Earthbound Starlight

[Verse 1]
What are you looking at? What do you see?
Is it the truth or a strange fantasy?
Whenever you're watching
You're changing the scene
And time is a place and this place is a song
Where mothers are distant and fathers are gone
He too may be watching
But he's not letting on

[Chorus]
He can't dry your eyes
Or say it's alright
Even though he might
And she can't kiss your cheek
As the days become weeks
No rewind, no repeats
Days, nights, wrongs, rights
Earthbound starlight

[Verse 2]
Hey, are you listening? What is the sound
Of things that you lose that you never have found?
Are you finding the way
Or turning around?
Dancer with destiny, tempter of fate
The life that you lived is only a taste
Sometimes, the sweetest
Is the time that you waste

[Chorus]
I won't dry your eyes
Or say it's alright
'Cause sometimes that's a lie
Even if she kissed your cheek
Still, the days become weeks
No rewind, no repeats

[Bridge]
Still your heart
Life is hard
Never easy
Believe me

[Verse 3]
There'll be no more questions, maybes or mights
Darkness descends, you've run out of light
But when you go blind
You get second sight
The deeper you dive
The greater the height

[Chorus]
So don't dry your eyes
Or say it's alright
Life is hard, it's a fight
Even if she kissed your cheek
Still the days become weeks
No rewind, no repeats
As the days become weeks
No rewind, no repeats
Days, nights, wrongs, rights
Earthbound starlight
