Dead Star Shine |
| Underneath a pitch black sky, with the bright stars |
| My only guide through the cover of darkness |
| Lying on my back, staring up through a cloud of smoke |
| Was when I found a brief moment of catharsis |
| A path to follow, in a ride that I borrowed |
| I hit the road, looking for a brighter tomorrow |
| Live by the sword, but the pen’s mightier |
| I wonder if I’ll die tryna live by that motto |
| My dad let me in on one of life’s little secrets |
| A thing’s greatest strength is also its greatest weakness |
| In the very realisation of our achievements |
| Self-destruction on the path to completeness |
| I be the son of two teachers who each told me |
| When I got old enough not to follow in their footsteps |
| Said I should dream bigger 'cause they wished they coulda |
| And that teachers never seem to get the thanks they should get |
| Well I’m sorry Mum and Dad but I think I messed the plan up |
| 'Cause I’m starting to think maybe I am one |
| I stand up in front of these people, class is in session |
| Pay attention, requesting they put their hands up |
| I ask the questions but you have the answers |
| Yours is the voice that makes the anthem |
| I know it seems like nothing’s going to plan, but |
| Do you really think that this is random? |
| There I am looking up at the night |
| Getting lost in the stars |
| See how they burn so bright |
| But they seem so far |
| So many light years away they could die |
| And you wouldn’t know, still putting on a show |
| I don’t know if it’s a beautiful sight |
| Maybe my eye caught that dead star shine |
| Dead star shine, shine, shine dead star shine |
| Shine, shine, dead star shine |
| Shine, shine, dead star shine |
| In a minute you can get passed by |
| You can get passed by, shine, shine dead star shine |
| Shine, shine, dead star shine |
| Shine, shine, dead star shine |
| In a minute you can get passed by |
| So now I’m getting by with a little bit of kindness from strangers |
| Under the skyscraper lights I wander aimless |
| Making arrangements, to wake your neighbours |
| Tryna keep a straight face when they tell me I’m famous |
| Nah, my head in a mess of mixed messages |
| In the same breath I’m your hero or your nemesis |
| Soothsayer or conveyer of your sentiments |
| The object of your affections, even your therapist |
| 'Cause therapy is what this music is |
| A best friend to a moody kid, got me sitting on a |
| Black couch in a padded room singing the blues |
| In these tunes, no wonder I’m starting to think I’m fucking losing it |
| Sunday night revelations |
| Misguided attempts at medicinal meditation |
| Dunno if it’s hell, nothing or heaven waiting |
| In the meantime I’ma have me a celebration |
| I walked the city streets till my feet hurt from the calluses |
| Returned home to find my hands frozen with paralysis |
| At the end of the search was the catalyst |
| Took it back to the lab for further analysis |
| Heard the siren, saw the ambulance fly by |
| Maybe my eye caught a flicker in the night sky |
| Price of admission to the greatest of heights |
| And everybody got their own way to shine bright, right? |
| There I am looking up at the night |
| Getting lost in the stars |
| See how they burn so bright |
| But they seem so far |
| So many light years away they could die |
| And you wouldn’t know, still putting on a show |
| I don’t know if it’s a beautiful sight |
| Maybe my eye caught that dead star shine |
| Dead star shine, shine, shine dead star shine |
| Shine, shine, dead star shine |
| Shine, shine, dead star shine |
| In a minute you can get passed by |
| You can get passed by, shine, shine dead star shine |
| Shine, shine, dead star shine |
| Shine, shine, dead star shine |
| In a minute you can get passed by |
