The Stars Sing All Night

Shadows of birds fly down the road
next to my car, their stories untold
and I’m so sick of this long drive
through your perfect mind
that I just want to crash this car
for what it’s worth, from what we’ve seen so far
and bleed for the rest of eternity
just to see what you think of me
and all the things I can’t believe

do the stars
do they dance for you alone?
in your car
when you just can’t go home?

the music is killing me
suffocating me
and I can’t even breathe
much less scream
don’t you know?
you know these things
you’re just a habit
a bad trip
I can’t quit
my eyes won’t fit
in coffee cups
the size of disks

do the stars
do they dance for you alone?
in your car
when you just can’t go home?

but you’re just swept under the rug
yesterday’s leftover dust
and decay
with a soul of rust
and a heart that beats too late

do the stars
do they dance for you alone?
in your car
when you just can’t go home?

do the stars dance
do they sing for you too?
oh, love, I hear them sing for you
