Flyin' high, starcrossed lovers of the night

Flyin' high, starcrossed lovers of the night

You're flying high into a sky of screaming stars

Across a universe erected in your heart

Where tomorrow always comes from yesterday's departed

Crimes...Designs...Mischief on your mind

Venus in her chariot of fire draws her flame

Passion pours herself a drink and calls you by her name

Slippin'...Slidin'...Sacrificing love for something nameless

that seems a little nearer to your dreams are here

Take another cup of sin and fill it up

Take another sip of hemlock to your lips

Be deceived by lies and you're flying high

Flyin' high, starcrossed lovers of the night

Flyin' high, starcrossed lovers of the night

A kind of atrophy affected you at birth

So instead of living you decided you were dead

Lovers of the night in your confusion

You stand and then you fall

In your illusion

And you'll try flyin' high

You better come down, still flying high

You better come down, you're on the moon

You better come down
