Finite Infinite

A state of slumber and void
No hourglass, no sand to fall
Silent and constant grey calm
No one to see, no one to tell
What was before
The one spark
When the eggshell broke

After the first cry, free to run and burn
Reaching the furthest boundaries of space
Waves of energy moulding their new reign
Primordial chaos tamed by soothing reins
And then, when harmony revealed her laws of consonance
Began the concert, the hymn of time

Hail now, past the stor
The sublime beauty of the cosmic song
A silent, hidden force
Feeding on itself since the universe was born

A restless quiver laying in a planet's heart
And in the blazing fire of a newborn Sun
Then, like a sudden wave rising from the deep
It will make the worlds collide
The stars explode and turn to dust
Then the ashes would combine, you'd see them
Burning, growing, spinning, falling
Giving a new galaxy its life
Making every death a new beginning

While one, still it's all
The immortal energy in a chain of mortal forms
Alive through the fall
The fiery phoenix, seeking a new way to sing and soar

One last death may end it all
Maybe this will keep gyring on
Through change, in a restless game of rise and fall
While one, still it's all
The immortal energy in a chain of mortal forms
Alive, through the fall
The eternal phoenix again will soar
