By Starlight Lyrics

You're hiding out in back yards
You feasted on the flowers
Your army sergeant father's father
Spent twenty years in prison

And way back
In their time
The frontier
Was open

They stayed near
Their fires
And wilted
By starlight

You're missing from the nightclubs
The sparkle of fake diamonds
Sweeping up the sidewalks, slowly
There's nothing left to hold down

And way back
In their time
The frontier
Was open

They stayed near
Their fires
And wilted
By starlight

By starlight,

It's blasting off the planet
A million ships an hour
It's looking into something different

It's using all the power
A billion bucks a second
It's looking into something new

By starlight...!

You're hiding out in back yards
You feasted on the flowers
