[Verse 1]
We used to think our words were gold
That our binded hearts could withstand cold
We were catching diamonds in the rain
Letting precious water through the drain

[Chorus]
Stars were dancing in their light
A past that we could never right
Oh, they were dancing way up high

[Verse 2]
We built these walls so we could find
Who could prove themselves through the waves of time
But trying to repent before you sin
Is like giving up before you begin

[Chorus]
Stars were dancing in their light
A past that we could never right
Oh, they were dancing way up high
Stars were dancing in their light
A future we will never write
Dirt on our feet was bone dry, it was bone dry

[Bridge]
Thought another goal is all we needed
Taking second chances 'til we bleed
And when all the love had been depleted
We had but no choice to concede

[Chorus]
As the stars were dancing in their light
A past that we could never right
Oh, they were dancing way up high
Stars were dancing in their light
A future we will never write
Dirt on our feet was bone dry, it was bone dry
