Lyrics

Distorted Star

Distorted Star, I always wanted it

Distorted Star, I never needed it

Distorted Star, Am I just like all of you back home?

Back home?

It came too fast, it nearly broke me

We've gone so far, I thought that they would dissolve me

Distorted Star, Am I just like all of you back home?

Back home?

Distorted Star, I never wanted it

Distorted Star, I always needed it

Distorted Star, Am I just like all of you back home?

Back home?

Back home? (x10)

[Outro]
