Put Back the Stars

There are few song out there that really hit me in the chest. But there's even fewer that almost bring me to tears. I've heard this song dozens of times, but it wasn't until I played it the other day with the lyrics in front of me that it hit me on a level of myself that I need to remodel after some serious damage.

Blindside - Put Back the Stars

Put back the stars

I'm out of shape tonight
Pinhole black velvet navigation-skills got lost
with the fading light
It was there not more then a second ago
Now what do you know, what I do know
Is just not good enough to make things right
So put back the stars
I'm out of place tonight

Ain’t it something to know you’re lost
Ain't it something to know you’re lost
Ain't it something to know you’ve lost

I hoist my sail
Though there is no wind in sight
And I close my eyes to feel the fresh breeze
Paint the inside of my eyelids bright
Fill the sky with your breath
Cause you know I’m out of mine
Let the sky burn and I will inhale
Without a fight
So I hoist my sail
And I'll just wait for you tonight

Ain't it something to know you’ve lost
Ain't it something to know you’ve lost
Ain't it something to know you’ve lost

Black tar surround me now
But life is the next door neighbor
On the outside there is just absence
But when I close my eyes
All I see is your face

Ain't it something to know you're lost
Ain't it something to know you're lost
Ain't it something to know you're lost
Ain't it something to know you're lost

Ain’t it something to know you’ve lost
Ain’t it something to know you’ve lost
Ain’t it something I know I’ve lost

Although I question the legality of the site you can download this song or album here pretty cheap at high quality and DRM free.

  • They have a whole slew of responses to the legality on their site under their FAQ. It's still legit, until our liberal left wing congress decides to revise the law to reflect the ill wishes of the industry powered by THE MAN.

    That is a good song though...I concur.

  • I love small print. Although...with a site that awesome, you need to make that in big print.

    I'm going to get a t-shirt made that says "I download all my songs from russia for pennies on the dollar".

    The worst was when they were having web issues and everything was in russian. I was buying songs with no idea how much i was paying.
