"Broadcast to the Stars"
by William J. Lever
The earth weeps silently.
All the while the fire burns.
A vibration of discourse coddling the cosmos.
Humming a lullaby of hushabied screams to nurture the newborn stars.
Blood dripping from the axis, scorched from the heat of a combusting nebula...

"To Infinity, and Your Mom!"
by William J. Lever
Wake the fuck up!
The earth weeps silently.
All the while the fire burns.
A vibration of discourse coddling the cosmos.
A vibration of discourse
Coddling the cosmos...
Humming a lullaby of hushabied screams
To nurture the newborn stars.
Blood dripping from the axis,
Scorched from the heat of a combusting nebula.
With a big bang, we slumber.
With a big bang, resting soundly in ignorance.
All the while all we love is burning.
Hear my vocal chords bubbling
My last scorching breath
The remembrance of who I am
Can you say the same?
Can you say... the same?
Hear my vocal chords bubbling
My last scorching breath
With a big bang, we slumber.
With a big bang, resting soundly in ignorance.
With a big bang, we slumber.
With a big bang, resting soundly in ignorance.
All we love is burning

"It's The End Of The World (And We Blew It)"
by William J. Lever
Look to the sky; see the start and know where the ending was wrought.
You brought this on yourself, self-destruction for a temporary satisfaction.
This is no healing process.
This is where you and I collide.
Dead stars in the desolate night sky.
I am the poet; the preacher of the world's demise.
I am Destronomer.
What in the world?
There exists no world without you in it.
Call me prophet, condemn me as zealot.
In the end we'll share in the same mess as one.
Brittle and fragile of mind.
It was the being that created me
That created your devil
God damn me for lack of divine.
Castrate my words, belittle the meaning and end the sentence.
Destroy my world.
Castrate my words, belittle the meaning and end the sentence.
Devalue me more with every loving reward you reap from me.
Castrate my words, belittle the meaning and end the sentence.
Does it make you feel good?
A beautiful stringing together with catastrophic deliverance.
Hush, no more words.
If I speak they will save you, and in turn they will destroy me.
Turning my back to you, I choose to save myself.
Self-perseveration.
Mankind's ultimate choice.
That brought the end.
Castrate my words, belittle the meaning and end the sentence.
Destroy my world.
Castrate my words, belittle the meaning and end the sentence.
Devalue me more with every loving reward you reap from me.
Castrate my words, belittle the meaning and end the sentence.
Look to the sky; see the start and know where the ending was wrought.
You brought this on yourself, self-destruction for a temporary satisfaction.
This is no healing process.
This is where you and I collide.
Dead stars in the desolate night sky.
I am the poet; the preacher of the world's demise.
I am Destronomer.

Doomsayer's Prayer

"Doomsayer's Prayer"
by William J. Lever
I would sooner decay than breath an ounce of life back into you.
The scars of desire rest deep seated in your breast,
You're speaking of sweet nothings
Where whispered deceit lies behind the veil.
Forebearer of the hurt, withstanding of some scorched soul to blame.
Attached it's burden to you.
The wounds that will never heal, I did my best to treat you.
The words you spoke were poison
Falling to ashen lullabies in my brain.
In my brain...
For all you swore would come to pass, the burden laid bare is mine.
To sweep and sort the sands of the hourglass.
For all you swore, intentions left to empty frames.
For me to fill in the meaning, painting my own closure.
In shades of blinding red
The road to hell's been paved.
See yourself off the edge of the earth.
See yourself off the edge of the earth...
I'd carve the future into this tree of life.
But there is no future for us now, and life is soon to pass.
Rage manifests,
The fire in my throat overflows to words of wisdom, doomsayer's prayer.
Doomsayer's prayer.
I'd carve the future into this tree of life.
But there is no future for us now, and life is soon to pass.
Rage manifests,
The fire in my throat overflows to words of wisdom...
Forebearer of the hurt, withstanding of some scorched soul to blame.
Attached it's burden to you...

Write Me Out

"Write Me Out"
by William J. Lever
In a galaxy this vast
How can you think yourself so significant?
You open arms wide to claim dominion
Absent mindedly waiting for the void to swallow you
You want, you want it all
Give you the mountains, you'd want the sea
You want, you want it all
Swallow, in emptiness devour
My only hope to watch you choke
Inhaling brimstone, exhaling smoke
(chorus)
You like a sad story
Well this one's the worst
You want a pity party
Walk to the edge of the earth
Tear away with pen to pad
Discarded words fade to ash
You said that this would be the end of my story
So go on, write, write..
Write me out
You like my words?
Here are the last ones you'll get
The world is ending
There's no more room for make believe
Spent most your days pretending
Swore to me that this would be alright
You swore
You swore
You swore you knew
The wound you've opened
Leaking cancerous dark, spreading
You swore
You swore
You swore you knew
You swore you'd protect me
To dancing lights cast upon an ocean of stars
You like a sad story
Well this one's the worst
You want a pity party
Walk to the edge of the earth
Tear away with pen to pad
Discarded words fade to ash
You said that this would be the end of my story
So go on, write, write..
Write me out
Nebulizers beget nebulas
Nebulizers beget nebulas...
If love was a lie
Fix what's broken inside
Last chance
Say goodbye
Nebulizers beget nebulas...

"Journey Of The Nebulus Spheres"
by William J. Lever
If we know better
Why do we resist it?
If we know better
Why with blind eyes
Do we willingly suffer the worst?
You wrote of better
In your fiction and history books...
On the precipice
Of a higher calling
Recognition like
An electric spark
Ignited through his synapses
Hair raised to static upon the nape
Skin shivers with the charge
Of a destiny fulfilled
With a blink of his eyes
Unlocking the portal
Releasing the spheres
Do we concede before defeat
To meet the void answerless
A light set by a glimmer of hope
(Reignite the flame)
Do we concede before defeat...
(Conqueror of the unconscious)
Conqueror of the unconscious
(Parasitic celestial)
Parasitic celestial
Born of indifference
Weakened by purpose
A rot set with positive change
Do we concede before defeat
To meet the void answerless
A light set by a glimmer of hope
(Reignite the flame)
Do we concede before defeat
To fold before we answer
A question long since asked
(Reignite the flame)
To fold before we answer
To meet the void answerless...
"If we know better
Why do we resist it?
If we know better
Why with blind eyes
Do we willingly suffer the worst
You wrote of better
In your fiction and history books
All the world's a stage
Beset by a personified goodness
Scream it out
If you know better
Be the change.
Be the change."
One final confrontation.
For the whole of creation.
One final confrontation.
For the lot of us.
To defeat him is to know us better
To defeat him is to evolve
To defeat him is to change our ways
For him to win is the end of us all
By a simple act of nothing at all

Gravity Bleed

"Gravity Bleed"
by William J. Lever & Chris M. Lyons
"The hull has been breached by debris
There is precious little oxygen left
Residual recourses were lost in impact
I suppose, I should count myself grateful...
Quicker this way
*ahem* anyway
If this proves to be my last transmission
I just want to say
On behalf of everyone
As the last one left
I'm sorry..."
(Ahhhhh... eee-ya!)
The fight for life has been lost
Extinction on a grander scale
Than the gratuitous violence
We inflicted
Through a wash of red, all the color bled
The aftermath rendered in greyscale
The bigger picture of a harmonious existence
Bleached out by a supernova
Wading in the ink well
To see if true colors change
Imagined a hue of blue, purple, and green
To see what we wish was there
When we know our souls will always be this black
Hole punch against a cardboard cutout
Pitch black to a pinprick of light
You swore the change was temporary
Based your belief in theatrics
Praying to a magician who doesn't hear you
Last call to blot out the sun
Temporary tattoos
Over our eyelids
Making believe we're beings
Higher than we ever should be
Higher - than we ever should be...
"If the colors blend
I will never find a way..."
If the colors blend
I will never find a way
To make it out someday
You dream of distant worlds
I dream of a place where this pain will cease
Gravity bleed
Who will draw a celestial map?
To find the unmaker
To find Destronomer
On the white dwarf, resting upon his crystal throne
Ruling in whispers, conquering the unconscious
It is the harp's melody that calls us
To our final rest
To our final rest
To our final rest...
Your savior called to cancel his appearance
The light of a thousand suns
To wipe the slate clean of this cosmic wasteland
Just admit Earth is probably the Florida of the universe
Hole punch against a cardboard cutout
Pitch black to a pinprick of light
You swore the change was temporary
Based your belief in theatrics
Last call to blot out the sun
If the colors blend
I will never find a way
To make it out someday
You dream of distant worlds
I dream of a place where this pain will cease
Gravity bleed
If the colors blend
I will never find a way
To make it out someday
(Brace for impact!)
You dream of distant worlds
I dream of a place where this pain will cease
Gravity bleed
Gravity bleed
Gravity bleed...
