lyrics

to be famous like the stars//
swallow blood and drink up alcohol//
your mind is wrapped on anything but her//

hold your stars//
i see them through the evergreen//

i’ve never seen a smile quite like yours//


but your heart//

is better off in hollywood//
and someday you’ll be mine//
if you swear with drunken eyes//
when everyone is bitter//
she won’t be coming back for more//
cause you’re mine//


so slow down//

stumble over solid ground//
tuck your belly to your feet//
or you will topple off the tree//
it’s moving so fast that i can’t even breathe//
when red water touches concrete//
i’m so sad//


when my eyes’ve grown tired//
cause no night can’t survive with just a flashlight of hope//
when all i said was bitter//

and words won’t bring her back for more//


all we do is touch//

i don’t think of you enough//
when you say that you’ll be gone//

i don’t want to be your love//


so i tell the thoughts to whisper//
if the words come leaking out//
oh my mind just seems to saunter//
at the thought of crashing clouds//


but i swear i found my home in the shadows and the blood//
just to break apart my body and be washed out by the sun//


and i don’t believe in sad news but you’re making me see it//
every bone my brain contracts in my body cant react to your love//



but your heart was better off in hollywood//
where you’ll nurse all the stars//

i’m sick of this place//
but i’m also scared for things to change//
where stars will fall off your walls//
