stars fall on my head every single night
shine me back to heartbroken glass from four years before
i walk home
i walk home
i walk home

who will take care of me when i come home?
wings scrape dusty concrete constructing a new place for me to rest my head
i fly high i fly high i fly high

bodies soon caress winds flighty and low
coming closer to heaven with every flash of known light
i love wild i love wild i love wild

words clash on unstoppable street corners
slamming up against strangers whose eyes never before looked
i pray loud
i pray loud
i pray loud

hands sing through the flames
firing off at the mouth busting veins with haste
i dance free
i dance free
i dance free

it's not the pale moon that excites me

i used to revel in your light
your shine used to blind me
brights in the dead of the night

i only ever wanted to be close to you
my only wish was my desire was my purpose
was my downfall

if you never wanted me why didn't you just tell me so
if all you ever wanted was for me to go
how could you let me hold on for so long
if you knew what i didn't know why did you lead me on

something like the promise of you
the wish of kissing you again
i had it in mind to lose it all
my peace and my mind

dear angel eyes
i ran into your memory and realized something
the look in your eyes is
not as much as it was before

i can't hold you here in this heart of mine anymore
can't want the nearness of you
can't debase me any longer
the thrill and delight of you vanished with the darkness of your light

so i'm gone, gone, gone
gone away
