Northern Star (Live at Big Day Out)

[Verse 1]

And I cry and no one can hear, inhale

The blinded eyes that see the chaos

Bring the pitiful to me

Even though I'm wide-awake, I will

And blackest night and I wait for you

It's cold in here, there's no one left

And I wait for you

And nothing stops it happening

And I knew, I'd cherish all my misery alone

[Chorus]

And I wait, staring at the Northern Star

I'm afraid it won't lead you anywhere

He's so cold, he will rule the world tonight

All the angels kneel into the Northern Lights

Kneel into the frozen lights

[Verse 2]

And they paid, I cry and cried for you

Ghosts that haunt you with thеir sorrow

I cried 'cause you werе doomed

Praying to the wound that swallows

All that's cold and cruel

Can you see the trees, charity and gratitude

They run to the pines

It's black in here, blot out the sun

And run to the pines

Our misery runs wild and free

And baby, I knew, the fire and the ashes of his grace

[Chorus]

And I wait, glaring at the Northern Star

I'm afraid it won't lead us anywhere

He's so cold, he will rule the world tonight

All the angels kneel into the frozen lights

Kneel into the frozen lights

[Verse 3]

Hey, we are terrified

We are naked, we are wall-eyed

We have all of us, all died

I will see you, I will see you

I will see you on the other side

[Bridge]

And I want you

And blessed are the broken

And I beg you

No loneliness, no misery is worth you

No, tear his heart out, cold as ice

It's mine

[Chorus]

And I wait, praying to the Northern Star

I'm afraid it won't lead me anywhere

He's so cold, raining on the world tonight

All the angels kneeling to the Northern Lights

And I pray, begging to the Northern Star

I'm afraid it won't lead you anywhere

He's so cold, he will rule the world tonight

All the angels kneeling to the Northern Lights

Kneeling to the frozen lights

You feel their hearts, they're cold as ice
