1. Dark star crashes, pouring its light into ashes.

Em  A7   Em  A7  etc

Reason tatters, the forces tear loose from the axis.

Searchlight casting for faults in the clouds of delusion

Shall we go

Vers 2 @  21:21 Live Dead; 12:25 Fillmore East

Mirror shatters in formless reflections of matter.

Glass hand dissolving to ice petal flowers revolving.

Lady in velvet recedes in the nights of goodbye.

Shall we go, you and I while we can

Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?
