lyrics

HEY MR STARLIGHT

Hey Mr Starlight, you got me in your thrall
The sky starts trembling, the ancient voices call
But you see I can’t follow - the past is a living wall

Through all endeavor oblivion writes its name
Forever - tomorrow – forever, written in flame
And the way that I'm living, baby it’s a dirty shame

My heart starts beating, the hours begin to bleed
Your light burns a circle ‘round every word I read
But I been to the city, I got nothing left to need

Hey Mr Starlight, you got me in your thrall
My brain starts beating, the ancient voices call
But you see I can’t follow - the past is a living wall
