Calliope, smile, and relight the stars now
Light them for all to see
I don’t know about you but,
I’ve been around this block (once or twice)
And I’ve seen it all before
All this around me,
Well it leaves me wanting,
and frankly I’m wanting something more
Calliope, smile, and relight the stars now
Light them for all to see
Silken semantics,
Swollen metaphor,
Hyperbole to soar beyond the sun
Please, Calliope, bring me,
Bring me something more
Your grace I ask you give me when the time comes
Calliope, smile, and relight the stars now
Light them for all to see
