Starlight
Dynazty Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My downfall, I’m tripping on the edge
Push me in the back and I’ll be stepping right over.
Reality is tipping on it’s end. Push me in the back and you’ll be treading on a crack in the ice

Your silent scream it beckons to me but I’m to blind to see
Then I step into a dream and finally your eyes fade to black and I see

The starlight within shining a light over my galaxy
Colors spring to life, sending me into serenity
Yeah, the starlight within, a guider of life in a sense of divinity
And the spirit in me ceases to be
Your eyes fade to black and I see

Come nightfall, the beast again awakes
Crawling deep inside and I begin to feel the change taking over me
Stirring up a rage, push me in the back and he’ll be slipping right out of his cage

The horror scream, a catastrophe, the demon inside of me
Then I step into a dream and finally your eyes fade to black and I see

The starlight within shining a light over my galaxy
Colors spring to life, sending me into serenity
Yeah, the starlight within, I rule over life with a sense of divinity
And the devil in me ceases to be
Your eyes fade to black and I see

The starlight within shining a light over my galaxy
Spirits come alive, unveiling my violent complexity
The starlight within, a guider of life in a sense of divinity
Take me once and for all, my destiny calls
My eyes fade to black and I fall




And the spirit in me seizes to be
Your eyes fade to black and I see

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Dynazty's "Starlight" describe the internal struggle of a person battling their demons and their desire for transcendence. The singer feels as if they are on the edge of their downfall and that reality is tipping on its end. They are aware of their flaws, but at the same time they are blind to their own shortcomings, unable to see the silent screams that beckon them. However, they eventually find solace in a dream, where they see the starlight within them, which guides them to a sense of divinity and serenity. Yet, when they awake, they feel the beast inside them once again, creeping out of its cage, causing them to feel the need for a violent release. But in the end, they find comfort in the starlight once more, which helps them to overcome their inner demons and find their place in the universe.


The song's lyrics explore the dual nature of humanity, our capacity for both good and evil, transcendence and downfall, and the never-ending battle between those opposing forces that define us as human beings. It illustrates the idea of the human spirit and its ability to transcend its physical limitations, uniting with something greater beyond us, leading us to a state of inner peace and divinity.

Starlight

A census taker once tried to test me
I ate his liver with some fava
Beans and a nice chianti

My downfall, I'm tripping on the edge
Push me in the back and
I'll be stepping right over
Reality is tipping on it's end
Push me in the back and you'll be
Treading on a crack in the ice

Your silent scream it beckons to me
But I'm to blind to see
Then I step into a dream and finally your
Eyes fade to black and I see

The starlight within shining a
Light over my galaxy colors spring to life
Sending me into serenity
Yeah, starlight within
A guider of life in a sense of divinity
And the spirit in me ceases to be
Your eyes fade to black and I see

Come nightfall, the beast again awakes
Crawling deep inside and I begin to
Feel a change taking over me
Stirring up a rage
Push me in the back and he'll be
Slipping right out of his cage

The horror scream, a catastrophe
The demon inside of me
Then I step into a dream and finally your
Eyes fade to black and I see

The starlight within shining a
Light over my galaxy colors spring to life
Sending me into serenity
Yeah, starlight within
I rule over life with a sense of divinity
And the devil in me ceases to be
Your eyes fade to black and I see

The starlight within shining a
Light over my galaxy spirit's come alive
Unveiling my violent complexity
The starlight within
A guider of life in a sense of divinity
Take me once and for all, my destiny calls
My eyes fade to black and I fall
And the spirit in me seizes to be
Your eyes fade to black and I see

@greekfreak1980

I'm pretty impressed with the new album,these guys created a very unique sound,Power-Metal but without the usual cliches of the genre,modern sounding but not overproduced and it sound's pretty heavy,the guitarists are technically brilliant but they don't overdue it with the shredding,amazing vocals also.

@LSLButterfly

Well said greekfreak

@MetalAges

I can never hear this song enough. One of the greatest Melodic, Heavy, Power Metal hybrid tunes ever. Stellar all around (and the entire album was killer).

@MeTuLHeD

One of the most amazing melodic power metal songs I have ever heard!

This band has made themselves over in the most amazing way. From 80's metal to modern melodic power metal in one giant leap. As much as I liked their old material, I must admit this stuff blows it's doors off.

@waynecook1981

conversely, these guys went from studs to duds in my book. they're dead to me post 2012. bummer.

@ec-uploads

@@waynecook1981 Damn dude.

@deanjohnston137

Awesome song! Many bands are putting out mediocre releases these days. It's nice to see a band step it up in everyway, and put out a killer CD from start to finish.

@ChrisBeardcore

No matter how many years pass by , this song never gets old <3

@Biglew380
