Vision melts, the senses fly
When you stare into the sky at night
Shooting through the stratosphere
When everything else disappears in light
Flashes of a starlit dream
Start racing through your mind
Convince you that the sky is where you're bound
Suddenly the weight pulls you
back to earthly life
you curse the feet that chain you to the ground
One day I'll be up there too, right?
Call out to the blessed souls,
The lucky ones, both young and old, who know.
Arm them with their diamond rings
Those chosen to receive their wings let go.
Born into a lower plane,
Do we even have a chance?
Was the stage already set when we arrived?
Are we forever meant to crawl
While others get to dance?
And spend our whole lives gazing at the sky?
Stargazers crowd the ground tonight
To the heavens we all look
Because it might one day be our time
They're the lights that guide the lost
Because the stars will always shine
