Текст пісні
In a sea of starlight, before the breath of time
Floating through the ether, a spirit, a design
Whispers of existence on a cosmic breeze
Choosing my own story from celestial trees
The guides show me a star map of a hundred different roads
Woven threads of sorrow, treasures and abodes
Each path a different color, a unique and fragile art
I trace the line that promises to break and mend a heart
They warned me of the shadows, the struggle and the coming fight
The long and lonely hours of the soul's dark night
This is my Cosmic Contract, signed in stars so bright
I needed the deep darkness to remember the light
I chose the heavy lessons, the tears I'd have to cry
To learn what it means to live, beneath a mortal sky
I picked the loving parents who would also bring me pain
The bittersweet forgiveness, the sunshine and the rain
Picking out the heartbreaks and the heavy, heavy loads
To find my grace and courage on those winding, human roads
They warned me of the shadows, the struggle and the coming fight
The long and lonely hours of the soul's dark night
This is my Cosmic Contract, signed in stars so bright
I needed the deep darkness to remember the light
I chose the heavy lessons, the tears I'd have to cry
To learn what it means to live, beneath a mortal sky
For a moment, I falter, a flicker of cosmic fear
Is the promise of the sunrise worth a single fallen tear?
But a deeper knowing answers, a truth that I've always known
A soul can only blossom from the hardest seeds I've sown
This is my Cosmic Contract, signed in stars so bright!
I needed the deep darkness to remember the light!
I chose the heavy lessons, the tears I'd have to cry
To learn what it means to live, beneath a mortal sky!
And so I fall to Earth now
The contract starts tonight
Remembering the darkness
To find the light... the light
