no matter how great or small
howlin' like the midnight
howlin' like the midnight sun
and this ain't no pale reflection
and your heart ain't yours to control
no matter how tight the reigns
love will find it's own direction
and many a time to cry in vain
but now the time to celebrate
the glory of this imperfection
same thing that's scrawled across the stars
is written under our skin
if it don't work out i get superstitious
so i'm gathering all the remnants of beauty
from this wilderness in spin
and now i'm gonna light my own flame
'cause i'm charged with the radiance of the dawn
that's been so long breaking
there ain't nowhere i won't write your name
there's a time to search for understanding
sometime you just gotta sing
baby there's no need to get precious
when you know that everything must change
turn this love into a cage
same thing that's scrawled across the stars
is written under our skin
