Galaxies to Hide Me

Am I coward because I was afraid to love 
Afraid that it would hurt too much 
Even light has to fade 
Even heroes have to run away 

Sometimes goodbye is the only way 
When you find yourself too afraid
You fooled me once, you fooled me twice 
You fooled the Jester one too many times 

This smile has carried me far enough 
God send the chariot to pick me up 
Carry me to that Kingdom Come 
God please I've had enough 

Better days aren't far ahead 
But I'd rather dream among the stars instead 
Where masks are just patterns in the sky 
Where there's nothing but galaxies to hide behind
