All human frailties dissolve before the sublime terror of the universe.
lyrics
I'm walking home at 10 past 2
The rain pounds spikes into my skull
I've been on the town every night this week
But there's something wrong. I've lost my way
I can't afford my taxi fare
The streets deceive my eyes. O Lord, please aid me
Oh where's my, where's my
Where's my wandering star?
Oh how I, how I wonder where you are
Mortgage comes and paycheque goes
Resentment builds for twenty years
The behemoth sleeps in my bed tonight
My children stare with open hate
And hatred stares back from my eyes
No longer will I hear their lies. I'll follow. Follow
Oh where's my, where's my
Where's my wandering star?
Oh how I, how I wonder where you are
Take me, Take me from this cold blue Earth
Blue Earth
Blue Earth
Blue Earth
The bile rushes up and spills out of my mouth
And everything goes numb
And the pavement rockets up
And the blood fills up my lungs
And the drivers drive on by
And the walkers walk on by
And the darkness closes in
But why should I be scared?
'Cause I'm. 'Cause I'm
'Cause I'm a wandering star
So many stars light up the sky
And half as many stars have died
Say in which half you reside
Oh how I wonder where you are
