A Lifetime Too Soon

The time was not for you to go alone
misunderstood by the universe
Your time to go has come and gone
So now we’re left to dry in the sun
Sentenced to a lifetime of wonder

Write us a message in the stars
Repair and cleanse our tattered scars
The pain has gone much too far
Is there no escaping this
True realm of loneliness

Now go, explore the cosmos
Give the devil my farewell
As you escape the grip of man
And the ideas that drown us all

So far from us, looking back
At the fairness of our worries
What have we not cherished
Other than the things that matter least

there’s no going back
After walking with the spirits
Maybe they’ll show you the way
The way to find yourself
In a way you never could
With your feet rooted in earth

It’s a place that’s meant for you
So sad that it’s true
But your light shines on
Immortalized

Until we ourselves have died
You’ll never leave
You’ll never escape
You’ll always be caught
In our memories
