the mark of the black star


David Bowie has his Black star
Riding high on the musical chart
He gets his high when he is gone
A dream he finally makes the cut

We have our own Black star
Riding in our minds achieving high
On a wrong way making us cry
Every day when we wake up to read

The old song still rings
The lies still cut deeply in the mind
The falling leaves covering the marks
The breezes sweep the leaves away

The mark of the Black star
It shines in the daylight sun
We try to ignore it
But we know we can't be the fools

We have to decide ourselves
We have enough of the old song
It brings us shame and pain
Reading about it every day
