You started playing on the wrong team

While we were playing a different game

You started pulling on the wrong strings

And you can pull till the levy breaks

Or spend a lifetime

Trying to heal the pain, until the moment you fade away

And then your back breaks

Underneath the weight, and your moment just slips away

Storm chaser, come back around

Stargazer, never to be found

We had to duck down

Avoiding sure despair, while you were going over our heads

We turn the lights out

Cause it's a dark, dark town and we can sleep till we all drop dead

We burn our minds out

Trying to fix mistakes, so we can drown out the bitter taste

We lay our guns down

Try to settle the stakes, cause we're all going down in flames

Storm chaser, come back around

Risk-taker, never going down

Stargazer, never to be found

There were no stars

When the earth went black

It was such a dark, dark day

And such a cold, cold night

But in this dark town

We thought we saw a sign

And it looked like

No building shelter

Just building fences

Start burning bridges and arming your defenses

More private prisons

Cancel the pensions

Exploit the tension

Ain't no need to question why this dark town didn't have a light

Bring it on

Alright

And they tell you

Pay no attention

Harbor resentment

For everyone who don't look just like you do

Communication don't mend a differece

Your civic duty is never, ever listen

This dark town ain't got no stars

Stargazer, ah
