Dead Eye To Star

Where do you keep them
What realm is out there
Why the big secret 
Christ, you're not being fair

Where do they float to
Or is it just lie
For you leave us just bones
and some prayers to get by

But most of us don't lord
We don't get by at all
Our hearts spilling grief as we
gaze up and call

Squinting at sunlight
Or... dead eye to star
Where do you keep them
Lord...how far is far?
