Starlight
Unlike Pluto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Taking all the starlight from me now
Turning all my spotlight
Into Dark nights
Stolen from me now
Taking all my starlight

Taking all the starlight from me now
Turning all my spotlight
Into Dark nights
Stolen from me now
Turning all my starlight
Into dark nights

I don't wanna heart attack
I fear the worst
Is coming down, down on me (Is catching up to me)
I can't take this on my chest
I know I'm not my best
Rock bottom doesn't pay rent

I can't go and throw this all away
A stain on my name
not turning away
Thought you were invested into me
A fool's paradise
Look who paid the price

Oh No no, hey
Oh no no, hey
Oh now my Starlight starts to fade
Oh No no, hey
Oh no no, hey
OH no no Like a thief you're

Taking all the starlight from me now
Turning all my spotlight
Into Dark nights
Stolen from me now
Turning all my starlight
Into dark nights

Dreams are nightmares in a haunted mind
I was left behind
Can't wake my cloudy eyes
Oh how the times have changed
As the seconds tick away
My life becomes detained

I can't go and throw this all away
A stain on my name
not turning away
Thought you were invested into me
A fool's paradise
Look who paid the price

Oh No no, hey
Oh no no, hey
Oh now my Starlight starts to fade
Oh No no, hey
Oh no no, hey
OH no no Like a thief you're

Taking all the starlight from me now
Turning all my spotlight
Into Dark nights
Stolen from me now
Turning all my starlight
Into dark nights

Dreams are nightmares in a haunted mind
I was left behind
Can't wake my cloudy eyes
Oh how the times have changed
As the seconds tick away
My life becomes detained

You can't change a mind that's made
A Bruise won't fade
I know you'll pray that I'll just go away,
I'll go away
Maybe I'll just go away
I'm gone today

Taking all the starlight from me now
Turning all my spotlight
Into Dark nights
Stolen from me now




Turning all my starlight
Into dark nights

"I can’t go and throw this all away,
A stain on my name,
not turning away,
Thought you were invested into me,
A fool's paradise,
Look who paid the price"




This hits home so damn much ahah, I lived in a fools paradise for 8 years and ended up paying the price. Giving my everything for someone who was not invested as much as they said they were.
Talking about marrige and all, then I get kicked out for no real reason. I still wonder how people fight, beat each toher up, call each other names but still stay together. Meanwhile I gave everything for nothing haha
