paroles de chanson STAR SUITE II. Fading Star - MONDO GROSSO

First night and feeling giddy
A stranger in the city
As she smiles like a child
To the familiar sky
Starlight starbright
I wish upon a star tonight
I wish i may
I wish i might
See you somewhere out tonight!
Where did they go?
The stars shudder
Swallowed by deafening neon lights
Drowning
Impounding her senses
As she tenses
Feeling defenses
Her body has never known
She thought she was grown
Ready to deal
Steady to feel
The new ground
But instead
Her head
Spins around
With people
Walking big
And talking loud
Saying nothing
Going nowhere fast
This was not what she asked for
Confused by moving lips
And legs and
Lights that lined her mind
She escapes
And hopes to wake
To a better tomorrow
She can't see
Eyes open
Neighbors drunken
Empty slogans
Spirits fallen
Sadness woven
Innocence stolen
Hearts broken
Hope forsaken
Lives tokens
Dreams slighted
Rules once golden
Now forgotten
And
She can't see
Into the mirror without a fear
Over her changing reflection
The souls contradiction
With dimming light behind her eyes
As dark as the midnight skies
But
She sees
Dem city girls
With ironed curls
Whose scope and views is narrow
Emotions and perspectives so shallow
Only an echo of conscience
In a space that's hollow
That's ignored
As they pour
Over catalogs
And like rouges
Roam from shop to shop
Til they drop
And cops listen to hip hop
Trying to put their finger on their blunders
And the pulse of the street
To scare the behest of the beat
To get the deep guttural sounds of hunger and anger
Who really understand
The language of the rhythm
But instead they keep their hand on the trigger of cynicism
She sees to much
And not enough
Of what she wants to see.
