Staring up into the solar system,

All the stars are fixed up in the sky.

I just want to sparkle for a moment

Before I just fizzle out and die.

I'm happy because I'm stupid.

'Cause my heart gets broken so easily.
Am Dsus2
So just be gentle, be gentle with me.
G C
Wide awake, waiting like a target

Listening for things I cannot see.

Insects flutter up against my window.
