[Verse 1]
Gonna rise up, mother
Gonna take back what is mine
Gonna hold it tight in my hand
Till the end of time
And will you kiss my cheek
As I toe the line?
And, yes, forgive this boyish gall
Running through another wall

[Pre-Chorus]
I stand, I fall, I want it all

[Chorus]
I'm a shooting star across the night
I'm a flaming wreck that's burning bright
And I don't care how you feel
And that should seal the deal
In a mother's prayer, it's all, all right
All right

[Verse 2]
Let the game begin
Let the chips fall where they may
Let the devil grin, no peace for me
Let the angels fly away
And can we sit
My arms around the fray?
And please forgive my soulless hate
But not before it's all too late
[Pre-Chorus]
I stand, I fall, I want it all
I take, I break, I'm your mistake

[Chorus]
I'm a shooting star across the night
I'm a flaming wreck that's burning bright
And I don't care how you feel
And that should seal the deal
In a mother's prayer, it's all, all right
All right

[Bridge]
C'mon, c'mon, I'm begging forgiveness
C'mon, c'mon, I enter the fray
C'mon, c'mon, bestow the forgiveness
C'mon, c'mon, a brand-new day
C'mon, c'mon, a brand-new day
C'mon, c'mon, a brand-new day

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
I'm a shooting star across the night
I'm a flaming wreck that's burning bright
And I don't care how you feel
And that should seal the deal
In a mother's prayer, it's all, all right
All right
All right
[Outro]
I'm a shooting star across the night
