Dark star in the sky
I wanted to know you
Dark star in the sky
I wanted to be you

Your silent glow is so removed
From the things I need to prove
You’re just so far from home

Dark star in the sky
The colour of tomorrow
Dark star in the sky
A different kind of shadow

As I sit here on my roof
With broken prayers and fading youth
And the cracks below the truth
You’re just so far from home
You’re just so far from home

I could never say goodbye
To the voice that shaped this child
So strange how time runs dry
And still the story flows
Oh it flows

Dark star in the sky
I wanted to know you
Dark star in the sky
I wanted to be you

Your silent glow is so removed
From the things I need to prove
From the cracks below the truth
You’re just so far from home
You’re just so far from home
