Lyrics
The lesser lights of heaven are burning towards a dream
The dimmer celestial bodies are moving toward an aspiration or goal.
The eyes of mothers bleeding
The sorrowful gazes of mothers are in pain.
Cast their children to the sea
They abandon their offspring, sending them away, possibly out of desperation or sacrifice.
The lesser lights of heaven are screaming in our mind
Those fainter celestial entities are expressing intense emotions within our thoughts.
Listen to the chorus
Listen to the harmonious voices.
So divine and unkind
This chorus is both heavenly and harsh.
The lesser lights of heaven are burning for their Son
These celestial bodies are ablaze for their offspring, praying for the continuation of their lineage.
Praying for the presence
Seeking the presence of the entity that gave them existence.
That birthed them into one
That entity, their Son, brought them into being.
The lesser lights of heaven, their bodies but a flame
These celestial entities, despite being ephemeral, are likened to fire.
A sky that knows no distance
They exist in a sky where there are no boundaries or separations.
A cut that feels no pain
They are experiencing a state that does not register pain.
The lesser lights of heaven are bending towards your will
These entities are bending or yielding to your desires or intentions.
Cutting through the person
Penetrating through the individual who prefers their own demise over causing harm to others.
Who would rather die than kill
Someone who values their life less than the act of taking another's.
The lesser lights of heaven cast crowns before your throne
They offer their symbols of authority or achievement to your presence.
Dissipate into nothing
They dissipate or disappear into nothingness.
We truly are alone
A recognition of profound solitude or isolation.
Can we live through this? The lesser lights of heaven
Questioning the survivability amidst the struggles represented by these fainter celestial entities.
