Lyrics
Five billion worlds finitely revolve
and gracelessly evolve upon a
once placid and balanced ocean.
Threatening clouds incessantly sweep the ocean
with light, immaculate showers, submerging worlds, inspiring wake for those surrounding.
Beneath the surface of the ocean lie the true
beings of worlds past, safe from the foreboding
heavens, as well as buoyant worlds
Above the clouds exist a cryptic, unceasing warmth, which at times penetrates the underlying darkness to touch the ocean with inspiration, fertility, and hope.
