Song Lyrics

As a child, I knew
That the stars could only get brighter
And we would get closer
Get closer
Oh

As a child, I knew
That the stars could only get brighter
That we would get closer
Get closer
Leaving this darkness
Behind

Oh

Now that I'm older
The stars should lie upon my face
When I find myself alone
Find myself alone
Oh

Now that I'm older
The stars should lie upon my face
And when I find myself alone
I feel like I
I am blind

Feel it
Feel it
Feel it
Feel it
Like I am blind
I am blind

I wish the stars could shine now
For they are closer
They are near
But they will not present my present
They will not present my present

I wish the light could shine now
For it is closer
It is near
But it will not present my present
It makes my past and future painfully clear

To hear you now
To see you now
I can look outside myself
And I must examine my breath and look inside
Oh

To see you now
To hear you now
I can look outside myself
And I must examine my breath and look inside
Because I feel blind
Because I feel blind

I feel it
I feel it
I feel it
Like I
Like I'm blind
Oh
The movie will
Mmmm, and feel it
Oh, I feel it
Feel it

[Repeated in background]
Oh, I feel it
