Black Star Lyrics - Swansong - Carcass

(Music: Regadas) 

(Lyrics: Walker) 

Black star, jewel of the night 

Black star, burning bright 

Magnificent sun, a beacon burning 

Five pointed coal, a guide eternal 

Black star, five pointed coal 

Black star, the cosmic soul 

Shining opaque, celestial furnace 

Glittering dark, a sun in mourning 

Black star, where light never shines 

Black star won't you be my guide? 

A dead sun for where the light never shines 

Shine on... 

Twinkle, twinkle black star 

Shine on... 

Black star, darken the skies 

Forever burn, never to die 

An ebony flame, a sun infernal 

Nemesis of the night, my own dark angel 

Black star, jewel of the night 

Black star, so cruel, so bright 

A glorious sun, with warmth so healing 

Glittering dark, a sun in mourning 

Black star, where light never shines 

Black star won't you be my guide? 

A dead sun for where the light never shines 

Shine on... 

Twinkle, twinkle black star 

Shine on... black star 

(lead) 

Shine on... 

Twinkle, twinkle black star 

Shine on...
