Stars - The Five Ghosts lyrics

When I was a little girl the
World was small to me
All the light in my life
Filtered softly through the trees
The shadows in the photographs
Five ghosts who followed me
I was only truly frightened once
They called my name and said they wanted me

Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die
Oh oh oh, for one sweet second
Without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye
Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die
Oh oh oh, for one sweet second
Without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye

When I grew in age and fame
And traveled through the world
All the rivers of the city
Like flags of blue unfurled
Me pressed against the railing
Me taken to a room
Me breaking in the morning
Dark with a sense of coming doom

Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die
Oh oh oh, for one sweet second
Without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye
Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die
Oh oh oh, for one sweet second
Without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye
The eye the eye, the eye, the eye, the
Eye, the eye, the eye, the eye

Now I have grown old and all
My grace and beauty gone
Five ghosts surround my garden
I don't tell them to move on
I walk deeper into shade now
That dappled light again
I see you standing at the gate
My one and only friend

Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die
Oh oh oh, for one sweet second
Without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye
Oh, what a beautiful day to try to die
Oh oh oh, for one sweet second
Without the eye, the eye, the eye, the eye
The eye
