lyrics

I was coming down
You bring to my knees
The wind blows peaceful slumber
Coerce me back to sleep

I lie awake
For the night can get so dark
Never gain for glory
But I can play the part

Who are you? And who am I?
Just another outlier
Looking in and looking out
That’s why I live amongst the stars

I was told a story
Of a place that I can go
Where no one will find me
I’m the only one that knows

Deep in the forest
Lies a fountain dark and well
Where the earth can flow through me
And cast me in its spell

Where are you? And where am I?
Just another outlier
Looking in and looking out
That’s why I live amongst the stars

Amongst the stars
They call me their own
Amongst the stars
