Lyrics

Heather O?Rourke

She?s moving around and around
Her face is a star that is trapped in the pockets of morning
Since the glowing disguise cut the reigns in her struggle for life
Though the light is her temple, the night holds her close
It?s ironic that it was the demons who gave her the name she wanted the most

She?s moving around and around
Crossing paths with the ones who hold nothing but all her possessions
While their guilt of contentment is buried in everyday life
She borrows a mask from the guiser and sun
And she sits by the trail of enchantment and fate that just seems to take every young one

Inside what they call paradise
Human voices take from every fragment of pain they were under
They dissolve into words as the palest morning arrives
And these words that are spoken are for her alone
They slip through her vale like a comb through her hair as she wipes off her tears with a stone

And midnight is new to this place
The shadows are long and the pain has been dulled out by thunder
That breeze in her soul is a door and she wants to go home
Then she steps from the shadow but no one can look
We just sit with our days in our minds as we're lighting a candle for Heather O?Rourke
