GATEWAY TO THE STARS

His friends all hate him and he has to tip-toe round their feelings
Theyre cold and distant ‘cause hes overwhelmed with other dealings
Theyre just confused because they cant believe he could be leaving
That was all yesterday
Its no big deal its not like she hasnt been through this often
Too much to do always driving her to an early coffin
But she thought in time that the pressures of her youth would soften
That was all yesterday
Bah ba buh bah baah
The past will kill you if you let it
Bah ba buh bah baah
The past will kill you anyway
And if all our friends forgot us would we cease to exist
Would the devil make an offer that we couldnt resist
If you cant release the past its like a chain across the gateway to the star-rs
Theres your offer of assistance and I thank you for that
Theres a woman taking bets that its all gonna fall flat
If you cant release the past its like a chain across the gateway to the star-rs
Evry thing that hes worked for suddenlys of no importance
Whats lies behind that door presents a whole new set of choices
Now the librettos changed its sung in many different voices
That was all yesterday
Bah ba buh bah baah
The past will kill you if you let it
Bah ba buh bah baah
The past will kill you anyway
Is it e-ven me thats thinking this and talking this way
Or is some cosmic ventriloquist just having his say
If you cant release the past its like a chain across the gateway to the star-rs
Though we wont give up resisting it aint gonna be fun
‘Cause the puppet masters fist is up inside everyone
If you cant release the past its like a chain across the gateway to the star-rs
And if all our friends forgot us would we cease to exsist
Would the devil make an offer that we couldnt resist
If you cant release the past its like a chain across the gateway to the star-rs
Though we wont give up resistance its not gonna be fun
‘Cause the puppet masters fist is up inside everyone
If you cant release the past its like a chain across the gateway to the star-rs
