[Intro, twinkling synths, soft vocal] I sent a prayer into the black And something enormous blushed back [Verse 1, death metal, growled verses] It has watched a billion worlds burn cold It has teeth in the dark and a heart of old It never trembled, it never bent Till a pink light rose and the heavens went [Pre-Chorus, clean, rising] Quiet now, the void is shy It practiced this in an empty sky [Chorus, clean lead, growl echoes] The stars are blushing pink tonight The old ones hide their eyes from the light A god came down with its heart in its claws And asked the garden to teach it awe The stars are blushing, look away Even horror doesn't know what to say [Verse 2, growled] It brought a comet like a bouquet It carved my name the non-Euclidean way Every cult on Earth dropped to one knee Not out of fear, out of jealousy [Bridge, whispered dread] If it loves us, what unmakes the dark? If it stays, what survives the spark? [Final Chorus] The stars are blushing pink tonight The old ones hide their eyes from the light A god came down with its heart in its claws And asked the garden to teach it awe [Outro, music box and choir] It stayed for tea It stayed for good
