I was waiting for the stars to fall and burn me off the planet

The house it shakes and creaks with fear

The fear this time we’ve really had it

But hey I don’t care

If death is hanging in the air

Cause I knew I had it coming

When they handed out good luck I wasn’t there

But for all those dreamy hours the stars still seem just as far

And no matter how you wish they stay exactly where they are

So I stay in my tomb

In the gathering gloom

But I won’t be gone forever

I’ll be waiting for my soul to be exhumed

Oh hey I don’t mind

I guess I’m still the bitter kind

Cause I’m through with this possession

And I’ll leave the burned out tenements behind
