"When there's nothing left to burn you have to set yourself on fire."

I have this song on my myspace page...
The group Stars from the album "Set Yourself On Fire"
The song is "Your Ex-Lover is Dead"
When there is nothing left to burn
You have to set yourself on fire
God that was strange to see you again
Introduced by a friend of a friend
Smiled and said "yes I think we've met before"
In that instant it started to pour
Captured a taxi despite all the rain
We drove in silence across Pont Champlain
And all of that time you thought I was sad
I was trying to remember your name
This scar is a fleck on my porcelain skin
You tried to reach deep but you couldn't get in
And now you're outside me you see all the beauty
Repent all your sin
It's nothing but time and a face that you'll lose
I chose to feel it and you couldn't choose
I'll write you a postcard, I'll send you the news
From the house down the road, from real love
Live through this and you won't look back
Live through this and you won't look back
Live through this and you won't look back
There's one thing I want to say so I'll be brave
You were what I wanted, I gave what I gave
I'm not sorry I met you
I'm not sorry it's over
I'm not sorry there's nothing to save
I'm not sorry there's nothing to save
They have a myspace page and it is spoken before the song starts...you can hear it for yourself. You may have to look at the liner notes from the CD to know where they "borrowed" the line.

Stars is not a rock band. They are not a pop band. They are a great Canadian band who are competent in making complex, expansive, expressive, emotive soundscapes with an array of instruments.
Stars create music that is deep and purposeful, which will put your heart on ice and your mind in a dreamland where the good guys are winning.
The album "Set Yourself On Fire",
(Vocal Sample) "When there's nothing left to burn, you have to set yourself on fire."
