Lyrics
[build up]
(close your eyes)
[intro]
The day ends in tears
I watch myself slowly disappear
Into a nightmare of fear
It's my own square
Where I can sit down and think
(why I care)
About these people that never shared
their thoughts with me...
[pause]
[chorus]
Every time I see a falling star
I close my eyes, and wish that it takes me far away
Even though my people might say that I've chosen the wrong way.
Then I open them again
And sure I realize where I am (where I am)
[verse 1]
So, after 10 years
It still won't disappear
My hope for people to stop stare
and take care
(yeah, I swear)
I'll never run away from my dream
If I'm gonna be king I need a queen
(what it seems like, what it feels like)
I don't have a future sight and I might need a light to walk through the dark cave
I will always be brave
I will always behave
And I may make a mistake
And fall down in the mysterious lake
I got what it takes
I've been there before
Got a lot in store
Still this is not what I'm wishing for
[chorus]
Every time I see a falling star
I close my eyes, and wish that it takes me far away
Even though my people might say that I've chosen the wrong way
Then I open them again
And sure I realize where I am (where I am)
[verse 2]
When I was young I said to myself
I'll never do wrong
Still my mother and father didn't get along
My dream pushed me to stay strong
What a task, always hide my feelings behind a mask
When people ask I get stressed
'Cause I know I'm lying when I tell them
I'm doing great
Leave it to my fate
I thought I could wait
Every night stars are flying into the open gate
While I'm sitting close to my window and growing hate
[chorus]
Every time I see a falling star
I close my eyes, and wish that it takes me far away
Even though my people might say that I've chosen the wrong way
Then I open them again
And sure I realize where I am (where I am)
[verse 3]
I thought I never could be lonely
Me as a child running around
With my feet on the ground
Never scared of making any sound (never walked with my head down)
Didn't know anything about these days
Can't look in the mirror to see my own face
It's not a case, it's a chase
A race to become the one (they'll remember)
[outro]
(fallin')
(forever fallin')
[end]
