Sunset

1. I shine and burn toward the Earth as I turn.
I fall and get up. Many lessons do I learn.
Alas, as great as my heart burns red.
A fool am I still. I am cold. I am dead.

2. My rays have shined but to no avail,
My solar flares radiate for her my trail.
I turn and spin for all the wrong reasons.
The Moon has committed my heart into treason.

3. Eclipsed were our ideals, as black as our union.
Now I lay waste like stars in the ruin.
The time has come for me to go.
No longer will I shine. No longer will I glow.

4. It is clear that the skies no longer need me.
Therefore I must fade. My light, never will you see.
Farewell to the clouds who shadowed our love.
Farewell to the one who I once loved above.

5. Goodbye to the one who shared my light.
Goodbye to the one who made everything right.
I hope you find your new bright light.
For I must go now, and forever set into the night.
