Lyrics Verse 1: 'Don't come around, Captain Ballerina' 'Kick Me' says the note upon his back He sits by his lonesome No one to protect him Teardrops stain his worn out paperback Verse 2: He sleeps in the attic Oils on his fingers Paintings line the walls that no one sees And pages of his stories gather dust in corners Boy's got the dreamer's disease He knows that he is different Never gonna fit in Chorus: Stargazer, slow down Looking up, but always from the ground Stargazer, arise Standing brings you closer to the sky Verse 3: Papa's not around Mama's never seen the ocean The ceiling leaps at the mention of rain He's so bloody brilliant If anyone'd care to notice But there's too much noise Too many bills to pay Worn from all the waiting Silently he's fading Bridge: Fear can lead to violence And years, a life of bitter silence Black and white and brown and grey picket fences chipping paint He's color, he's the light He's voices, he's a life to save Stargazer slow down Lyin' where they left him on the ground Stargazer arise Standing brings you closer to the sky
Lyrics
Verse 1:
'Don't come around, Captain Ballerina'
'Kick Me' says the note upon his back
He sits by his lonesome
No one to protect him
Teardrops stain his worn out paperback
Verse 2:
He sleeps in the attic
Oils on his fingers
Paintings line the walls that no one sees
And pages of his stories gather dust in corners
Boy's got the dreamer's disease
He knows that he is different
Never gonna fit in
Chorus:
Stargazer, slow down
Looking up, but always from the ground
Stargazer, arise
Standing brings you closer to the sky
Verse 3:
Papa's not around
Mama's never seen the ocean
The ceiling leaps at the mention of rain
He's so bloody brilliant
If anyone'd care to notice
But there's too much noise
Too many bills to pay
Worn from all the waiting
Silently he's fading
Bridge:
Fear can lead to violence
And years, a life of bitter silence
Black and white and brown and grey picket fences chipping paint
He's color, he's the light
He's voices, he's a life to save
Stargazer slow down
Lyin' where they left him on the ground
Stargazer arise
Standing brings you closer to the sky
Amo Fine Frenzy
