1. And for but a moment, we were gods...
2. While we lost ourselves in conjured memories forgot
3. Before we slipped away from present thoughts
4. As reality first begun to fade
5. I found myself amongst the stars beyond my comfort’s lot
6. And for but a moment, we were gods
7. While we watched the universe erase
8. Entire concepts like the Olmec’s faces made of rocks
9. Before we slipped away from present thoughts
10. I spilled into my wings and flew with grace,
11. Things once large stood small below while soaring swift aloft
12. And for but a moment, we were gods...
13. But then my feathers ruffled with malaise—
14. I crashed into Yggdrassil where I died and felt the rot
15. Before we slipped away from present thoughts
16. Where I wept because you found me safe
17. Amongst the quiet moments which our memories forgot
18. And for but a moment, we were gods.
19. Before we slipped away from present thoughts.
