Raise my feet, bring them down
Ram rooftops into the ground
Old worlds' blood upon my lips
Impaled kings upon my crown
Spread my arms and crack the sky
Clamor of six billion cries
Homeworld breaks for the abyss
I breathe of stars and learn to fly
Viscous seas of starlit milk
Empty kingdoms choked with silt
Crown drifts soft through silent storms
Naked scalp is left to wilt
New star pulls me to its fringe
Wrap my arms around my shins
Close my eyes against the Vast
Sleep until new life begins
