here countdown launch stasis destination event horizon why must you live forever as a monument to barely living as your spacecraft floats past the satellites the heat slowly dissipates as you've been cold for so long waiting on event horizons while we are merely transients we will act as victims of impermanence we'll refrain from looking to far for you when you're gone and were all pretending to enjoy ourselves we'll carve out a modest existence from this stone and sandcastles serve as temporary homes and you god of nothing have become the loneliest witness to the end of the world why must you live forever as a monument to barely living as the sun burns through the last of its fuel a red giant sprawls to consume all you've known and all you've ever loved
