Slash – Starlight lyrics
In the distance light years from tomorrow
Far beyond yesterday
She is watching, heart aching with sorrow
She is broken, as she waits
Hoping when all is said and done we learn to love and be as one

Chorus

Oh Starlight, don’t you cry we're gonna make it right before tomorrow
Oh Starlight, don’t you cry we’re gonna find a place where we belong (where we belong)
And so you know, you’ll never shine alone

There are shadows sleeping on the horizon
Leave us scared and so afraid
As the fallout of a world divided
It brings her tears and so much pain
So we take cover from the dark
Hoping to find where we can start

Chorus

Oh Starlight, don’t you cry we're gonna make it right before tomorrow
Oh Starlight, don’t you cry we’re gonna find a place where we belong (where we belong)
And so you know, you’ll never shine alone
Starlight we’ll find a place where we belong (we belong)

You will see as the mountains fall and turn to dust
And there’s one thing that won’t change
I believe there is something within each of us that always stays
That will always remain as long as love never fades

Chorus

Oh Starlight, don’t you cry we're gonna make it right before tomorrow
Oh Starlight, don’t you cry we’re gonna find a place where we belong (where we belong)
And so you know, you’ll never shine alone
Starlight we’ll find a place where we belong (we belong)

She is watching, heart aching with sorrow
She is broken, as she waits

    I think this song is about two people that love each other so much but are having trouble between them and it hurts them a lot.
    "I believe there is something within each of us that always stays
    That will always remain as long as love never fades"
    That part made tears come out of my eyes because my gf and I just broke up. This part says that there is a feeling between those two people, and that feeling will be there as long as they keep loving each other.

    I think it means that there is so far for humanity to go and that there is a better way, to share, to tolerate, to love, to be humane and that the choice is ours. We can choose to be better, or we can choose to watch the mountains turn to dust.
    If we choose the light and not the dark, choose love instead of hate and choose our collective good and not our own selfish needs then we can shine!

    I think this song is about the universe or our cosmic mother watching all the pain and suffering from across the veil. Watching all the pain, all the sorrow, all the suffering that goes on in the world, waiting for us to learn. But while she watches her heart aches for us and with us. But all she's doing is waiting for us to become one with her and eliminate all of the pain and sorrow we cause each other.
    Starlight (a light beyond our sun, or beyond our reach) don't you cry we're gonna make it right before tomorrow. (the writer of the song is making progressive steps in their life to be positive today, not tomorrow, before tomorrow. Overall it's a song of sadness, change, and overall. Hope.

    In one 2. 5 year time period, I lost my wife, my home, my job, my healthcare, my father died of non hodgkin's lymphoma, I almost lost my leg in a severe motorcycle accident, I couldn't even stand for 21 months, my brother went to prison, and just when I thought it was over, I ran to the farthest place I could on this planet (that still speaks english) enrolled in school there, I thought maybe, just maybe this dark storm in my life is over and I can move on. 2 months later, my roommate and best friend at school killed himself the week before christmas. I suppose it means the only wrong thing you can do, is quit. Believe, work hard, don't develop some of the bad habits I did during this period, and somewhere from the other side you'll begin to see that starlight. There were so many times I didn't think I'd I'd make it, even more times I didn't care if I made it. I just couldn't take that dull pain that so many wounds had caused over and over and over again. Had my life ended any of the many times I threw it on the craps table, that would have been ok by me. The lord and most people love a come from behind story. It ain't easy but it beats the other options.
    I now see things I could never have seen before like the fact that whomever or whatever spiritual being you believe in or pray to, mine kept me alive for a reason. It's not clear to me yet what that reason is, but I know there is one. No one could possibly live through all the things I did, and still survive without devine intervention. Don't misunderstand me, I am not one of these people you hear of that "found jesus on the jailhouse floor". I knew though, I didn't have to die to go to hell, I was pretty much a full time resident in that zip code. It's been almost 10 years now since all that happened. I have adjusted, but i'll never be who I was again. I kinda believe though, that was the plan all along, to make me into this new person, with a life and a purpose that is still coming together. That's all I know.

    She is watching (our own higher self/Soul) Hoping they awaken the Starseeds and Light Workers (human race on Earth) so divided not by love and hate, but by generation programming the fear feeders baby boomers generation stuck in society strict Norms and belief and on the other divide awakened lightworkers and star seeds are using there subconsious powers to travel in other realms, Power to heal, ascend, and teach the human race of who they and what they can do when awaken,

    Darkness on the horizon, controllers of how we meant to think eat sleep work, dumbing people down and blocking and other thought considered out side of society Norms and belief. Fear feeders hide under this system they know, know better but what's been told or sold to them.
    We all are celestial starseeds and light workers .
    Awaken
    Activate
    Open ur Chakra
    Turn Energy into light ...
    Or not
    WhereWe belong
