The furthest star in the sky,
|
Well that's the one that passed me by.
|
I tried to wish upon that star,
|
It didn't get me very far.
|
It fell on empty ears,
|
It fell on empty hearts.
|
And my dreams, they fell apart.
|
|
I'm always wishing I was someone else,
|
I'm always hoping I can sell myself
|
|
But I'll be free for what I believe
|
And I won't sell my soul just to achieve my goal.
|
And I've been holding back the tears, dreaming all these years.
|
And I sing from the heart if you'll listen to me,
|
Everything I do is what I believe.
|
|
The lights went out across the world
|
And your house of cards came tumbling down
|
Cause nothing stays and noting sticks
|
When you're rolling with the lunatics.
|
But my star in the darkest sky
|
Twinkles and watches while the other stars die
|
Upon your empty ears and empty hearts.
|
|
I'm always wishing I was someone else,
|
But I've given up the goals, I will never sell myself.
|
|
But I'll be free for what I believe
|
And I won't sell my soul just to achieve my goal.
|
And I've been holding back the tears, dreaming all these years.
|
And I sing from the heart if you'll listen to me,
|
Everything I do is what I believe.
|
|
The furthest star in the sky,
|
Well that's the one that passed me by.
|
I tried to wish upon that star,
|
It didn't get me very far.
