Tracklist

• 1. Part 1: Starless (08:08)
   copy

  "And there she lies, broken on the grass
  Awaiting the moments til her life is gone
  Her father weeps by her side
  Torn by anguish
  He holds her hand tightly
  As she slowly slips away"
  
  A starless sky above
  Once the reflection of her life
  Never to see the lights again
  Now that she has died
  
  A starless sky above
  Once the reflection of her life
  Never to see the lights again
  Now that she has died
  
  Cursed to live in darkness
  We've lost what once was our guide
  We will never know peace again
  Now that she has died
  
  One by one they fade
  Each extinguished by the dripping of her blood
  Only the moon will remain
  Alone in a starless sky
  
  How could I do this
  How could I end the lights of the night
  Why would I do this
  Condemning us to live under a blackened sky
  
  Give me back my daughter
  Give us back the stars
  Grant me my revenge
  Now that she has died

• 3. Part 2: Sunless (09:07)
   copy

  "I watched the stars fall from the night sky
  like flies caught in some airborn poison.
  I watched as dawn's light tried in vain to breach the horizon
  before fading to obscurity and darkness...
  
  ... And it is all that I ever wanted..."
  
  I, who now dwells in darkness
  Who breathes air of poison
  May my grief become conviction
  For I have already slain the light
  
  Her body preserved in moonlight
  Serene as our starless skies
  Forgotten to all
  Daughter of the stars
  
  Hands around her neck
  Her dying smile
  An ephemeral voice
  As lights begin to fade
  
  Eyes close slowly
  Breathing subsides
  Skin grows cold
  Body grows limp
  
  Her hair like the stars
  Her eyes like the sun
  And her soul like the moon
  
  Don't worry, (my darling), I'm coming, (I'll be home soon)
  I'm so sorry, (my darling), I made you wait, (I'll be home soon)
  Your night is beautiful, (my darling), I'm so glad it will never end, (I'll be home soon)
  This gift, (my darling), my gift to you (I'll be home soon)
  
  A return to splendour
  A body to the grave
  Her cosmic resting place
  A father's rage
  
  We've lost our light
  Our days end
  No more sunlight
  As moonlight descends

• 5. Part 3: Moonless (08:53)

  I've been gone too long
  All as I left it
  Is worn out and tired
  And covered in dust
  
  Her room is dark and empty
  Memories float silent
  In the still night air
  Cementing my regret
  
  I'll never see her again
  I'll never feel the warmth of her smile again
  I'll never breathe words of comfort to her again
  I'll never see the sunlight again
  
  And as the world now comes crashing down
  The lonely silence rings in my ears
  Moving slowly through the immortal night
  She precipitates like rain
  
  Our light no more
  
  Sorrow leads me by the hand
  And shows me my litany of failures
  The stars taken from the land
  Just another one of my failures
  
  And as the world now comes crashing down
  The lonely silence rings in my ears
  Moving slowly through the immortal night
  She precipitates like rain
  
  I now fear the dark
  
  It's like the rain washes my shame
  Born anew in pure darkness
  Like sparkling moondust
  She tears the night away
  
  We thought what we could not
  I welcome our end
  And the shape of her smile
  Was sparkling moondust
  
  The shape of her smile
  Is sparkling moondust
  
  The shape of her smile
  Is sparkling moondust
