Album: The X‐Files: Songs in the Key of X

They are not stars
Burning in the sky at night
No, no they're candles

In astral flight

They are not men
Walking on the streets below
What are they really
Nobody knows

They are not stars
We are not human
I don't know the reason why
A firefly is not a candle
Not a flower in my eye
And so, a rose is not a rose
By that or any other name
Things remain unexplained

I am a tree
Dancing on the ocean floor
The air is water
On desert shores

There is a face
Painted on the salty moon
The tree singing
This silent tune

They are not stars
We are not human
I don't know the reason why
A firefly is not a candle
Not a flower in my eye
And so, a rose is not a rose
By that or any other name
Things remain unexplained

They are not stars
We are not human
I don't know the reason why
A firefly is not a candle
Not a flower in my eye
And so, a rose is not a rose
By that or any other name
Things remain unexplained

They are not stars
We are not human
I don't know the reason why
A firefly is not a candle
Not a flower in my eye
And so, a rose is not a rose
By that or any other name
Things remain unexplained
