lyrics

I used to imagine
the stars were friends of mine
it's not fair, they'd say
to never see the light

I'd be inclined to agree
I could see the sun, but it couldn't see me
It lost a bet to the dark
on who could own my heart

The great boar bore the burden too
Orion and I are the hunter and hunted
Not to mention, terribly haunted
I kept waiting for my chest to cave in

I don't want to say my dreams came true
Never had a dream as nice as this
Human contact, I surrender
They can't promise, but I surrender

The shadows that live in all of us
appear just to laugh at me
But I'm laughing, too, for the first time
I have friends - friends in real life!

And sometimes
when I close my eyes
and will it so
I can feel it inside of me

It's very faint,
but it's still beating.
