cut me into little stars and cast me into the sky,
cause there doesn't seem to be any out here tonight .
i'm hungry and i'm tired, clumsy and i'm cold ,
and this one way track with no way back is getting pretty old,

and i was walking in the dark,
just walking in the dark,
skipping across highways, taking shortcuts through the park.
oh i was walking in the dark,
walking in the dark,
skipping across highways, taking shortcuts through the park.

i think that the strangest thing that i ever saw,
was a boy in a yellow shirt playing his guitar ,
for an audience that didn't even seem to exsist ,
but he spoke just like the ocean, with an angel in his fist,

and i was walking in the dark,
just walking in the dark,
skipping across highways, taking shortcuts through the park .
oh i was walking in the dark,
walking in the dark,
skipping across highways, taking shortcuts through the park.

sleep is for the souless and tomorrow never comes ,
redeeming myself means walking towards the sun ,
and that boy with the yellow shirt, he madly strums ,
with a rhythm i can't contemplate with my fingers or my thumbs.

so i'm just walking in the dark,
just walking in the dark,
skipping across highways, taking shortcuts through the park .
oh i was walking in the dark,
walking in the dark,
skipping across highways, taking shortcuts through the park.
