"Cassiopeia" Lyrics

Come in close now, it's time to tell the story
Long ago and so many years before we
Ever were, ever dreamed we even could be
There was her and her very first heartbeat

All alone in the corner of the night sky
Spiral bones of a supernova starlight
Fell in love with another burning bright
She dreamed of a way to ignite

CHORUS:
She said, "Tonight, come on, come on collide
Break me to pieces, I
I think you're just like heaven"
"Why, come on, come on collide
Let's see what a fire feels like
I bet it's just like heaven"
(Just like heaven)
(Just like heaven)

Such a shame
Nowhere near even a near miss
Lightyears away
From the hope of being sun-kissed
Anchored home in her interstellar sea
But, poor lonely Cassiopeia

So she sighs and she burns with desperation
Learns to cry over love of constellations
Then the spark from a star shooting too close
They both smiled
What a day to explode

CHORUS

Long ago, in a sky built before us
A supernova grew up to be stardust
