Evening Star Lyrics


I traveled to a distant shore
I felt I had to go
An inner voice had called me there
But why I did not know
I saw the Evening Star rise up
Shining out to sea
And now I understand at last what it means
What it all means

Evening star I can see the light
Evening star guiding me so bright

I used to tempt fate
I couldn't see straight
I faltered through my younger days
Never knowing where I was going
Then something helped me penetrate the haze

Evening star I can see the light
Evening star guiding me so bright

Now I am stronger
The haze no longer
Ruins my future destiny
Such inspirations and new sensations
Pull up these string ties chasing me

Evening star I can see the light
Evening star guiding me so bright

I'm home once more, much better for
The things that I have found
Much wiser now, so simple how
Each time I turn around
I see the evening star rise up
Shining out on me
And now I understand at last what it means
What it all means

Evening star I can see the light
Evening star guiding me so bright

Evening Star
  • A Christmas carol. This song describes the journey of the Magi from a first person perspective.
  • The album was called Killing Machine in the UK, and Hell Bent For Leather in America. Several songs on the album and the previous album, Stained Class fit together to tell the life story of the Christian deity Yehoshua ben Nazareth (in English, Jesus of Nazareth).
