Lyrics

The stars light the sky
And a galaxy of emptiness tonight
Though I happiest when there's no reason for me to be
With no-ones expectation to weigh heavy on my heart
And so much hope it sometimes tear me all apart
Could you please knock me off my feet for awhile
Could you please knock me off my feet for awhile

The stars light a sky
And a gutter full of broken dreams tonight
Though I'm not content that's the way it seems to be
Still I've been fighting all week
Though I don't know who for
Hoping someone else, somewhere near knows the score
Could you please knock me off my feet for awhile
Could you please knock me off my feet for awhile

When there's a galaxy of emptiness tonight
A whole wide galaxy of emptiness tonight
A whole wide galaxy of emptiness tonight

Monkey see, monkey do
I spent my whole life surrounded by people like you
With all that expectation to weigh heavy on your heart, and
No ideas to later tear it all apart, won't you please knock
Me off my feet for awhile, won't you please knock me off my
Feet for awhile

When there's a galaxy of emptiness tonight
A whole wide galaxy of emptiness tonight
A whole wide galaxy of emptiness tonight

Burn burn burn your soul to find
Burn burn burn your soul away
Burn your soul to find
Your soul to find
