A Requisite Contrition
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Spread me across the cosmic sea
I am only ashes now
Not even a name to mark the grave left for dust and silence
I thought they were angels
elevating me through the horrible night
Release me the burden of my human essence
I am drawn to a dismal paradise where sonnance and space are one
I thought it was an angel in the sun
Playing upon a harp of suffering and plagues
Arrogant laughter from space, commanding me to step far beyond the ledge
