Lyrics:

There are stars faraway

That you might reach somehow

There are scars that will never heal

So why pretend they’ve gone away

Sweet prince don’t be sad

You were never meant to be here

The sword you hold in your hand

Well it’s mighty blow will set you on your patterned path into the next life

Found myself by your bed side

Looking out across the void

I was trying to say I love you

But you just turned and looked away

Sweet prince don’t be sad

You were never meant to be here

The sword you hold in your hand

Well it’s mighty blow will set you on your patterned path into the next life
