See the thing about hometowns People dying just to stick around But I was never good at settling down I'm just sipping this Manhattan And I'm thinking about your laughing And how everything can't stay And I don't believe in stars Say you show up on occasion Maybe the weekend we should meet Maybe it ain't in the cards Cause I don't believe in stars And I'm so far and I'm scared No one else can make you care Don't spare us the details See my life is an awkward phase My happiness don't translate Call me up when you feel the same Say you don't believe in stars Say you don't believe in stars I don't believe in stars At least not that kind The ones we look up to They don't need shining And we don't believe in stars That don't even try They just show up at night Don't even know it's dark Don't believe in stars
