Stardust

(album: Thirteen - 2014)

We could spend our time
Filling up on life
And be empty
Following the wrong signs
Straight up to the front lines
'Til the shots run out
'Cos we all bought in
From kings and queens
To beggars and thieves
We're under fire
No more fantasy
Just reality
While I hold my breath and fight
You're never gonna come down to earth
You're never gonna realize
What you're ultimately worth
Just a grain of sand
On a blue dot in the universe
In a rare loss for words
You know to be alive
Is a blessing and a curse
We're all the same
We're stardust in the universe
Still every night
The moonlight turns into a sunrise
For a new day
But as the minutes unwind
How are you spending your time
'Til the shots run out
'Cos we all bought in
From kings and queens
To beggars and thieves
We're under fire
No more fantasy
Just reality
While I hold my breath and fight (for life)
You're never gonna come down to earth
You're never gonna realize
What you're ultimately worth
Just a grain of sand
On a blue dot in the universe
In a rare loss for words
You know to be alive
Is a blessing and a curse
We're all the same
We're stardust in the universe
Everything is connected
For better and for worse
We're prisoners of our genetics
Evolution in reverse
So count all your blessings
And one inescapable curse
That we're born just to die
And fly away
Like stardust in the universe
You're never gonna come down to earth
You're never gonna realize
What you're ultimately worth
Just a grain of sand
On a blue dot in the universe
In a rare loss for words
You know to be alive
Is a blessing and a curse
We're all the same
We're stardust in the universe
You're never gonna come down to earth
You're never gonna realize
What you're ultimately worth
Just a grain of sand
On a blue dot in the universe
In a rare loss for words
You know to be alive
Is a blessing and a curse
We're all the same
We're stardust in the universe
