Lyrics for Cygnus X 1 by Rush:
| | | Artist: | Rush |
| | Album: | A Farewell To Kings | | Track: | Cygnus X 1 | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 143 | | | | Lyrics: | Book One --- The Voyage
Prologue
In the constellation of Cygnus
There lurks a
mysterious, invisible force
The Black Hole
Of Cygnus X-1
Six Stars of the
Northern Cross
In mourning for their sister's loss
In a final flash of
glory
Nevermore to grace the night...
1
Invisible
To telescopic
eye
Infinity
The star that would not die
All who dare
To cross her
course
Are swallowed by
A fearsome force
Through the void
To be
destroyed
Or is there something more?
Atomized --- at the core
Or through the Astral
Door ---
To soar...
2
I set a course just east of Lyra
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
The x-ray is her siren song
My ship cannot resist
her long
Nearer to my deadly goal
Until the Black Hole ---
Gains
control...
3
Spinning, whirling,
Still descending
Like a spiral
sea,
Unending
Sound and fury
Drowns my heart
Every nerve
Is torn
apart....
