Jewel - Star Child Lyrics
A child 5 years of age stared into the sunShe stared into the bright lights so long itBurnt a hole in her mind and branded her eyesIt imprinted upon her soul, mysteries of both young and oldAnd then shed close her eyes tight to feel the darknessShes a dancing girl, dancing girlShe danced so fast, so fineShe danced around with her eyes shutTo see the stars in her mindA spinning jupiter, a spinning marsShe herself was just a singing starA breathing constellationCause shes a bright point of lightTraveling through the skies of her mindOh and how she knew the starsAnd the map of the human heartFor long lengths of time, shed stay in her mindAnd follow roads back, ancient tracks and primitive timesWhen giant birds lifted themselves ofStarry wings to burn white, fiery silhouettes into the night skyShes a dancing girl, dancing girlShe danced for themAnd she followed all the lines backTo where they did beginShe saw her mother in pegas wingsShe felt her father in a scorpial stingA genetic constellationCause she was a bright point of lightTraveling through the skies of her mindOh and how she knew the starsAnd the map of the human heartShe saw bursting flowers made of lucride stoneShooting stars who songs sang to her bonesShe saw stories her grandfather used to tellHis flesh was frozen was frozen and kept so wellAnd a clear meeting of words, but pictures toTell her what she knew she needed to hearShes a dancing girl, dancing girlShe danced so fast, so wellAnd she danced until her knees got weakAnd all resistance fellAnd all the walls, they came tumbling downShe stood eyes open, back on the groundWiser, full of gloryShe was a bright point of lightTraveling through the skies of her mindOh and how she knew the starsAnd the map of the human heart
