Cassiopeia

Come in close now, it's time to tell the story

Long ago and so many years before we

Ever were, ever dreamed we even could be

There was her and her very first heartbeat



All alone in the corner of the night sky

Spiral bones of a supernova starlight

Fell in love with another burning bright

She dreamed of a way to ignite



CHORUS:

She said, "Tonight, come on, come on collide

Break me to pieces, I

I think you're just like heaven"

"Why, come on, come on collide

Let's see what a fire feels like

I bet it's just like heaven"

(Just like heaven)

(Just like heaven)



Such a shame

Nowhere near even a near miss

Lightyears away

From the hope of being sun-kissed

Anchored home in her interstellar sea

But, poor lonely Cassiopeia



So she sighs and she burns with desperation

Learns to cry over love of constellations

Then the spark from a star shooting too close

They both smiled

What a day to explode



CHORUS



Long ago, in a sky built before us

A supernova grew up to be stardust
