I've watched a star die, brilliant spark of light to be
Colored in by the big, black empty
In the grand scheme, it had faded long ago
Crossed space at light speed, a message from a ghost
You can't unsee something like that
I'm lying fetal in my bed
It's only 5:49pm
Begging sleep to save me from it, yeah
I came here to tell you something I've been meaning to say
Yeah, it's been on loop, running heavy through my brain
Is it foolish to hope things don't have to change?
'Cause I've got bad news, I love you that way
And I know what happens next
Say you love me as a friend
That's about what I'd expect
We're adults, I'll get over it, yeah
Warm fingers get cold, watch it unfold in retrospect
New crushes get old, trying hard not to regret
What if I played my cards right? That's the wrong goose to chase down
Hindsight is hindsight, those things can't be changed now
