It's long past sunset

The weather's less than mild

I gotta walk, but most of where I go is

Less than a mile away, and I

Miss the quiet

I miss the dark

I miss the things we had before we fell apart

In the shadows of the flicker-fading

There's no one celebrating

There's no more solstices

You wonder why that is

When all of us don't like how the world turns

Plotting out our lives on detailed charts

Though some of you may want the world to burn

The rest of us wish we could see the stars

Though its hard to see through all the fake lights

But the stars are out tonight

The stars are out tonight

The stars are out tonight

Tripping on pavement cracks

Sidewalk's uneven

The faces come and go

But there all talking leaving

'cause they say they hate it here

I wouldn't disagree

But if you think the skies are clearer there

You'll be lost when all you see are

Shadows in the flicker-fading

And no one celebrating

There's no more solstices

You wonder why that is

When all of us don't like how the world turns

Plotting out our lives on detailed charts

Though some of you may want the world to burn

The rest of us wish we could see the stars

Though its hard to see through all the fake lights

But the stars are out tonight

The stars are out tonight

The stars are out tonight

Though its hard to see through all the fake lights

But the stars are out tonight
