I stayed to show you the stars But as it turns out, you fell asleep I shouted and I screamed But my cries wouldn't wake your breath Oh, I curse your being, For it makes me all the more human. So I split the earthly seams To lay you beneath her sheets But your hands, they wouldn't let me go And my heart was tucked in with yours Oh, I miss your being, For it makes me all the more human. How the flower's songs glide gently upon the breeze! And your hues grow vibrantly throughout all my days! Oh, I love your being, For it makes me all the more human.

I stayed to show you the stars
I stayed to show you the stars But as it turns out, you fell asleep I shouted and I screamed But my cries wouldn't wake your breath Oh, I curse your being, For it makes me all the more human. So I split the earthly seams To lay you beneath her sheets But your hands, they wouldn't let me go And my heart was tucked in with yours Oh, I miss your being, For it makes me all the more human. How the flower's songs glide gently upon the breeze! And your hues grow vibrantly throughout all my days! Oh, I love your being, For it makes me all the more human.
