"Universal Curse" /--

	Once, upon a gaze
        Lived a boy, for the girl with a chestful of fire 
	Would they know, of desire?
	
	And what, of harlequin? 
	Just an ancient child, forgotten stripped of his planet  
	All for a rose, in the strangest... violent kingdom   
	
	The universal... 
	Signs, ignited too soon  
	Through… the curse and the fear 	
	Songs outlast the pursuit... 

	Lost… as in a dream
	Rude awakened twins, and a love still sad yet so new  
	Imagining, a disaster
	(Finding never)

	Then on moonlit streets
	Singin' out the call to the other     
	Serenity's, but a moment... 'round surrender

	Universal...
	Hearts, afire too soon  
	Through… the blood and a tear 	
	A light, a sparkle, a tune 

	(Singing) 

	Of… us.  

        (Finding never)

--/ "At The Heart Of A Star"

	And as the dust is settling	
	A lost essential isn't equal to the cure

	Then as the dust is settling,
	The loveless legends laugh the last forevermore 

	'Cause nothing ever lasts in here
	When you're awake

        You're all insane

	Feels alright... for the moment 
	I see clear 
	Past does its best... to smoke up this serene 
	Paradise...

	And when the host does settle in
	At the heart of a... star.

I feel like all three of us must have fallen in love with APC around the same time this was released, when we were a lot younger. Being where each of are now musically, I guess this is our maturest tribute to their beautiful music, and how we hear it now. ~ I
