Lyrics:

Hidden from the naked eye
Beyond the view of telescopes
Behind the diamonds in the sky
From where the oldest light elopes
Nothing written in the waves
The signal's clear, the picture's black
Nothing standing in the way
The anti-matter stares straight back
Nothing to see but diamonds and diamonds and diamonds and diamonds and diamonds and diamonds and diamonds and diamonds

Objects brighter than the sun
Shift to red and fade away
A universe built on the run
Eclipsed so easily by the day
Nothing written in the waves
Event horizon, no return
Nothing standing in the way
Perhaps these things cannot be learned
Nothing there but diamonds and diamonds and diamonds and diamonds and diamonds and diamonds and diamonds and diamonds

Kickstarter reward for Michael Orr, 2012

Michael Guy Bowman: (SoundCloud description)

Commissioned by Michael Orr for the fundraiser and all that.

Here's the request: "A song about... space? More specifically black holes, dark matter, objects slipping beyond the horizon of the visible universe. Things we observe without seeing, and things we will never be able to observe."
