Stars in my eyes

I wrap my arms around this megalomania
Eyes froze in headlights
So close but always this distance
Between living, and just surviving
Two times I climbed this mountain
Nothing between and nothing's forgotten
This time I said to the skyline
Just you and me man, its just you and me
I place my world in a basket
Full of strides and full of wishes
Two times should be enough for me to deflate
But I'm not relating
I keep my arms around this
Just in case it tries to slip away
How tightly am I gripping, am I slipping
What's the answer

I've got stars in my eyes

I've traveled all the side roads
Leads me to some sort of station
Should I've been a lifetime younger
Lifetimes older, what's the meaning
Just one thing--its shining
Just one thing--its brightening
Just one thing--it beaming
just one thing--exploding

I wrap my arms around this
Megalomania eyes froze in headlights
So close but always this distance
Between living and just surviving
