Before Your Star

lyrics

I see old pictures of you and I see lonely and broken
A little deeper still and I see hope inside your eyes
But the devil you knew always found out another weakness
The devil you knew sounds an awful lot like mine

And I never even knew you man, I just heard about you
From all the memories of the people you left behind
They said you were a man of passion and honest emotion
Like a beacon or a magnet for the pain in others lives
And that you faded out before your sun could rise

And all your friends are out there now and I know some of them conquered the demon
But I think they probably know how close they were to the same demise
And all the honour they bestow upon your soul! Man, you got peace now...
You're still the greatest frontman and I wish that you were still alive.

And I never even knew you man, I just heard about you
From all the memories of the people you left behind
They said you were a man of passion and honest emotion
Like a beacon or a magnet for the pain in others lives
And that you faded out before your star
Ya you faded out before your star
Oh you faded out...
before your star could shine
