lyrics
I wished upon a shooting star to pardon me from death, the words pronounced in passing uttered underneath my breath, all that's worth a life must turn to bone but I was young and feared the great unknown
So I lived until a ripe old age then lived and lived some more, found a mate to share the weight had children by the score, outlasted every soul I'd ever met try to pass the time with love but soon forget
A thousand failed suicides attract the public eye, scientists from all around would prod and poke and pry, tried to take a gift they can't define, but endless life is not a gift of mine
So I went into seclusion just as soon as I could make it free, I walked across this hateful land and floated out to sea, lost remaining hope of my rebirth, apricity she came to me as the sun engulfed what was left of the earth
Deep inside the fire's grasp I lost my sense of sight
Space it closed around me then bitter black devoid of light
But I could see the shooting stars and mustered up the words
I opened up my lips to speak but had no air to end this living curse
So I watched as one by one all the lights they flickered dim, and eventually they all went out leaving nothing where they'd been
I wished upon a shooting star to excuse me from my death, I'd wish for it to end somehow but now there're no stars left
So I lived until a ripe old age then lived and lived some more, found a mate to share the weight had children by the score, outlasted every soul I'd ever met try to pass the time with love but soon forget
A thousand failed suicides attract the public eye, scientists from all around would prod and poke and pry, tried to take a gift they can't define, but endless life is not a gift of mine
So I went into seclusion just as soon as I could make it free, I walked across this hateful land and floated out to sea, lost remaining hope of my rebirth, apricity she came to me as the sun engulfed what was left of the earth
Deep inside the fire's grasp I lost my sense of sight
Space it closed around me then bitter black devoid of light
But I could see the shooting stars and mustered up the words
I opened up my lips to speak but had no air to end this living curse
So I watched as one by one all the lights they flickered dim, and eventually they all went out leaving nothing where they'd been
I wished upon a shooting star to excuse me from my death, I'd wish for it to end somehow but now there're no stars left

about
Warpstar Tucson, Arizona
In 2011, three guys formed a band and played a handful of shows, then hid in a cave in the middle of the desert for five years. When they came out they released their debut album in 2016. This is the story of that band.
