Was waiting for the stars to fall and burn me off the planet The house it shakes and creaks with fear The fear this time we've really had it But hey I don't care If death is hanging in the air Cause I knew I had it coming When they handed out good luck I wasn't there But for all those dreamy hours the stars still seem just as far And no matter how you wish they stay exactly where they are So I stay in my tomb In the gathering gloom But I won't be gone forever I'll be waiting for my soul to be exhumed Oh hey I don't mind I guess I'm still the bitter kind Cause I'm through with this possession And I'll leave the burned out tenements behind
