Dying Star

Little empires that you make

See them and despair

There’s nothing time won’t take

All the biggest baddest dreams of billionaires;

It’s all dog meat and dancing bears

And I’m burning up

I’m flaming out

Like a dying star

Bitter words in the night

In the telephone light

And I wanted you to believe in how real this used to seem

And not just flaming out

Like a dying star

Now watch a real man ruminate

I threw my ring in to the reeds along the lake

And took a picture from the car

It’s quite a feeling when you don’t know who you are

But it’s my life

I must be the star

And I wonder now

If this is suffering I could monetise

My bitter content in the night

In the telephone light

And I wanted you just to believe in how real this used to seem

And not just flaming out like a dying star

And I’m burning up

I’m flaming out

Like a dying star

Bitter words in the night

In the telephone light

And I wanted you to believe in how real this used to seem

And not just flaming out

Like a dying star

And not just flaming out

Like a dying star

And not just flaming out

Like a dying star
