lyrics

I've heard that the stars are out tonight
and they glitter like diamonds in clay
They say its a beautiful evening
An end to a beautiful day
But I know the stars are dead inside
and the light they emit isn't real
The stars may as well disappear

There used to be constellations
like pictures drawn in the light
But they were erased in a heartbeat
when you walked off into the night
Let them fall from the sky like broken fireflies
I won't shed a single tear when they're gone
because the stars may as well disappear
Because the stars may as well disappear

and never return
Let the night swallow me completely
I never wanna see them again

Because the stars may as well disappear
Disappear
Disappear
