The world is dead Nothing is breathing, pulsing An achromatic scheme of dark But white cannot exist in a black and grey sea I see a man Beckoning for me to come He, dressed in black with a crescent I need only to follow to escape my fear of this life I rise to kiss the crescent Steal one last look at the world of gray Falling in his arms I see stars for eyes A dream floating in towards the black of a moonless night Now I belong with those like me Escapers of this thing called life A lie for the optimists A wish for the best outcomes imaginable A kiss for the crescent Before you go home to mother Will bring you to me, where you belong I am all you need to breathe, to live, to cry, to die

Crescent
The world is dead Nothing is breathing, pulsing An achromatic scheme of dark But white cannot exist in a black and grey sea I see a man Beckoning for me to come He, dressed in black with a crescent I need only to follow to escape my fear of this life I rise to kiss the crescent Steal one last look at the world of gray Falling in his arms I see stars for eyes A dream floating in towards the black of a moonless night Now I belong with those like me Escapers of this thing called life A lie for the optimists A wish for the best outcomes imaginable A kiss for the crescent Before you go home to mother Will bring you to me, where you belong I am all you need to breathe, to live, to cry, to die
