Brother won’t you pray for me for all that lies ahead
Keep me from the wrongs i’m bound to write
And sister it’ll stay with me, all the things you said
As the lights go down and i kiss the world good night.

Andhere i’m standing high above the water
A fallen angel stares into my eyes
And late night bars and big old cars
Crash inside my head
And shooting stars and twisted
Stripes collide.

Help me, help me make it through the night
Was it mediocrity that scared me half away?
Or was it just the path life’s meant to take?

So friend please have a drink on me for all that’s come my way
As the lights go down and i kiss the world good night
And shooting stars and twisted stripes collide
Help me, help me make it through the night
And here i’m standing high above the water.

A fallen angel stares into my eyes
And late night bars and big old cars
Crash inside my head
And shooting stars and twisted stripes collide
Help me, help me make it through the night.

And shooting stars and twisted stripes collide
Help me, help me make it through the night.

Andhere i’m standing high above the water
A fallen angel stares into my eyes
And late night bars and big old cars
Crash inside my head, crash inside my head.

And shooting stars and twisted stripes collide
Help me, help me make it through the night.
