Sublimity -

Mary:

Theres a luminescent string so fragile

From a butterfly’s frail wings

Made of random links and numbers

So tiny you can’t see

That string leads to the rise of

Giant empires not yet dreamed

If you catch just one glimpse of it

Its beauty makes you weep

A child spirit wanders rainstorms

Dancing in them like they’re mad

If you find them and embrace them

They bestow on you a laugh

There’s a lesser known equation

Where x is your delight

And y is innocence

And it proves they both were right

And all the wonder

All the wonder you can see

Sublimity

I’ve seen my share of horror

More than most you know

I know the weight of pain

That feels like more than you can hold

Yet in the depths of pi’s long numbers

A creature roams the ciphers there

There’s redemption here in wonder

Beauty that can still bring tears

In the deep of space there’s a comet

Where demon children play

And a bird of fire protects them

As they fly through cold, deep space

They’re dead now all the others

And i am all that’s left

We too were precious creatures

We too deserved to live

All the wonder

All the wonder you can see

Sublimity

We thought inside the great unconscious

If we grew a special place

A charming town so quaint and wondrous

We could all live there some day

If enough people believed it

It would grow and become real

We’d move there and we’d not

Become the things that kill

We tried to save the city

I know we have our share of sins

But we did the best we could

And i still want so much to live

There was nothing else quite like us

We were the only of our kind

Can’t you see it’s all so precious

This sweet and bitter life

All the wonder

All the wonder you can see

Sublimity
