Star Mile

[Verse 1]:

Old doubt and a girl by your side

She's feeding your pride

As you go for a ride

Down the star mile

Worlds rise as she lets you come in

A duo begins

To the Hollywood din

Of the lonely

[Chorus]:

And all the gold dust in her eyes

Won't reform into rain

You had and lost

The one thing

You kept in a safe place

Remember the face

The girl who had made you her own

And how you left her alone

[Verse 2]:

All's well at the base of the hill

You might need to fill

A prescription to kill

Off the sirens

Look down from your tower on high

And take in the night

Look her right in the eye

She'll listen

[Chorus]:

And all the gold dust in her eyes

Won't reform into rain

You had and lost

The one thing

You kept in a safe place

Remember the face

The girl who had made you her own

And how you left her alone

[Bridge]:

Life comes to those that'll choose

The regular news

Over playing the blues

With the light on

And if you burn the road that'll lead you

Back to her in time

I'll watch you turn to stone

Can't find the sublime

She's moving on

Without you

The tide breaks

You watch the stars fade

They gather you back to their home

I guess it's better than being alone
