Buy the Stars

You bought a star in the sky tonight Because your life is dark and it needs some light You named it after me, but I'm not yours to keep Because you'll never see, that the stars are free Oh, we don't own our heavens now We only own our hell And if you don't know that by now Then you don't know me that well All my life I've been so lonely All in the name of being holy And still, you'd like to think you know me You keep buyin' stars And you could buy up all of the stars But it wouldn't change who you are You're still living life in the dark It's just who you are, it's just who you are You bought a star in the sky tonight And in your man-made dark The light inside you died Oh, we don't own our heavens now We only own our hell And if you don't know that by now Then you don't know me that well All my life I've been so lonely All in the name of being holy And still, you like to think you own me You keep buyin' stars And you could buy up all of the stars But it wouldn't change who you are You're still living life in the dark It's just who you are, it's just who you are Yeah, you know only how to own me You know only how to own me You're buying stars to shut out the light We come alone and alone we die And no matter how hard you try I'll always belong in the sky (You could buy up all of the stars It wouldn't change who you are You're still living life in the dark It's just who you are) And you could buy up all of the stars But it wouldn't change who you are You're still living life in the dark It's just who you are, it's just who you are It's who you are, it's who you are It's who you are, it's who you are It's who you are, it's who you are It's who you are, it's who you are --- Buy the Stars - MARINA
