Everlasting in Retrograde Parts 1 & 2

Rising from my shell, a newborn cosmic light

Entering oblivion, light exiting mortality

The stars all surround me, guiding my body my being

Leading me forward, keep the ghosts at bay

Spirits and shadows

Drawing me through endless doorways

Every choice creating other lives

But another dies

It takes every part of me

And in the end, our loss spans the galaxy

It takes every part of me

And in the end, our love across the galaxy

Enter the loop, I just can't resist

The chance to try again

Enter the loop, I just can't resist

The chance to try again

Spirits and shadows

Drawing me through endless doorways

Every choice creating other lives

But another dies

It takes every part of me

And in the end, our loss spans the galaxy

It takes every part of me

And in the end, our love across the galaxy

Reach for another try, will the outcome be the same

Endlessly trying again and again

Life flashing in my eyes, decisions blinded by light

Entering oblivion, light exiting reality

A shell of what it once was

Long before the fall

It was mostly beautiful, until it was used up

Til we were floating through the warps of time

I succumb to the surmise the well of ink ran dry

Through the hourglass

Clench and remind of the days just passed

Not even days at all

The flight after the fall

Everlasting in retrograde

Everlasting in retrograde

It takes every part of me

It takes every part of you
