lyrics

She want to be a scientist
Now she’s a parking lot attendant
Down by the bank

You want to be an astronaut?
Is that the best you’ve got?
A damned parking lot?

Goodnight, universe
Goodnight, universe
Goodnight

I never owned a telescope
But I can understand the feeling
The Ecstatic Dream

If you’re going to fight to claim the stars
Or write a song on your guitar
You’ll bear the scars

Goodnight, universe
Goodnight, universe
Goodnight

If they know the words, they’ll sing along
And if they don’t they’ll call you wrong
And every punch just makes them strong
Until they stop your song

Can’t spin a fantasy for you
But I can hold you close and whisper
“Face the truth”

For every consummated dream
Marks the death of seventeen
And stars go unseen

Goodnight, universe
Goodnight, universe
Goodnight

There’s no shame in it
There’s no shame in it
There’s no shame in it
There’s no shame in it

Goodnight
Goodnight

Kristopher Wright Austin, Texas

Kris is too tired to write yet another biography in the third-person in an attempt to trick you guys into thinking he has a publicist or something. Just listen to the songs or don't. I don't care anymore.
