The Star, The Word, The Girl, The Song

It was the star they said
The one that fell
That flaming wish
Angels did foretell
To bring this world
From ruin to life
And save our souls
From hate and strife
It was the star that fell

It was the word they told
The one which passed
Through years of old
And songs and dust
A word of hope
Of sorrow and love
To rejoice to fear
Those who rule above
It was the word which passed

It was a girl they warned
The girl would smile
The one who played
And stayed a while
Her tears of love
Could steal a soul
A joy only
The innocent would know
It was her that smiled

It was a song they sang
The song we know
Of rage and of hate
Of love that we show
To speak of this world
And know of its soul
The girl and her word
The star that she stole
It was a song we sang
