We were alone on our own, in the dark between the stars From the shadows to the pyre, amidst the chaos, from the stars Love, life liberty, Hate, death captivity Like a stain of starless darkness, across the canvas of space
(Chorus) STAR BY STAR Corrupting all of humanity So much alike are we When I see you I see me
Galaxies glitter in the black night sky, Towards progress, towards death From the stars we have come, to the stars we will return
The violence of passion - The passion of violence The perverse impulses - The savage egoism The wicked presence - The wicked essence The thing that unites us - The thing that divides us
