Buy The Stars
You bought a star in the sky tonightBecause your life is dark and it needs some lightYou named it after me, but I’m not yours to keepBecause you’ll never see, that the stars are free
Oh we don’t own our heavens nowWe only own our hellAnd if you don’t know that by nowThen you don’t know me that well
All my life I’ve been so lonelyAll in the name of being holyStill, you’d like to think you know meYou keep buyin’ starsAnd you could buy up all of the stars,But it wouldn’t change who you areYou’re still living life in the darkIt’s just who you areIt’s just who you are
You bought a star in the sky tonightAnd in your man-made darkThe light inside you died
Oh we don’t own our heavens nowWe only own our hellAnd if you don’t know that by nowThen you don’t know me that well
All my life I’ve been so lonelyAll in the name of being holyStill, you’d like to think you own meYou keep buyin’ starsAnd you could buy up all of the stars,But it wouldn’t change who you areYou’re still living life in the darkIt’s just who you areIt’s just who you are
You know only how to own meYou know only how to own me
You’re buying stars to shut out the lightWe come alone and alone we dieAnd no matter how hard you tryI’ll always belong in the sky
And you could buy up all of the stars,But it wouldn’t change who you are.You’re still living life in the darkIt’s just who you areIt’s just who you areIt’s who you areIt’s who you areIt’s who you areIt’s who you areIt’s who you areIt’s who you areIt’s who you areIt’s who you are
