Lyrics
Zodiac in Twilight
The wind carries the sound of a distant train
Oh, twilight
The night slowly sets my heart free
The stars gently begin to awaken
Playing out the shapes of constellations
Just for this moment, won’t you softly tell me
Why do you pin sadness onto the velvet night sky?
The pale colors of space drift across the sky
Oh, twilight
The night stretches shadows over my shadow
The stars tenderly begin to sing
Won’t you teach me that melody too
From this moment, I will sing out alone
Why does the night sky echo back with lonely sorrow?
Zodiac in Twilight
Zodiac in Twilight
Why do you pin sadness onto the velvet night sky?
Night Owl
The sleepless owl carries a darkness in his heart
deeper than the shadows of this forest.
Tonight again, the branch across from him lies empty,
as he waits for her, endlessly.
The pale moon shines on him.
his sad profile, oh, rising out of the dark.
But, no worries. He’s all right.
He’s not sad at all because he’s used to the darkness.
He was born a night owl, he just doesn’t know.
The long lived owl carries darkness in his heart.
Darkness deeper than the shadows of this forest.
Tonight again, the branch across from him lies empty,
as he waits for her, endlessly.
The cold wind tempts him into the dark,
but he firmly closes wings and stands his ground.
But, no worries. He’s all right.
He’s not sad at all because he’s used to the darkness.
He was born a night owl, he just doesn’t know.
The darkness in the heart of a night owl,
is darker than the shadows of the forest.
Tonight again, the branch across from him lies empty,
as he waits for her to come and rest beside him.
The moon is lost behind the clouds,
once again, he fades into the night.
The sleepless owl carries a darkness in his heart
deeper than the shadows of this forest.
Tonight again, the branch across from him lies empty,
as he waits for her, endlessly.
The long lived owl carries darkness in his heart.
Darkness deeper than the shadows of this forest.
Tonight again, the branch across from him lies empty,
as he waits for her, endlessly.

Story
A wounded boy by the roadside
A girl passing by stopped to help
Only later did she find out
He was the prince of, Oh,,
prince of
A great kingdom
Ah Ah
That’s how the story begins
Soon someone should come
to take her away
But you know
we all understand
Things like that never happen
It’s only a fairy tale
Ah Ah
That’s how the story ends
That’s how the story ends
That’s how the story ends
It’s just a fairy tale
That’s how the story ends
‘cause things like that
could never be true
Just a fairy tale inside a dream
Ah Ah
That’s how the story cries
But still
you carry your dream with you
And I know
that’s how you’ll live your life
You, wounded
Remembering him
And that wounded boy someday
may remember you
Starry Drive ~ A Tribute to Syd Barrett ~
I can lie and act like I’m fine
I’m a coward, and you’re the king
I slip away to the backyard
Smoking like I’ve got something to hide
I stare up at the empty sky
Watching the clouds change shape
Shifting daydreams
Calling daydreams
I slowly melt away
Ah, I’m sorry, again
Maybe I wasn’t really listening to you
When things get tough I run away
Though there’s no real reason why
The music that I heard that day
Somehow messed me up inside
Losing time daydreams
Letting go daydreams
I run away
Even if I force a smile
Even if I force myself to love
Ah, something inside me
Is breaking apart
Just after the break of dawn
he whistles a tune
Hey, listen
Barrett — this is my song
Ah!
He sings right beside me
Cutting through the dark
A drive under the stars
Spinning my mind
Time slips daydreams
Melting daydreams
I dance alone
Daydream, are you there?
Daydream, I’m right here
A starry drive
Driving me insane
Daydream, let the echo ring in the dark
Daydream, we are falling down
A starry drive
Driving me insane
bitter
I hate that smell
it reminds me of you
It takes me back again to that day
Summer burning
I grow dizzy and fall to my knees
You turn and look back
The last thing I see — your mocking smile
Bitter memories
drifting in the wind
I hate that word
because, Oh, it reminds me of you
And once again
I reach for Oh! God! that book
Winter pages
My fingers dry, I can’t turn them, can’t turn them
Is it winter turning me away?
Or is it you turning me away?
Bitter memories
buried under the snow
It’s a color I try to avoid
because it reminds me of you
You always wore
Oh God!
a shirt this color
The seasons come and go
once again in summer
I fall to my knees
Even now I can’t erase
The mocking smile you gave me
Go ahead!
Laugh at someone like me!
This miserable me
Go on and laugh!
Bitterness’s killing me.
Bitterness’s breaking me.
Bitterness still stings.
Bitterness cuts deep.
The Stronger Me
Life, from the start
has always just been killing time
Pretending not to see
Laughing louder than we mean
Just getting through today
What is this universe for?
Is this universe just killing time too?
If we don’t know, let it stay unknown
Tomorrow comes again
The stronger me
even through days like these
will praise them and keep living
If it’s a dream beyond my sight,
let it remain unseen
And tomorrow comes again
The stronger me praises the days
The weaker me counts the days
The stars grow old and fade away
And I will fade away too
The stronger me
even through days like these
will praise them and keep living
Here in a corner of the universe
Just getting through the day
Black Star
When you solved the formula
opens up a world
overflowing with light
Stop the flow of time for me
I wanna get closer to forever
Every time I softly touch it with my fingers
The particles slip away and dance
A flashback swimming upstream through time
I meet the younger me from that day
Erase it with the formula you wrote
This darkness swallowing the light
Melting fate into chance, Black Star
Someone’s watching me
Turning endings to beginnings, Black Star
Someone’s waiting for me
Shining darker than the dark, Black Star
Breaking your formula, Black Star
Love and Hate
You’re the fire,
I’m a mayfly
You’re so strong,
I’m barely holding on
About to burn away
I chase after you
I look up to you
But I always lose you
And I’m sick of it
Light and shadow or
Love and hate
Two sides of me
Honestly, I will tell you
You know, it’s messed up
I hate you
I am about to lose my mind
Light and shadow or
Love and hate
I’m caught in between
Just following you
Just hating you
Light and shadow or
Love and hate
I can’t control it
It’s tearing me in two, Oh!
Something with horns
Thrashing, screaming, crying out
It tears across the night sky higher
Love and Hate
Love and Hate
Love and Hate
Two Sides of the Same Coin
Memory finds me
and it takes me by surprise
The things I left behind that summer
The things I buried, the things I can’t talk about
Even now…
Lying in the depths of the night,
It waits patiently
Waiting to take its revenge on me
As if he can see through me
Ah, he smiles
I run, but he follows me
Is he trying to take me all the way back
To that summer I left behind?
Lying in the depths of the dark,
It waits patiently
Waiting to take its revenge on me
I keep returning to the same place
Two sides of the same coin — time and space
I keep returning to the same summer
Space-Time or two sides of the same coin.
I keep returning to the same place
Two sides of the same coin — time and space
I keep returning to the same summer
Space-Time is two sides of the same coin… Ah
