Fallen Stars
Have you found yourself again
Wanting to be saved
So many things you wanted
So many things you gave
Now here you are again
Like a sad eyed beggar-man
Look’ in for another way out
But no one understands
Your weary brain is numb
Because the answer isn’t clear
The story of your downfall
Made the headlines of the year
Superman has died
The laughing lady cried
And you join the ranks
Of other fallen stars
Your name is just a memory
Even to yourself
The story of your life
Is on a dusty shelve
It all seems so vital
This tale spun without a title
As we move through the days
The reasons are mislaid
And replacements file in one by one
I'd say its just begun
We've heard the voice calling out to us all
We know who we've heard and we know what we saw
The placid faces look on, To amazed with the facts
Taking the easy way out, Choose to turn their backs
Well don’t spend so much time asking yourself
What this has to do with you
Cause it isn’t a what, I’d say it's more of a who?
Ideology with all of its theology
Can't tell meanings we have to know
Which is, Where are we at, And where do we have to Go?
