Album: Losing Weight, Gaining Ground

Lost In The Stars

Walked by a patch of water in which I saw the sun
It made me think of you, & how far you'd really gone
Then I heard the sound of wings, of a bird that didn't sing
He held his breath for you, that's something that I can't do
That bird didn't know a sad song & when I whistled one he flew along
I guess what scared him was the sound, he left two feathers on the ground

I left them i the earth, guess all beauty turns to dirt, but
I will wait for you till the stars fall down into my backyard
I will wait for you, as the sun burns down upon my back
I'm lost in the stars
Love is a battlefield, love is murder
Pacifism is suicide, what can I do but hurt her?
The stars aren't falling & neither are you & I
The stars are calling, but we're not calling anymore
Let's start another war [repeat chorus]
Once we were free to ram these lands & cut right through the fog

Now that they're gone & we're older, we stalk these streets like lost dogs
