Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
It's no secret that our world is in darkness tonight
They say the sun is sometimes eclipsed by the moon
Y' know I don't see you when she walks in the room
[Verse 2]
It's no secret that a friend is someone who lets you help
It's no secret that a liar won't believe anyone else
They say a secret is something you tell one other person
So I'm telling you, child
[Chorus]
Love, we shine like a burning star
We're falling from the sky
A man will beg, a man will crawl
Tonight
On the sheer face of love
Like a fly on a wall
It's no secret at all
[Verse 3]
It's no secret that a conscience can sometimes be a pest
It's no secret ambition bites the nails of success
Every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief
All kill their inspiration and sing about the grief
[Chorus]
Oh love
Love, we shine like a burning star
We're falling from the sky
A man will rise, a man will fall
Tonight
From the sheer face of love
Like a fly from a wall
It's no secret at all
[Chorus]
Love, we shine like a burning star
We're falling from the sky
Tonight
[Chorus]
Love, we shine like a burning star
We're falling from the sky
A man will rise, a man will fall
Tonight
From the sheer face of love
Like a fly from a wall
It's no secret at all
[Outro]
It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
The universe exploding 'cause-a one man's lie
Look I gotta go, yeah, I'm running outta change
There's a lot of things if I could I'd rearrange
