dying like a shooting star
Luke Lotus
You burned me up like a midnight flame
Lit my world but never knew my name
I gave you colors you couldn’t see
While you lived blind to the depth of me
Dying like a shooting star tonight
You made a wish and killed the light
Falling fast from the edge of who we are
Burnt to ash in your sky
A scar
Your words were daggers wrapped in lace
A pretty poison I can't replace
I held the Moon just to chase your Sun
But you dimmed every ray
Left me undone
Dying like a shooting star tonight
You made a wish and killed the light
Falling fast from the edge of who we are
Burnt to ash in your sky
A scar
I'm a constellation torn apart
Tattooed pain in an aching heart
You kissed the air and called it love
Now you're the shadow I'm free of
I told the stars of my despair
Their silence answered
But you weren’t there
You took the glow
Left me to the dark
Still
I'll shine
Though you tore me apart
I'm a constellation torn apart
Tattooed pain in an aching heart
You kissed the air and called it love
Now you're the shadow I'm free of
