lyrics

I’ve always thought I was the main character,
I’ve always thought I had a crown of thornes
dug upon my forehead like a border,
lighting up this ellipse round the core.

What to do if everything got smaller?
What to do when your orbit’ll recede?
The land of my childhood is now vanished
here above my raft in open sea…

I’m the darkness coming to surround you,
you swarm like mosquitos round the stars.
Broke my orbit losing into nothing,
you just rest ìn the place where you are.

RIT: Feel I’ve never been so distant from the sun,
a light year from this hurt.
Deep Space.
Feel I don’t know if I’m starting to fall down,
or Dark is my new crown.

My realm.

Undefined has always been my habitat,
incompleteness my fuel to research.
Adorn this sky corner as an oracle,
make my body ready for the shift.
I’m the darkness coming to devour you,
to cure your skin burned by the stars.
Broke my orbit losing into nothing,

you. Just. Stay. Far

RIT.

Oh, listen what I say, I’ve changed center of gravity.
Oh, this trust stuck in me,
wall paper to decore the void.
I’m Carried away, carried away, carried away

from this, from this. (x 12)

RIT.

Aphelion, aphelion, aphelion. No turning back.
