Six Days

On the first day of nothing the Moon told him to go
Or punished he shall be with gusts of freezing cold

On the second day of nothing the Sun begged him to leave
Or she shall embrace him, burns deep under his skin

On the third day of nothing the planets screamed with rage
United they'd be and cast him out with flames

On the fourth day of nothing the devil said hello
Embracing all the gods he knew, the games they should begin

On the fifth day of nothing he felt his skin dissolve
And felt the rain pouring down although the sky was dry

The world it has vanished
All that's left are shards of stone
And one faithful man who hasn't yet let go
The universe swallowed every single thing he loved
And the planets don't know, oh, why he's holding on

Hold on to a fraction of your sanity
Hold on
Go on, live in consciousness eternally
Go on

On the sixth day of nothing salvation was announced
It rang aloud in his head only for him to hear
Surrounding him vast nothingness, the punishments at halt
And all that he could ask himself was: Why did I hold on?
