AstroSo when you’re up past fiveAnd you glance up at the skyI’m watching you turn right back aroundI know you’re never tiredJust annoyed all the timeOnly so many things get you out of bed
Your face is inside outYou’re lying again just now‘Cause everything gold could stay the sameThe world didn’t end ‘cause of yesterday
So look me in the eyesAnd say you’d rather dieThe fear of failure saved you twiceYou’re throwing up your heartYou’re nothing but your thoughtsYou hate the world, and it loves you back
Your eyes are red and numbYour nose, it bleeds like hellBut months will go by where nothing’s changedAnd you’ll come to regret that time you wastedActing like it’s over‘Cause you’ve been too scared to speakI’ve been here for five billion yearsAnd I’ll be here for five billion more
I’ll check back in a yearYou’ll give me nothing newAnd you’ll say to me that you tried your bestI’ll know you lied your head offAnd I’ll love you either way‘Cause nothing changes when you’re not here
I’ve listened to all your songsAnd witnessed firsthand how you thinkI know you more than you know yourselfBut you’ve heard that all before
So once you’re up at eightYou’ll look me in the eyeOf course they were right, they always areAnd you still hate the bodyYou know there’s so much moreYou never really know yourself
Your eyes are red and numbYour nose, it bleeds like hellBut months will go by where nothing’s changedAnd you’ll come to regret that time you wastedActing like it’s over‘Cause you’ve been too scared to speakI’ve been here for five billion yearsAnd I’ll be here for five billion more
I’ve known you for a lifetimeAnd I’ve loved you for my lifetimeAnd I’ve watched you for a lifetimeKnow that even in the nighttimeI’ll be standing far below youShining light on those below youThough I didn’t do what I’d hoped toI can’t wait to get to know you
