Stardust Universe

In a world full of pretty things You carry out only what you bring in Square your shoulders Lift your pack And lay your feet back down on the track This is the part where you may want to give in And I will remind you that we both once said We were born to stumble and to learn In a stardust covered universe We demand the impossible And tomorrow is earned Empty apartment, rumbling trains Eastside village looking good for its age An ounce of pleasure so quickly became Another morning with a pound of pain This is the part where you will say nothing's wrong I will remind you that you will be strong We were born to struggle and to yearn In a stardust covered universe Where you will find troubles But you will not be the first As you travel the white line, stripping the gears Eyes on the dashboard, hands on the wheel Running away like you do You've got to slow your engines When God is in pursuit Under a streetlight I call your name It's only darkness, it's not that late Now stop your sleeping, pull the blinds And pour your future in this cup of mine This is the part where you will dig your heels in And build a tower where your sadness is You were born, and soon you will return From a stardust covered universe Where the end is certain But it will not be rehearsed
