"Your Star" - Lyrics by Amy Lee; [Band] Evanescence



Amy Lee of the band "Evanescence" has earned my respect in many ways, namely her demonstration of her craft in the music industry as a true artist. Amy Lee writes most of the music for the band. Her lyrics have been poignant at many different stages in my adult life. Following are the lyrics to "Your Star." When I feel I may be lost in life with my star unseen or that of someone I love, I find myself turning to these lyrics.



"Your Star"
By Amy Lee
Evanescence

I can't see your star.
I can't see your star.
Though I patiently waited, bedside, for the death of today.
I can't see your star.
The mechanical lights of Lisbon frightened it away.

And I'm alone now,
Me and all I stood for.
We're wandering now.
All in parts and pieces, swim lonely, find your own way out.

I can't see your star.
I can't see your star.
How can the darkness feel so wrong?
And I'm alone now,
Me and all I stood for.
We're wandering now.
All in parts and pieces, swim lonely, find your own way out.

So far away.
It's growing colder without your love.
Why can't you feel me calling your name?
Can't break the silence,
It's breaking me.

All my fears turn to rage.
And I'm alone now,
Me and all I stood for.
We're wandering now.
All in parts and pieces, swim lonely, find your own way out.

Now, I have nothing worth fighting for.
We're wandering now,
All in parts and pieces, swim lonely,find your own way out.
