Skulls and Stars Songtext

von Crazy Town

[Chorus]
I was a skull in the ground
Now I'm a star in the sky
I went from crawling around
To being able to fly
Saw no future for me until I opened my eyes
I was a skull in the ground
Now I'm a star in the sky

I tried love, having hope and takin' chances
And all I got were broken dreams
And failed romances
Suffered to a life of skin covered in scratches
Looking for the light but
I could never find the passage
Tension, stress, pain yeah you best believe it
Nose bleeding from my false way to believe it
Enough confusion to make serenity sick
All my fake friends became my enemies quick
Every day I found another way to make excuses
Took the ropes
I was supposed to climb and made nooses
Being stupid always giving in to the myth
That life wasn't even worth living like this
A grown man trapped inside a young man's skin
With resentments buried very deep within
On a mission to end up either dead or in jail
No wonder everybody always said
That I would fail

Chorus x2

I found myself locked in a cell
And I was just another number
The thin ice was cracking
And I was sinking under ...
Often never felt but when I felt often was sorrow
Worry about today dread
What would happen by tomorrow
Who knows the answers
Well nobody knows for certain
The evil things I did
When I chose to close the curtain
Perhaps I should relapse quit
Relapse quit
Or sit back and relax with a sack of good shit
Now I find myself in a candle lit depression
Using sex like drugs
Just to handle my aggression

Chorus x2

I had a little, had a lot, had it all
And then I lost it
Stars are in my eyes
And skeletons are in my closet
Now when I open my eyes and I rise from the dead
Take control of my soul
'cause the lies are in my head
The right way is the left way
And the left way is wrong
So I'm left with the right way
And the right way is long
So for once in my life
I truly feel like I belong
So I'll appreciate today
And every day until I'm gone

Chorus x2

I was a skull in the ground
Now I'm a star in the sky...
