lyrics
ALL THE STARS BURN OUT
I carry this heart in front of me
Like a butcher a bucket of bones
I can’t find no rest
Cleansed my treasure chest
Of even fool’s gold and rhinestones
The curtains are drawn
Still darkest after dawn
Her battered atlas reminds me
Of how she sank like a stone
Strung-out and alone
To the bottom of the sea
The sun refuses to shine
The moon hangs lifeless on the line
And there is no silver lining
Behind this dark cloud
All the stars burn out
My eyes are sore
I kneel on the floor
And I have my head in a hole
The hollow sound of the underground
Rings like a bell
In this hell
I call my soul
Trying to luck through
A girl barely twenty-two
Always raising the stakes
The whole world yet to see
Hardly made it to the pharmacy
To buy cough syrup
To ease the shakes
The sun refuses to shine
The moon hangs lifeless on the line
And there is no silver lining
Behind this dark cloud
All the stars burn out
Tonight
Oh, maiden fair
With blood in your hair
Dead in your Guns N’ Roses shirt
You passed like a comet
Face smeared with vomit
Lying there now one with the dirt
This is too hard to handle
So I light a candle
Just like those who believe
I reach for the balloon
I will sail the moon
One last time I roll up my sleeve
The sun refuses to shine
The moon hangs lifeless on the line
And there is no silver lining
Behind this dark cloud
All the stars burn out
I wish the sky were a hole
That would swallow us all
The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
