Jejune Stars lyrics

Every new day is a gift, it's a song of redemption

Any expression of love is the way to return

To that place that I think of so often, but now never mention

The one the voice in the back of my head says that I don't deserve

Come fire, come water, come karma we're all in transition

The wheel of becoming erases the physical mind

Until all that remains is a staircase of misinformation

And the code we inherit, the basis, the essence of life

So I go, umbrella under my arm

Into the green of the radar

How'd it get so dark in the day?

It's just so bizarre

Is it true what we're made of?

then why do I hide from the rain?

Inside some cloudy nostalgia where there are no features

we look at ourselves through a porthole: the passage of time

See that sunny day that we snuck down, hid under the bleachers

Kissed as the band marched

Everything fell into line

So I go, umbrella under my arm

Into the green of the radar

How'd I get so lost? I'm amazed

It's just so bizarre

All the things I'm afraid of

Why do I hide from the rain?

Sure I have my doubts

But I know it now

We are Jejune stars

So it starts again

At our childhood's end

I'll die young at heart, heart...

So I go, umbrella under my arm

Into the green of the radar

How'd it get so dark in the day?

It's just so bizarre

If it's true what we're made of

Why do I hide from the rain?
