The Stars Cry Tonight

Verse 1

I trace your name across the dark

With fingers cold and paper-thin

The night is wide, the silence sharp

And every star feels like a sin

They used to spell out you and me

Now they just burn indifferently

Pre-Chorus

I whisper wishes to the void

But heaven never makes a sound

The light I see is years destroyed

Already dead before it’s found

Chorus

Oh, the stars are crying tonight

Falling slow like silver rain

I’m dancing in their dying light

Calling out your name in vain

They fade, they fade, they fade away

Just like the love you couldn’t stay

Under these fading constellations

I’m lost… I’m lost…

Verse 2

The Milky Way feels counterfeit

A hollow glitter in the black

I count the hours since you left

Each one a needle in my back

I play our song on broken strings

While Orion forgets my wings

Pre-Chorus

The moon won’t offer me her glow

She turns her face and looks away

I’m just a girl the cosmos knows

Will disappear before the day

Chorus

Oh, the stars are crying tonight

Falling slow like silver rain

I’m dancing in their dying light

Calling out your name in vain

They fade, they fade, they fade away

Just like the love you couldn’t stay

Under these fading constellations

I’m lost… I’m lost…

Bridge

If I could pull one star down low

And hold it burning in my hands

Would it remember how we glowed?

Or just dissolve like shifting sand

I’d trade the whole damn universe

To feel your heartbeat one more time

But even light can’t reverse

This endless, empty pantomime

Chorus

Oh, the stars are crying tonight

Every sparkle cuts like glass

I keep believing you’ll ignite

And come back through the cold, cold vast

They fade, they fade, they fade away

Taking pieces of me as they stray

Under these fading constellations

I’m lost…

I’m lost without you…

Outro

Twinkle, twinkle… little lie

How I wonder… why you died…

In the sky… so far from me…

Set me free… or let me be…
