Burning Star

If no one gave you the tools to make a real life
They delivered most of the parts, but you couldn't get it right
If your mind is blind to laws you made in the past
If the boredom of trivial roads lead to a crash

Somewhere up above the clouds
Among a million prayers
Flies a little hope of mine
If someone out there cares

Back on earth, I see it here
It shines it's endless light
Alone like us in empty space
The burning star
The burning star of life

There are dreams on earth you need three lives to fulfill
And there are lives you've lived till the end by standing still
We've got too many lives at either end of a knife
We've had plenty of lives cut short by what we carry inside

Tell me something I don't know
Maybe I've lived too long
I've got a bad case of I told you so
And its hard to hold my tongue

Back on earth, I see it here
It shines it's endless light
Alone like us in empty space
The burning star
The burning star
The burning star of life
