Highest Star

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Under the vault of heavens I stood alone, waiting The blaze of silver shining in my eyes My hands, gleaming gold [Pre-Chorus 1] The red of iron in my veins The blue of steel in my bones The sparkle of blackness of coal in my hair My chest golden with waves [Chorus] It is my heaven It has my eyes It is my space It has my shape [Post-Chorus 1] I knew it was my masterwork I felt the strength of gods Revised the soaring heights Let the heavens be aligned Heavens be aligned [Verse 2] I listened with care the place for the moon Made sure of the tones Painted through void, the rule for the sun Made out the locus of stars [Pre-Chorus 2] I pierced the distant dome For the lights to seep through I checked the curves and borders of all And placed the highest star [Chorus] It is my heaven It has my eyes It is my space It has my shape [Post-Chorus 2] It worked the sun and danced It shone and gloved and gleaned It circled, curved and blazed It pulsed, burned and waned Burned and waned [Outro] It flowed (It flowed) From my bones (From my bones) Bolted (Bolted) From my fingers And settled on (And settled on) And over me (And over me) And made me (And made me) Face my longing
