"February/Stars" lyrics

"February/Stars"

[February:]

February, here we are again
Tired of chasing, running, following
All of the dust and dirt and light
Explode into the dawn
Explode into the dawn

If arms and legs have anything to say
Of missing miles on boardwalks out to the middle of the sky
There is an earthly myth we took
To get here by

February, here we are again
Tired of chasing, running into the weather and wind
There is an ochre morning star above
There is a place to stop and rest and finally be done
Finally be done
Finally be done...

[Stars:]

Galaxy
Ever-shiningly
Looking back into the depths of me

Empty sea
It's just you and me
And we stretch out to infinity

Gravitate
Collapse under the weight
I've been running up and down a dark staircase

And suddenly
Stars are under me
All the dust and dirt and light are circling

Time will see
Every tide recede
And I'm no one if ever I was me

End scene
It's just you and me
Only waves and insects in the breeze
