the beauty, tender glow extinguished
the sky dull from a breeze
ghostly the dawn without its red
uncanny, estranged to our nature
the light like lead

ripped in the dark
a tiny sichle
as small as cut by a surgical knife

the suns last spark melts away
not unlike a dying wick
now stands disc on disc
and crushes my heart

all i really, really, really want to see
is a total eclipse of the sun

'ah' says everyone
just the birds are silent
with surprise

all i really, really, really want to see
is a total eclipse of the sun
