Cover art for Pearl of the Stars lyrics by Coheed and Cambria

Ok so I'll give what I think of this, If you haven't read the book Year of the Black Rainbaw SPOILERS! Anyways there is a chapter in the book titled Pearl of the Stars. This chapters tells of what is going though Pearls mind after being kidnapped by Wilhelm Ryan. They have locked her in a glass coffin that is being suspended above a deep pit. Now clearly this song dosnt sound anything like I just described but my guess is that this is not from Pearls view but from Leonards view. The chapter before this named World of Lines (hint hint another song) Leonard found out about Pearls fate and of his duty to develop the Monstar. So Im guessing this song is him weeping over the missing Pearl. Im done :)
