Even The Stars Can Be Hollow

I trust that everything that happened to us
Happened so we’d improve
Everything is proof
Everything you do

But you’ve got the softest arms
I have ever known
The softest arms that I could hold
Or that could hold me

Travel far away, where the neighbors talk
And I’ll go away to an adjacent park
I want to go to doose’s market
Or anywhere there’s a doose’s

(I am alive, and with your body close to mine)
Because even the softest arms
(I’m suddenly occupied)
Can’t bear to hold
(With the reasons that I could try)
Such a fragile frame
(To be something that you would like)
Such a broken soul
(Like a star in the open sky)
I’ve got a broken soul
(Like a beam of light)
