Beautiful night's sky, a splattered canvas of light peeking at me through pinholes, watching me.. mocking me.. wondering why I am alone. It is too fair a picture to look at alone. I try to stare at my feet. All love's efforts, dreams, and hopes, put through the meat grinder and wrapped with a bow. Why do the stars taunt me with their judgmental eyes? What do they know anyway? Under these starry skies, I used to hold her so close it hurt. I kissed her told her everything would be ok. Now I can't bear to look at them.   I try to stare at my feet. Beautiful, starry sky... Another casualty of war.

Beautiful, Starry Sky
Beautiful night's sky, a splattered canvas of light peeking at me through pinholes, watching me.. mocking me.. wondering why I am alone. It is too fair a picture to look at alone. I try to stare at my feet. All love's efforts, dreams, and hopes, put through the meat grinder and wrapped with a bow. Why do the stars taunt me with their judgmental eyes? What do they know anyway? Under these starry skies, I used to hold her so close it hurt. I kissed her told her everything would be ok. Now I can't bear to look at them.   I try to stare at my feet. Beautiful, starry sky... Another casualty of war.
I haven't been on in a long time.  Let's see what's inside my mind tonight...
