[Verse 1] Under the stars, I took the long way down Past St. John’s Soup Kitchen, past the shuttered town Steam from the bowls, salt in the cold air Hands at the door like a prayer laid bare FBI van parked by the curbside edge Juggalos laugh on the chain-link ledge Time travelers blink, then they vanish clean Like a bad dream folding in the seam Ancient hands draw signs in the dust on stone Multi-sentient voices in one throat-tone Aliens lean in with a silver grin Say, “You been lost, but you still fit in” [Pre-Chorus] Angels above me Demons below Jinn in the hallway Tell me what I know Souls in the rafters Ghosts in the rain All of them call me Back to my name [Chorus] All that, all that Under the stars All that, all that Tattooed on my scars All that, all that Heaven and harm All that, all that Sleeping in my arms [Verse 2] At the soup line, everybody got a code Bread in the bowl and a map to the road A cop in a tie and a clown with a crown Both keep staring like they know this town An alien child with a paper plate Asks if the end is just a change of state I said, “Maybe, if the moon says so” Then the walls lit up with a soft white glow Ghost in the corner, she tapped my sleeve Said, “Don’t trust the ones who promise leave” A demon smiled with a borrowed face An angel cried in a flawless place [Pre-Chorus] Angels above me Demons below Jinn in the hallway Tell me what I know Souls in the rafters Ghosts in the rain All of them call me Back to my name [Chorus] All that, all that Under the stars All that, all that Tattooed on my scars All that, all that Heaven and harm All that, all that Sleeping in my arms [Bridge] I seen the old rites in a basement ring Saw twelve moons rise from a paper king Saw one face split into three, then four Then the room went still like an open door If you’re a sinner, if you’re made of light If you came from ash or you came from night If you’re here to stay or just passing through The sky keeps room for the strange and true [Chorus] All that, all that Under the stars All that, all that Tattooed on my scars All that, all that Heaven and harm All that, all that Sleeping in my arms [Outro] Souls and ghosts And names unseen All that falls Between the beams Under the stars I still believe There’s room for you And room for me
