Starblind (2015 Remaster) Songtext
Take my eyes
The things I′ve seen in this world coming to an end
My reflection fades
I'm weary of these earthly bones and skin
You may pass through me
And leave no trace, I have no mortal face
Solar winds are whispering
You may hear me call
We can shed our skins
And swim into the darkened void beyond
We will dance among the world
That orbit stars that aren′t our sun
All the oxygen that trapped us
In a carbon spider's web
Solar winds are whispering
You may hear the sirens of the dead
Let the elders to their parley
Meant to satisfy our lust
Leaving Damacles still hanging
Over all their promised trust
Walk away from freedoms
Offered by the jailers in their cage
Step into the light, star tripping
Over mortals in their rage
Starblind with sun, the stars are one
We are the light that brings the end of night
Starblind with sun, the stars are one
We are with the goddess of the sun tonight
The preacher loses face with Christ
Religion's cruel device is gone
Empty flesh and hollow bones
Make pacts of love but die alone
The crucible of pain will forge
The blanks of sin begin again
You are free to choose a life to live
Or one that′s left to lose
Virgins in the teeth of God are meat
And drink to feed the damned
You may pass through me
And I will feel the life that you live less
Step into my light, star tripping
We will rage against the night
Walk away from comfort
Offered by your citizens of death
Starblind with sun, the stars are one
We are the light that brings the end of night
Starblind with sun, the stars are one
We are with the goddess of the sun tonight
Take my eyes for what I′ve seen
I will give my sight to you
You are free to choose whatever
Life to live or life to lose
Whatever God you know
He knows you better than you believe
In your once and future grave
You'll fall endlessly deceived
Look into our face
Reflected in the moon glow in your eyes
Remember you can choose to look
But not to see and waste your hours
You believe you have the time
But I tell you your time is short
I see your past and future
All the same and it cannot be bought
Starblind with sun, the stars are one
We are the light that brings the end of night
Starblind with sun, the stars are one
We are with the goddess of the sun tonight
Take my eyes for what I′ve seen
I will give my sight to you
You are free to choose whatever
Life to live or life to lose
Whatever God you know
He knows you better than you believe
In your once and future grave
You'll fall endlessly deceived
The preacher loses face with Christ
Religion′s cruel device is gone
Empty flesh and hollow bones
Make pacts of love but die alone
The crucible of pain will forge
The blanks of sin begin again
You are free to choose a life to live
Or one that's left to lose
The things I′ve seen in this world coming to an end
My reflection fades
I'm weary of these earthly bones and skin
You may pass through me
And leave no trace, I have no mortal face
Solar winds are whispering
You may hear me call
