Stood in the rain and watched you go
I feel a lump in my throat
And this is far from joy
I never seemed to learn,
that high makes things harder
that high I get from you
I've figured out that joy is not in your arms
I know I'll always ache with an empty heart
I think it's time to run cos I'm seeing stars
I'm seeing stars, watch me fall apart
I think of dying all the time
but I've got joy to take my side
fear is my favourite ride
Channeling a little upper-register Houston in this pastoral-cum-explosive choir-backed hymn, all is uplifting until wising up to what she’s going on about. A dramatic rain scene, a lump in the throat, and a literal iteration of the song title all in the starting verse marred by more sad robot speak.
