[Verse 1]
A  G      A      G A       G              A     G
Dark star crashes, pouring its light into ashes
Em   A  Em   A      Em      A                   Em   A
Reason tatters, the forces tear loose from the axis
A    G       A      G
Search light casting
    A             G         A        G
for faults in the clouds of delusion

A  G      A      G A       G              A     G
Mirror shatters in formless reflections of matter

Glass hand dissolving in ice petal flowers revolving

Lady in velvet recedes in the nights of good-bye
