Lyrics

Even stars will pass away
But not before they paint their flames
Across the canvas outer space
Our love will leave a mark
Against the dark

Against the dark
Against the dark

Years running out of me
A promise I could never keep
Nearsighted covenants
The soaring hopes of innocence
This beating in my chest
Feels infinite to me

And even stars will pass away
But not before they paint their flames
Across the canvas outer space
Our love will leave a mark
Against the dark

Against the dark
Against the dark

Can I hold on to you
Forever spring always in bloom
I curse the fading sun
Erasing our elysium
But these heartbeats we have left
Feels infinite to me

Even stars will pass away
But not before they paint their flames
Across the canvas
Outer space
Our love will leave a mark
Against the dark

Against the dark
Against the dark
