Till the stars turn cold
Until the heat has left this plane,
Until the last sane man goes insane,
Till the skies have collapsed upon our heads,
Till the lives of all flesh have fled,
Until the lead has become gold,
I will need you till the stars turn cold.
Until the universe goes from light to black,
Until the watchers turn their backs,
Till the vastness implodes once more,
Till all matter becomes crystal hoar,
Till entropy itself gets old,
I will need you till the stars turn cold.
No distance between us can sever,
Stretched to an infinite never,
No barrier erected before us,
Can ever deny us,
Like poles of magnets,
Across the void,
All between us will be destroyed,
A thousand forevers,
Upon them I vow,
I will need you in time,
As I need you now.
