Torrents of radiation
Wondering in how many places across the cosmos
Similar scenes take place
Individuals comforting one another
Before the bitter end

The light of ancient mistakes
Billions of sentient creatures suffer and perish
Gigadeathcrimes
Monstrous weaponry
Winter storm

Take refuge in the hull of ruined ships
Forbidding, haunted

Heat of battle burns in the mind
Chemical simplicities
Against withering realities
Struggling personality construct
In the ship’s false night

Hermetic mausoleum
Forlorn desolation
Beyond the dark domes

In the ship’s false night
Hermetic mausoleum
Forlorn desolation
Beyond the dark domes
