Starchild Lyrics

Ghost Quartet Starchild

[GELSEY]
Side 1, Track 3. “Starchild.”

[BRITTAIN (Starchild)]
WHEN I WAS A BABY
I WAS BLESSED BY A STRANGER
IN WATERS I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND
AND NOW I'M INFECTED
WITH DISBELIEF AND BLASPHEMY
I'LL NEVER HAVE A HOLY LAND

I AM GHOST
IN THE EYES OF MY GOD

BUT I WILL TRANSCEND
AND VOMIT THIS LOSER OUT OF ME
I WILL BECOME THE NEXT BIG THING

[ALL]
I WILL LIGHT MYSELF ON FIRE

[BRITTAIN]
IT'S TIME TO GET OUT OF BED
AND BE THE STARCHILD I CAN BE

A BILLION LIGHT YEARS AWAY
SOMEONE'S THINKING THE SAME THING
BUT HE'S ALREADY TURNED TO DUST
AND THE STARLIGHT I SEE
IS A BILLION LIGHT YEARS OLD
A GHOST JUST LIKE THE REST OF US

NOTHING I SEE
IS THERE ANYMORE

[ALL]
BUT I WILL TRANSCEND
AND VOMIT THIS LOSER OUT OF ME
I WILL BECOME THE NEXT BIG THING
I WILL LIGHT MYSELF ON FIRE

[BRITTAIN]
IT'S TIME TO GET OUT OF BED
AND BE THE STARCHILD I CAN BE
