When Compared
The emptiness of everything
The power to transcend
The brightness of the stars
The quickness of the end
Connecting the pieces of chaos
Directing the patterns of space
Creating something that isn't there
Our powerful human race
With size beyond conception
With darkness beyond compare
With sights that roil reflection
With planets full of air
Coldness one canβt picture
Heat beyond relation
Micro barren wastes
Sights beyond description
Before the great black holes
Before the stars were there
Before the rising of it all
Before we were aware
Timeless in its existence
Endless in its expanse
Thoughtless in its nature
Ruthless in its stance
Actors on the tiny stage
Invisible in size
They fill the place with rage and hate
And create a world of lies
With power that means nothing
The theater of our race
How minuscule our lives do seem
When theyβre compared to space
