Cygnus Letra

A parasite without a home

It’s got a smile, but you don’t trust it
Concrete reasons unknown
Put it behind you in the space of your day
A parasite without a home

Leave her to sing her withered songs
In tunnels painted like the dawn
Bring me, the echo till it’s gone

Nothing escapes this hold
Desperate against the cold
Its’ flesh made out of stardust
Iron oxide into rust

To write a letter to the night
This songless, sightless, silent giant
This feeble plea
A speck of dust
A drop of sea
It’s locked in you and me
Rip it out and feel it’s heat
Forget the way things seem to be;
Meaningless to the one and only

Leave her to sing her withered songs
In tunnels painted like the dawn
Bring me, the echo till it’s gone

Nothing escapes this hold
Desperate against the cold
Its’ flesh made out of stardust
Iron oxide into rust

It’s got a smile, but you don’t trust it
Concrete reasons unknown
Put it behind you in the space of your day
A parasite without a home

And she’ll be standing strong
Her hair is lost in storm
Open your mouth
And let air rush in
To get a sense of her form

But if the audience is imminent
And if your parasites come home
Remember the old adage:
Deep roots are not reached by frost

Leave her to sing her withered songs
In tunnels painted like the dawn

To write a letter to the night
This songless, sightless, silent giant
