lyrics

I wanna be a rockstar
I wanna be a ghost
I wanna start over

I wanna be a shadow
I wanna have the most
I wanna be sober

And I've been thinking about a revolution
But I've been drinking gasoline and breathing out pollution
And singing a song about the evolution of my soul

And the galaxies are constantly in motion
Should I give up everything and sink into devotion
I'm restless and I don't know how to become whole

I lose myself to my own scars
I find the truth in dying stars
And you say it's ordinary and you say it isn't scary but I bet you couldn't carry
The weight of my heart
The weight of my heart

I wanna be a ruler
I wanna be a stone
I wanna drink poison

I wanna be the sunlight
I wanna be alone
I wanna let the noise in

And it's one foot in front of the other
Don't wanna be your therapist, don't wanna be a mother
And every road in front of me is gonna lead to suffering

And yeah, I know I gotta sit in silence
But they tell me that I'm crazy and they tell me that I'm violent
And some other voice is calling me to fall into the sky and sing

I lose myself to my own scars
I find the truth in dying stars
And you say it's ordinary and you say it isn't scary but I bet you couldn't carry
The weight of my heart
The weight of my heart

I lose myself to my own scars
I find the truth in dying stars
And you say it's ordinary and you say it isn't scary but I bet you couldn't carry
The weight of my heart
The weight of my heart
