The Brightest Star As soon as we arrived We started taking sides And restless minds can’t leave things as they are We split the atom (Adam) and Eve And fight for what we believe And dream of being heaven’s brightest star But what if stars in the night Are remnants of fights where worlds like ours ceased to be? They seem all right, so clear and bright But burning with a deadly light And now it’s ours to lose If we’re the fools who choose To be the Brightest Star we’ll never see.
