By another star
At another place and time
In another state of consciousness
In another state of mind
Everything was almost perfect
Everything fell into place
The jury reached a different verdict
Before the judge dismissed the case
In a parallel universe
That's happening right now
Things between us must be worse
But it's hard to see just how
And everything could have been perfect
Everything in the right place
Then I wouldn't have to play the suspect
Accused, abandoned, and disgraced
I didn't shoot
I didn't pull the trigger
It wasn't me
I'm just a plain and simple singer
I heard the sound
I turned my head around
To watch our love shot down
In another lonely universe
We're laying side by side
And no one's hurt
And no one's cursed
And no one needs to hide
And everything is almost perfect
Everything is almost right
There are never any conflicts
There are never any fights
On another world By another star At another place and time In another state of consciousness In another state of mind Everything was almost perfect Everything fell into place The jury reached a different verdict Before the judge dismissed the case In a parallel universe That's happening right now Things between us must be worse But it's hard to see just how And everything could have been perfect Everything in the right place Then I wouldn't have to play the suspect Accused, abandoned, and disgraced I didn't shoot I didn't pull the trigger It wasn't me I'm just a plain and simple singer I heard the sound I turned my head around To watch our love shot down In another lonely universe We're laying side by side And no one's hurt And no one's cursed And no one needs to hide And everything is almost perfect Everything is almost right There are never any conflicts There are never any fights Explain Request ×
