lyrics

Lying down on the grass
Watching starry nights and wonderful lights
"So tell me, what do you see"
"I see insignificant little beings"
"They look so nice"

"Look even closer, what can you find"
"I can find myself within each of those lights"
"Once shining all so bright"
"Now fizzling out with no signs of life"

But a star can only shine so bright
A bird can only fly so high
You can try to reach the sun
In the end you'll burn out

You're drowning underwater yet you don't want to swim back up
Your head's in the clouds out of fear
Body's getting frail with no time to rest
You can't live with your imperfections, you wish you were someone else

Now wake up from your dream
Staring at your phone with messages unseen
Do you remember the words you've said
And the actions that have left you filled with dread?
They're eating you up

Reading your journal, pen in hand
Shading out the aspirations you once had
"I'll never make it, not at all
For the bridges I've burned has made me fall"

The raindrops keep falling
On your tear-stained weary soul
Your whirlwind spins fast and out of control
And all you can do is observe
The damage that's been done

You're drowning underwater yet you don't want to swim back up
Your head's in the clouds out of fear
Body's getting frail with no time to rest
You can't live with your imperfections
You've been running from your truths and embracing your lies
When will you take off your disguise
Nothing's on fire but you're burning inside
You can't attempt to open your eyes to the truth that resides

With no one to hold you by your side
You go back to hiding in your mind
You find your life and the memories inside

And they tell you
Count from 1, 2, 3
And take a breath with me
Don't look back at your regrets
Don't listen to the failures that are in your head
Push away all those fears
For this moment, and this second, you're here
It's not your fault, it's not your fault
You can't shine as bright
You will see the sun in time
You wish the stars another goodnight
