Dark Stars

I looked into your eyes

For the last time

This story half written

Never to be read

And as I closed the book

My fingers burned

With black soot

While this song it slowly bled

And the dark stars in your eyes

Circled my heart

With their beautiful lies

That kept me coming back to you

And as the sun went down

We smoked a wooden cigarette

You blew rings

Just like the hoops you led me through

Though your kisses were sweet

I said good bye, I said good bye

The way you played this game

Was running me dry, running me dry

You felt like coming home

To a place I had forgotten

Made of sweet songs

And your hands upon my head

But there was no light that shone

The doors were locked

Secrets unspoken sf ghosts

That still lingered in your bed

Though your kisses were sweet

I said good bye, I said good bye

The way you played this game

Was running me dry, running me dry

This was supposed to be a love song

But now the words you'll never know

Cause we were running in circles

The only way to save us was to let go

And if we meet again

I'll roll up all your kisses in a cigarette

And blow smoke rings at the moon
