Breathtaking

Kings have conspired
Enthralling enchantments
Across the world
Now we dance
Unified at last

Remember the old songs
Every long evening
Escaped into the wild
Voracious we surely were
Excited by the world beyond
Shadows danced by fire's light

Irresistible starlight
Shepherded us into the night

Beyond the known world
Really it was so very beautiful
Eerie though was the silence
As though holding a deep secret
That made us yearn for more
Here in this glorious new world
That we did enjoy song and dance
Anomalies in the matrix
Kings in our minds
Indubitably this was our salvation
Now we rest for sunlight
Goodnight sweet prince
