The Star

Half the time
I don't think I know
Whether she loves me
God I hope so

No ordinary girl
She lights up the room
When our eyes connect
My cheeks bloom

Her glare smolders
And she throws me away
I only hope
She'll let me stay

In the grave
She's buried me
Six feet under
And I can't breathe

But I'm okay with that
As long as she's breathing
She could be standing on my windpipe
Watching me bleeding

I would gather the stars
And burn my skin
If only I could see
That mischievous grin

The star that she is
She puts herself out
She keeps getting hurt
But she won't let me shout

Baby I need you
You keep me alive
You're the reason my heart beats
So fast inside

My chest is caving in
I think I see her smile
That will keep me happy
For more than a while
