Is It Far

A tribute to "STARGAZER" by Ronnie James Dio Where are you in the constellation Where do we fit in the whip-chained nation Towers of stone and flesh and bone Can’t bring the sun from the shadow Won’t save the sun from the shadow And time has no meaning As the dead are all leaving Leaving all the living behind Their voices echo in my mind The desert sand spins As we come to our ends And we leave all the living behind With their voices echoing blind Is it far, is it far Tell me how far To your constellation high in the stars Our time has come And then passed us by Leaving but a memory Beneath a Neptune dark sky Is it far, is it far Tell me how far To the wizard’s constellation
