A Thing Of Beauty | Black Onyx Tears

A Thing of Beauty

You have been searching in times past

Searching the landscapes of the universe

Desperately seeking a thing of beauty

You have drowned in liquid darkness

You have died in screaming cold

All to find your thing of beauty

A thing of beauty

It has dominated your frail mind

It has left you alone in the ice

It has annihilated everything you are

But you still seek it

You still need it

This thing of beauty is the darkest image

It is the chasm of your dying

Yet you still love it as if it is God

A thing of beauty

It stands in the eyes of the lost
