Lyrics
The furthest star in the sky,
Well that's the one that passed me by.
I tried to wish upon that star,
It didn't get me very far.
It fell on empty ears,
It fell on empty hearts.
And my dreams,
They fell apart.
I'm always wishing
I was someone else,
I'm always hoping
I can sell myself
But I'll be free for what I believe
And I won't sell my soul just to achieve my goal.
And I've been holding back the tears,
Dreaming all these years.
And I sing from the heart if you'll listen to me,
Everything I do is what I believe.
The lights went out across the world
And your house of cards came tumbling down
'cause nothing stays and noting sticks
When you're rolling with the lunatics.
But my star in the darkest sky
Twinkles and watches while the other stars
Die upon your empty ears and empty hearts.
I'm always wishing
I was someone else,
But I've given up the ghosts,
I will never sell myself.
But I'll be free for what I believe
And I won't sell my soul just to achieve my goal.
And I've been holding back the tears,
Dreaming all these years.
And I sing from the heart if you'll listen to me,
Everything I do is what I believe.
The furthest star in the sky,
Well that's the one that passed me by.
I tried to wish upon that star,
It didn't get me very far.
