lyrics

I'll destroy every planet
In search of you
Always in search of you

I arrive at midnight
Illuminate the sky
You'll see the signs

The air accelerates in all directions
Rain falls and never hits ground
Mountains compress to the size of grains of sand
Sea level rises
Everything levitates
Then all matter is pushed away from its center
In all directions like a bursting star

I'll destroy every planet
In search of you
Always in search of you

Infinite time to wait
In finite space
Eventually, we will meet
Inevitably, you will meet your fate

To allow you to get away
Would go against my programming
Your leaving is haunting me
Possessed by animus
In a dream-like trance

I, the Arbiter of your progression
I, the harbinger of your annihilation

I'll destroy every planet
In search of you

I'll destroy every planet
Every last moon
I'll destroy every astral body
In search of you

I'll destroy every planet

The unshakable obscurity
The reaching hand in the dark
A eulogy in minor tones
More felt than heard
Structured to strike a chord
In the grip of death's benevolence
A call from beyond
That all must answer

I'll destroy every planet
In search of you
Always in search of you
Where you go I follow

There is no escaping
Forever in my shadow
Delaying the inevitable

To allow you to liberate
From my distorted gravity
My mind disturbed with hostility
Where you go I follow

I'll destroy every planet
Where you go I follow
I'll destroy every celestial body
Where you go I follow

I'll destroy every planet
Where you go I follow
