Lyrics
You found a map to my heart, it led you to the well
You combed at my mane, I'll wear your saddle and reins
With all these stars at my feet, I'll stamp and tap the spring
With my rider and mount, I feel like spreading my wings
Take to the sky like poetry
When we're in love, we're alive
You're the envy of the sky
Every ember wants to ride the supernova
But I fear you'll see the day
When I've endured all I can take
I won't bend, but I will break under the weight
Because you broke within me what others could not tame
I'll summon the wind and do your bidding day by day
With your firm strong hand, we're steady towards the North
We are a thing of beauty lit by the fires of iron ore
Your good old girl was built to soar
When we're in love, we're alive
You're the envy of the sky
Every ember wants to ride the supernova
But I fear you'll see the day
When I've endured all I can take
I won't bend, but I will break under the weight
Dying star, dying star
Dying star
Through many love-lit moons
I served my rider well
I suffered the bit and took his spur into my side
And still, I paid the price
And I shook that bridle free
And my beloved rider fell from the stars into the sea
You're of the Earth, I'm Pegasi
When we're in love, we're alive
You're the envy of the sky
Every ember wants to ride the supernova
But I fear you'll see the day
When I've endured all I can take
I won't bend, but I will break under the weight
Dying star, dying star
Dying star
