Lyrics
When it Stars (Glimmer)
?For my part I know nothing with any certainty,
but the sight of the stars makes me dream??
Vincent VanGogh
The sky is dark
The sun is gone
The hopes I had have now moved on
You?d think I might
Just say goodnight
And quit my useless hopening
Your cuts run deep
And fill my head
They furrow through my years in red
You?d think I?d die
I wonder why
My secret keeps my soul alive
?Cause when it stars outside
I?m open, wide-eyed
Can?t believe I?m
Alright inside
?Spite of you
The things you do
I somehow come out shining bright and new
Glimmering
Yes I am glimmering
Starlight fills me up inside
Where once I used to run and hide
I?ve made a fortress right in there
Filled with night air
My sight is strong
The night is long
It charges up my batteries
It makes me run
It is my sun
I take my comfort in its quiet
[quiet]
And when it stars outside I?m
Open, wide-eyed
Can?t believe I?m
Alright inside
?Spite of you
The things you do
I somehow come out shining bright and new?
You say I?m wrong
You say love?s gone
You say a lot of stupid things
You say I don?t fulfill you
Would it kill you to open up your soul?
Despite what science says, I believe that stars can fill black holes
They do
It?s true
It just takes time
[instr]
The sky is dark
The sun is gone
The hopes I had have now moved on
You?d think I might
Just say goodnight
And quit this useless hopening
But there are stars
Glimmering
Amnesty delivering me
Crisp night air
And solace there
I?m wholly hopeful holding back despair
?just glimmering
Yeah when it stars outside
I?m open, wide-eyed
Can?t believe I?m
Alright inside
?Spite of you
The things you do
I somehow come out shining bright and new.
Glimmering.
Yes I am glimmering.
You say I?m wrong
You say love?s gone
You say a lot of stupid things.
