Lyrics

I saw an angel through a doorway
She told me of her name
And though the syllables were hard to swallow
I spoke it just the same
In a dream, in a dream
 
I saw a cannon in a courtyard
Sat smoking like a liar
Though it held onto rain water
It’s purpose was for fire
In a war, in a war
 
Bright stars, fade away
Bright stars, fade away
 
I lost a lover from a distance
Painfully bloodless
Now we speak as if strangers
And fault ourselves for darkness
In the night, in the night
 
Bright stars, fade away
Bright stars, fade away
