Underneath the Stars

Here we go again

The screaming match begins

We are stuck in this endless chain

And I can’t break free

I just asked you a simple question

And all I get is your aggression

Believe me this wasn’t my intention

To restart this 100-year-old war between us

I am sitting on the hood of your car

Underneath the stars

Wondering where we went wrong

Blocking out the words you use as weapons

Do you remember that night?

Sitting in your car

The windows open

Do you remember how we never used to fight?

The music, a soft noise in the background

The scent of weed all around us

Why can’t this be us tonight?

And I could see you through the smoky haze

And you smile at me

That night the stars were so bright

The brightest I’ve ever seen them

Twinkling above us miles away

The stars were in your eyes

as you told me you loved me

And I believed you and fell

And now we are stuck in this hell

This never-ending spell

And I don’t know how to break free

And as I watch the stars go out

The love we once had begins to fade

And I wonder how it came to this

How did we find ourselves in the middle of the night

With a starless sky

Always fighting

Until we can no longer recognize who we are

Do you remember?

The way the light shone

Do you remember?

The shooting stars that night

Do you remember how we kissed?

and you ran your fingers through my hair and held me tight.

I’m sitting on your car

Praying to the stars

Please bring back your light

Don’t leave us in the dark tonight

You stop screaming

And you turn to look at me

And I know the look in your eyes

You remember that night

You remember the starlight

But you can’t do this anymore

We are losing ourselves

We need to break this chain

We are going insane

The stars have died.
