Awakening to the sound
Of spectres in the dark
In sharpened tongues they whisper
Of the way home
A tapestry beyond comprehension
Begging me to be understood
And all the shining lights
They tell me something
Tell me I'm not alone

If only you could see it through my eyes
Call it a mirage, a trick of sight
The splendour of stars will take my breath away
I'll pay the cost for all the meddling
Fall into a long and sleepless night
The splendour of stars will take-

Step into the nothing
Strangers in the cold
Tearing the facade right down
Maybe I took the long way out
Maybe I've seen it all
Rusting out the Sun
Whatever breaks the mould
Anything to carry on
Maybe I want to save myself
Maybe there's something more

Curse me
I was never meant to know that prophecy

But if only you could leave yourself behind
Recalling a mirage kept deep inside
The splendour of stars will take my breath away
Don't call it loss
Call it a memory
Fall into a long and sleepless night
The splendour of stars will

Take me through the nothing
Strangers in the cold
Tearing the facade right down
Maybe I took the long way out
Maybe I've seen it all
Rusting out the Sun
Whatever breaks the mould
Anything to carry on
Maybe I want to save myself
Maybe there's something more

Would I erase all
Recollection out of spite
For the path I had to take and redesign?

Step into the nothing
Strangers in the cold
Tearing the facade right down
Maybe I took the long way out
Maybe I've seen it all
Rusting out the Sun
Whatever breaks the mould
Anything to carry on
Maybe I want to save myself
Maybe there's something more
