Lyrics
"Blaze of Glory"
7/10/14 Capers Buxton Simmons (ASCAP)
CHORUS
Stars don't fade when they die out,
They go supernova and burn the whole system down,
Going out in a blaze of glory.
So let's start the night with the end of days:
Dance for our lives upon our graves,
Go down in flames and a blaze of glory.
VERSE I
We are young enough to die
But this is real enough to fight for, if we try.
Someone said the sun turns red
And eats the sky at the end of time.
It feels like tonight, feels like tonight.
~ CHORUS ~
VERSE II
We are stars that fell apart
And turned to dust and learned to trust their broken hearts.
So let's be gone for Armageddon,
Eat the sky and kiss the sun
'Til Kingdom come, 'til Kingdom come
~ CHORUS ~
BRIDGE
The starlet falls,
Make a wish on the tail.
The curtain calls,
We watch them fail.
The crystal balls
Never saw it coming.
The starlet falls,
And we come running.
~ CHORUS ~
FADEOUT
Let me see you shine
For one last time
Radiation eyes in a blaze of glory
'Cause when stars die
They still shine
Leaving nothing behind but a blaze of glory
