On and off like a soldier
With my head on your shoulder (with each breath I feel colder)
With the news they sent me I sank
Thought you beat this disease
Without falling to your knees
With the news you gave me
You'd ranked
And tried so hard to take in this morning air
But I can't
When you reach for stars you get cold
When you reach for stars do you get cold
(Get cold)
When you reach for the stars you gamble
I've been trying real hard
All dressed up in your fathers suspenders
Surrounded by all the wake attenders and
You ought to feel consoled
And I tried so hard to thank them with some despair
But I can't
When you reach for stars you get cold
When you reach for stars do you get cold
When you reach for the stars you gamble
I've been trying real hard
The pain can only go so far
When you reach for stars do you get cold
And it hurts
And it hurts
No self worth
No self worth
And the weeks carry on
Without your two cents to spare
F*ck it
No self worth
No self worth
And the years carry on
Without your two cents to share
I feel hurt
When you reach for the starts do you get cold
When I saw our last name on that tombstone
Was the moment that I started to feel a bit grown
All the times you tried to convince me otherwise
You left from my life. You lied. Then you died.
When you reach for the starts do you get cold
