A C Invisible to telescopic eye A C Infinity, the star that would not die All who dare to cross her course Are swallowed by a fearsome force D Bm C F# Through the void, to be destroyed D Bm A Or is there something more? Atomized - at the core Or through the astral door G To soar. C F I set a course just east of Lyra D G And northwest of Pegasus Flew into the light of Deneb Sailed across the Milky Way On my ship, the 'Rocinante' Wheeling through the galaxies Headed for the heart of Cygnus Headlong into mystery Cm The x-ray is her siren song G# My ship cannot resist her long F Nearer to my deadly goal G Until the black hole Cm Gains control C#m Em Spinning, whirling G#m Gm Still descending C#m Em Cm Like a spiral sea, unending Sound and fury Drowns my heart Every nerve is torn apart.
