A star wouldn’t fall for you if I made it bleed

Come see what good has come of your good deed

I’ll never begin to imagine just what it was like before

The day when you walked out of my life; my heart you tore

Oh, I can’t look at the sun when it shines so bright

Because now all I’m used to is the absence of delight

Don’t worry where I am, there is no time to stall

What only matters is that you’re happy, you deserve it all

What do I know, it was all a blur, I didn’t think it through

Didn’t know that the reason why I cried all night was you

I couldn’t see that it was me who needs to change to keep it right

After now, the greatest thing that I’ll protect is my pride

Let’s dance for a bit, to the tune of a song worthy of a king

Let’s reminisce those joyous times when the status numbed the sting

Wasn’t it great when everything was not in its place?

And when I should’ve been feeling lonely, a smile was on my face?

I guess that’s what happens when the feeling takes the wheel

You lose what you had that made you someone, don’t know what is real

Time and again I’ll hear you say that I was just too kind

I shouldn’t have let all myself be dragging belong behind

Oh, I can’t look at the sun when it shines so bright

Because now all I’m used to is the absence of delight

Don’t worry where I am, there is no time to stall

What only matters is that you’re happy, you deserve it all

What do I know, it was all a blur, I didn’t think it through

Didn’t know that the reason why I cried all night was you

I couldn’t see that it was me who needs to change to keep it right

After now, the greatest thing that I’ll protect is my pride

If I could compare you to something I know will represent you well

I would choose the knife that’s dull and light, but still hurts like hell

You cut me open and let me bleed, just like I would do to the stars

Still they wouldn’t fall for you, not Venus, Saturn, or Mars

You don’t know what you’ve done, so I’ll spell it out for you

That way you can at least have somewhat of a clue

Oh, I can’t look at the sun when it shines so bright

Because now all I’m used to is the absence of delight

Don’t worry where I am, there is no time to stall

What only matters is that you’re happy, you deserve it all

What do I know, it was all a blur, I didn’t think it through

Didn’t know that the reason why I cried all night was you

I couldn’t see that it was me who needs to change to keep it right

After now, the greatest thing that I’ll protect is my pride
