A star.
Shining bright
in the blackness of night
a wish and a tear.

go towards the star and go back in time
ten thousand light years away
observe from afar what once was
Breathe
cold in the darkness
in the cold steel of night
in the stars past the sun

daylight fading.
as you move away
away from the smiles
from the laughs
from the tears
from a thousand hopes
in a thousand pieces each
left lying naked on the floor
crying and not asking
not asking for a nod or a care
But just wanting
wanting something better

Drive away along that snake of a road
away from the sun.
To the hills, to the stars
getting closer

A thousand galaxies away.
Closing in.
On a giant star.
When does it get too hot?
How high is too high?
Wings of wax too frail to touch the sky
Flying down into the sun

Leap.

Into Vanilla Sky
Oh.
A thousand clouds.
Sail away.
