Laith - Corona (feat. Jon Luke Taylor) Lyrics

How many times have you caught yourself
Looking up at the reflection of a too bright sun
Among a softer audience?

Trapped in orbit that goes from hot to cold
With no in-between, unable to sustain life

Heart like a comet, going fast and frigid
Leaving a trail none ought follow
Except from far away, through the looking glass

Did it ever make you feel less empty
All that dark matter like black canvas
Seating an audience trillions strong
With everywhere to look but you?

Jupiter ever make you jealous
With all those it holds close?
Reminding you of who you miss
Wondering what would it be like
To be so heavy that no-one could get away?

And so you crash against some other body
Just to make an impact, even if all you left was a crater
At least that would put you on the map

All these others with their pretty rings
Turning brilliantly, lighter than air
As you stumble lightless and listlessly

Wishing you could fall apart like a rocket in flight
Pushing for that next stage
Leaving sections of yourself all along the way

Wondering what it feels like
To feel full of something other than phantom pain
And forced feelings

Caught without the sun
Starting your own fires
Filling yourself with fuel
Pulling hard on that ember
Like it's your fuse to go off

And then, it's over
And here you are, just the same
No nova past that; the light is out
Just a black hole, missing the horizon
Caught within its field
