Life On a Distant Star

There’s fire on the mountain
But it’s just another sun
The Earth is next
To nothing on the horizon
Here the nights are crimson
The color of my heart
Closer to oblivion
Light years apart
I’m much too far
From where you are
Life on a distant star
Time is always leaving
Everyone behind
Distance can shrink a mountain
Though you couldn’t climb
I’m much too far
From where you are
Life on a distant star
Do you care if I’m lonely?
I wonder if you care
You can’t run from isolation
Even though you may be scared
I’m much too far
From where you are
Life on a distant star
