You bought a star
In the sky tonight
Because your life is dark
And it needs some lightYou named it after me
But I'm not yours to keep
Because you'll never see
That the stars are freeOh, 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 wellAll my life, I've been so lonely
All in the name of being holy
Still, you'd like to think you know me
You keep buying starsAnd you could buy up all 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 areYou bought a star
In the sky tonight
And in your man-made dark
The light inside you diedOh, 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 wellAll my life, I've been so lonely
All in the name of being holy
And still, you'd like to think you own me
You keep buying starsAnd you could buy up all 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 areYeah, 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 skyAnd you could buy up all 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 areIt'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
