Dark Enough to See the Stars

LETRA

Dark Enough to See the Stars

Why was I ever born and why did God make me?
He must've been high when he dropped me down here
All of my neighbors have shut off their porch lights
Like smoke from their chimneys, I'll soon disappear

It's dark enough to see the stars
I wonder who and where we are
As the moon goes 'round the Earth
I see it all from where I perch
It's dark enough to see the stars
I wonder who and where we are
This solitude is all I know
And as the years pass by it grows

When it's high noon I go blind from the light beams
Refracting off snow like the swings of a sword
When the night falls, I am grateful for blackness
It blankets my sadness, it's my lone reward

It's dark enough to see the stars
I wonder who and where we are
As the moon goes 'round the Earth
I see it all from where I perch
It's dark enough to see the stars
I wonder who and where we are
This solitude is all I know
And as the years pass by it grows

I don't want to die alone
But, Lord, I'm running out of hope
I don't want to die alone
Lord, I'm running out of hope

It's dark enough to see the stars
I wonder who and where we are
As the moon goes 'round the Earth
I see it all from where I perch
It's dark enough to see the stars
I wonder who and where we are
This solitude is all I know
And as the years pass by it grows
