Spiral
Jabin Law Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
As the cluster is in a chain
In the spiral of the deep ocean
In the only direction
When the stars are one giant brain
When the sun is altering
Perfect hurricane
As the burning dust remains
As the darkness is altering
If the light has lived the age
The temperature has turned the page
When the colours have been entertained
The spiral is now not the same
Perfect hurricane
The stars they shine
The suns they burn
It takes a billion years to glow
How long is eternity?
How loud is this symphony?
The horizon would resonate
To bring it back to the ultimate fate
Particles danced, the time it freezed
The wave it held the electric breeze
The stars never shine
The suns never burn
Within the core the flash is driving away
Without an eye it can't tell a night from a day
Time, time and space
They fall, fall apart
Falling apart
Falling apart
Falling apart
And the heart of the spiral
Will glow
