Even the Stars

There's something about the emptiness in your heart

And there is something about the holiness of the stars

Why can't you feel, feel?

Feel how the dancer slowly moves on your skin

And how the skin is a sin, and maybe sometimes it could heal, heal

Heal all of the damage inside, all the shadows of the tears in your eyes

Oh why, oh why?

All the people on the tip of their tongues

Building halos for the sake of their lives

Oh why, oh why?

Even though the stars, they shine, they make you feel alright

They shine bright on your head, to find you standing in line

Lost in the desert where no one can hear your desire

Breathing the water like a mother would give up her life

There is something about the child that was once our god

And there is something about the games we played every night

Why don't you smile?

Smile in the mirror that took me years to believe

And how the tears on my sleeve, would they even make you cry, cry?

Cry all of the damage inside, all the shadows of the tears in your eyes

Oh why, oh why?

All the people on the tip of their tongues

Building halos for the sake of their lives

Oh why, oh why?

Even though the stars, they shine, they make you feel alright

They shine bright on your head, to find your standing in line

Lost in the desert where no one can hear your desire

Breathing the water like a mother would give up her life

Like a mother would give up her life

Even though the stars, they shine, they make you feel alright

They shine bright on your head, to find you standing in line

Lost in the desert where no one can hear your desire

Breathing the water like a mother would give up her life
