Dark Star (Tarja Lead Vocals Version)
Burning out in the distance, you're falling
Starting to fade
Light is condemned to be tied down by gravity
Close to the end
Do you still remember
Before the weight that pulled you under
Dared you to rise?
Where are you now?
Are you proud of the life you wasted?
Wearing the crown of illusion you created
You'll never know what it feels like to shine
You're the master in your own mind
But a slave to all, you're a dark star
Empty is never enough
You keep clawing for what you can't reach
Smothering space filled without any grace
And I can't breathe
Nothing lasts forever
Even the stars will lose their luster
Returning to dust
Where are you now?
Are you proud of the life you wasted?
Wearing the crown of illusion you created
You'll never know what it feels like to shine
You're the master in your own mind
But a slave to all, you are a dark star
Dark (dark) star (star)
Dark (dark) star (star)
Dark (dark) star (star)
Dark (dark) star (star)
Where are you now?
Are you proud of the life you wasted?
Wearing the crown of illusion you created
You'll never know what it feels like to shine
You're the master in your own mind
But a slave to all, you are a dark star
Where are you now?
Are you proud of the life you wasted?
Wearing the crown of illusion you created
You'll never know what it feels like to shine
You're the master in your own mind
But a slave to all, you are a dark star
Dark, dark
Dark, dark
Dark, dark
Dark, dark
Dark, dark
Dark, dark
Dark star
Starting to fade
Light is condemned to be tied down by gravity
Close to the end
Do you still remember
Before the weight that pulled you under
Dared you to rise?
Where are you now?
Are you proud of the life you wasted?
Wearing the crown of illusion you created
You'll never know what it feels like to shine
You're the master in your own mind
But a slave to all, you're a dark star
Empty is never enough
You keep clawing for what you can't reach
Smothering space filled without any grace
And I can't breathe
Nothing lasts forever
Even the stars will lose their luster
Returning to dust
Where are you now?
Are you proud of the life you wasted?
Wearing the crown of illusion you created
You'll never know what it feels like to shine
You're the master in your own mind
But a slave to all, you are a dark star
Dark (dark) star (star)
Dark (dark) star (star)
Dark (dark) star (star)
Dark (dark) star (star)
Where are you now?
Are you proud of the life you wasted?
Wearing the crown of illusion you created
You'll never know what it feels like to shine
You're the master in your own mind
But a slave to all, you are a dark star
Where are you now?
Are you proud of the life you wasted?
Wearing the crown of illusion you created
You'll never know what it feels like to shine
You're the master in your own mind
But a slave to all, you are a dark star
Dark, dark
Dark, dark
Dark, dark
Dark, dark
Dark, dark
Dark, dark
Dark star
