Through Suffering He Paints the Universe

A soul long gone
 Let love of its fate run array
 He lived under the hand of gravity
 With such intent
 Almost as if it broke and set him free
 And through his dreams
 He brought us reverie
 And through his pain we bask in reverie
 Love of fate
 Don't put musing's loud voice in a cage
 The kings may end the world
 If they let loose the nukes
 And she may love me come tomorrow
 Come the next day she may leave
 As they decide to call the truce
 Still through the dreams
 He brought us reverie
 And through his tears he brought us reverie
 As if he knew the day the heavens let him
 Through their door
 The praises of his truth
 Would send the congregation
 Fleeing to the moon
 Because he paints his sight
 The suffering ignites
 All pieces of grandeur
 Wealth, memory
 One flash, expunged from Earth's orbit
 Surface, touch and sky
 Embarked on nothing toward nowhere
 Desolate non-land
 Of souls that simply just are gone
 As the sun was not and again won't be
 And the ocean will freeze mourning
 Everything ceases to be, as will I
 Still I'd love to stain the Earth
 Before venturing toward nowhere
 Desolate non-land
 Of souls past
 And souls that could have been
 Virtually the same
 Nowhere
 His depictions of all that he saw
 Figurative drawings of life's tears and blood
 Made life worth living in itself
 For its purpose is itself
 For its purpose is itself anyway
 Look no further
 Stay here, survive while you can
 All pieces of grandeur
 Wealth, fame, memory
 One flash expunged from consciousness
 Past and present tense
 And thoughts of destinies
 That could have been
 Desolate non-land
 Of souls that simply just are gone
 As the sun was not and again won't be
 And the ocean will freeze mourning
 Everything ceases to be, as will I
 Still I'd love to stain the Earth
 With my name past my own time
 As if he knew the day
 The heavens let him through their door
 The praises of his truth
 Would send the congregation
 Fleeing to the moon
 Because he paints his sight
 The pressure of his suffering
 Ignites the flame
 Which bursts to form a star
 Resting in a place
 Where its brilliant light extends so far away
 To warm us when he's gone
 A soul long gone
 Let love of its fate die today
