The Black Canvas

Lyrics

The very maxim of the universe
 portrayed by the greatness the stars rehearse
 premeditated by nature's sense
 a modest exuberance so intense
 that every mind has failed to grase it
 Forged by time on the last of eternity
 complex constructions - a stellar fraternity
 spread out on a canvas of deepest black
 the white glowing softness a fierce attack
 on every space still to be filled by matter
 A pursuance of that very first creation
 expansion and a constant alteration
 the fringes of the canvas always stir
 the boundary is bathing in a blur
 Forged by time on the last of eternity
 complex constructions - a stellar fraternity
 spread out on a canvas of deepest black
 the white glowing softness a fierce attack
 That odious draught: insufficiency
 touched man as he climbed himself mentally
 alone with his newborn dexterity
 came death to his fear - a corollary
 of the fact that the stars never sensed his presence
 The very maxim of the universe
 portrayed by the greatness the stars rehearse
 Even narcissus would drown in the sky
 if his eyes ever rose from the mirror ponds
 this radiant image, a stellar high
 eternally feeding the gnostions: "why"
 to which every nightsky's a vast response
 A pursuance of that very first creation
 expansion and a constant alteration
 the fringos of the canvas always stir
 the boundary is bathing in a blur
 Forged by time on the last of eternity
 complex constructions - a stellar fraternity
 spread out on a canvas of deepest black
 the white glowing softness a fierce attack
