Verse 1

He had a car
He traveled far
To the place
He’s always dreamed of
He fell in love with the stars
And he decided it was where he belong
He sought his place
And took a space where the many think they’re called
But the chosen are few
He fell in love, with nebula
And he knew just what to do
Yes, he knew just what to do

Chorus

Black Star
Black Star
Keep shining
You better tell them who you are
Black star
Go far
Up above the clouds
There you are

Verse 2

He was to be
All he could be
For the world to see
And to take him in
He was led astray
He lost his way
And he stood dying in the wind
He was dying in the wind

Bridge

Hold on when hope is gone
And nothing really matters
(and nothing really matters)
oh please, let your shine be
the thing that brings you out
and fill you within
so seek your place
and make a space
where the many think they’re called
but the chosen are few
go fall in love
with nebula
and rise and shine away

Chorus (repeat)

Adlibs

Pearl, was a runaway
Spending most of her life
Running away
To leantos between two
Places
Pearl was a pretty girl,
Hiding a smile
She never showed the world
That was Pearl

Prechorus

And if tI never said
The world does not define you
If I never said, It’s your world
And if I never said,
The world does not define you
If I never said…

Chorus

You are loved
You are loved

Verse 2

Pearl, was a troubled girl
Giving pieces of herself
To be like other girls,
That was Pearl
She was weak from her mother’s blows
And a daddy she knew, she didn’t know
Ha, he, ho , oh, oh
Prechorus

Chorus

Verse 3

Pearl, the runaway
Died on yesterday
Hey
And if they never said
They cared, they sent roses
On that day
Hey, Yay, yay

Prechorus

Repeat

Ha, ah, ho, ha, ah, ho, ha, ah, ho
Ha, ah, ho

Chorus

You are ha, ah, ho
You are loved
You are ha, ah, ho
You are loved

You are
Ba, da, da, da
You are
Ba da, da, da
You are
Ba da, da, da

Nothing means nothing
And nothings what I have with you, with you
Bring your fire, pour your rain
Oh please don’t let me refrain
With bitter and cold
From the cause of you
For we do these things
Sometimes, we do
And if bitter be cold
As morning dew
Thank you for morning days anew
Yes my weather for you changes
This bitter, bitter, blue

(Sax solo)

Adlibs

And if bitter be cold as morning dew
Thank you for morning days anew
This weather for you changes
This bitter, bitter, blue
Bitter, bitter blue

Where you going? Where you been?
Are we still friends
You need to call and see about me
Call and see, see about me
I don’t mid not talkin’ to you
Every once in a while
But baby call and see about me
Call and see, call and see

Chorus

Why don’t you call, call me like you use to
Do you still care, care about me
(repeat)

Verse 2

I get too embarrassed to let you know how much I really care
Bur when I don’t hear a word from you,
It feels like you’re not there
I call you time and again, so
Are we still friends?
If so,
Baby, call and see about me
Call and see, see about me
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Chorus

Repeat

Vamp

In the mean time and in between time,
I need to show you what you me to me
Give me something to hold on to
Give me something to believe

Repeat

Chorus

Do Mat Mare Ray
She don’t wanna do right no mo
She got dirt from the bottom of shoes on her forehead
So, I don’t know why else but
She don’t wanna do right no mo
I say “Mare Ray,”
“Why you cussin’ in the mirror and walking real hard on the floor fo’, huh?”
Act like the air ain’t lettin’ her breathe in
She says it doesn’t
And it hurts
Suspended animation
Can’t let go
And there it goes again
Give me back my words
I ain’t got no mo words
She ain’t got no mo words for ya
(We’ll sing a lullabye)
Just sing me a lullabye
So I can rest the weary
I have a novel in the knot of my right shoulder
Massage it out and I will sing you a song
There are serpents doing a belly dance
And hissing split-tongued up at the birds in the sky
Swallow and feed on bird eggs
Jealous of flight
It’s the life they get fat from
They feed on the seed
Sis?
(hm)
I took a look at myself
(um, hm)
the daily rituals
(um, mm)
and it seems I found it to be all quite episodic
suspended animation
can’t let go
and there she goes

(wailing)
Do Mat Mare Ray
You forgot where you put your keys again
Cold skin
See, all her best friends
Stole her fire

Baby, don’t you cry
Now that I’m gone
No matter what the World may hold
I come whole
I just slipped in the hole of another soul
broken pieces
Now I’m just in the next room resting
I have watched you
Now keep the calm
This body remembering
Morning won’t be that long

(moaning)

Do Mat Mare Ray
She don’t wanna do right no mo
She got dirt from the bottom of shoes on her forehead,
So, I don’t know why else but,
she don’t wanna do right no mo
She
Just don’t wanna do right no mo
(I don’t know why else, I don’t know why else)

Do Mat Mare Ray
Don’t want to do right no mo
Stole her fire, stole her fire
(adlibs)

Don’t daydream too long
Make all your dreams come true
Things happen when you move on
The things you wanna do

Prechorus

Daydreamer it’s in your eyes
You’ve got that fire in you
Make your dreams come alive
You’ve got to do it for you

Chorus

Keep aiming high, high,
High, high, high,
Reach for the sky, high
High, high, high

Verse 2

Don’t live a lie ‘cos the fear inside
Second guesses you
What can you loose if you choose to do
What’s right for you

Prechorus

Daydreamer, it’s in your eyes
You’ve got that fire in you
Make your dreams come alive
You’ve got to do it for you

Chorus

Repeat

Back to Verse 1

Prechorus

Chorus
(repeat 3xs)

Be high, high, high

(3xs)
Reach for the sky, sky, sky

Be high, high, high
Be high, high, high, high

Chorus
