'Neath The Stars

Lyrics:

• why do they call her wren?
• she changed her name to fit the way that she was feeling then
• then wren, she spilled some wine,
• forgot the names they used to call her in those other times


• truly, underneath the stars there are a million ways to be the way you are
• all of them dying
• underneath the rays there’ll be a million ways to live the days ahead
• why are we crying?


• if i knock . . what will i say?
• i know you’ve been in your home & i’ve been far away
• when i knock . . who will i be?
• i know you’re a different you & i’ve forgotten me


• truly, underneath the stars there are a million ways to be the way you are
• all of them dying
• underneath their rays there’ll be a million ways to live the days ahead
• why are we crying?


• why not change our names? some things we won’t recognize
• some will remain the same
• some people roll a stone
• find out they were never really even in their home


• underneath the stars there are a million ways to be the way you are
• all of them dying
• underneath the rays there’ll be a million ways to live the days ahead
• why are we crying?


• there were words
• on my skin
• you touched them & they woke again
• now they’re on the wind
