| | Star Light, Star Bright |
 | | Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight, wish I may, wish I might, wish and wish and wish and wish. |
 | | All alone, the tunnel and the overpass, the rutted pavement and shattered glass, this is the poem you sing. |
 | | The moths gather at the light, the light gathers on the table, a solitary fly gathers on the ear, the ear gathers on the bloody handkerchief, the handkerchief gathers momentum, while the two of you watch and gather a sad harvest of your own. |
