Falling Star from Fallen Star by The Pesky Varmints

unforgiving rumors chasing yesterday
demanding retribution for things I didn't say
prisoners of the shadows forever keeping score
yanking on my shackles crying give us just one more

so roll me down the hill like a stone
oh falling star let me follow you home

fashion pretty face on the TV screen
flashing toothy smiles and selling facial cream
buy one get one free there’s a special sale today
and the more that you spend the more you're gonna save

random confrontation clutching at the past
recycled memories disappearing fast
trying to drag me back to those ancient glory days
of youthful transgressions wrestling in the haze

paths in all directions weaving left and right
take the one down the middle towards the flickering light
of 13 santos candles with flames of cleansing fire
burning on an altar in a cage of golden wire

the shiny gate swings open with a push and pull
of collective dreams whispered by the golden rule
impatient for that moment when every wish comes true
while time passes by never leaving a clue
