Whispers from MASQUE by Kill Scenes

the language of light
as spoken by a suicidal sun
set to destroy itself...
and everyone

and so what's after
but darkness and laughter
and a hushed confession
written out of sight?

whispers in the night
they call me out upon the vast array
bodies in the sky
identify
words that I can't say

the conflict of time
as chosen by
the eye that flickers on
set to expire before the thrill is gone

whispers in the night
they call me out upon the vast array
bodies in the sky
identify me
by your secret name

a silent wish rehearsed
sent up in coded verse
upon the heavens to take flight
i hear the final call
just as the curtains fall
"you've got to leave yourself behind
and find me"

whispers in the night
they call me out upon the vast array
bodies in the sky
identify me
by your secret name

a silent wish rehearsed
sent up in coded verse
upon the heavens to take flight
one pallid petal falls
the final curtain call
"you've got to leave yourself behind
and find me"
