lyrics

The life of a star
Ends in a black hole
Once a red giant
That shone over the land Glowing and bursting Ambition had no end
It got really cocky
I understand
The life of a star
Close as it is far
Straight from the big bang
It’s natural habit
Planets clinging
To ring-shaped orbits
It got really cocky
Before it collapsed
The life of a star
Burns with impossible power But once in Walgreens
I read all the magazines Cover to cover
I didn’t discover
Anything I didn’t already know Then I got bored
