Rewrite the Stars - Jess and Gabriel

You were walking in while I was walking out I know I should be bulletproof by now But I took one to the heart The second I saw your face How's your dad? How's your brother and how's your mom? You were talking like it didn't hurt you at all Said it was nice catching up But I wanted to say How are you better than you've ever been? How are you not dying just a little bit? I'm just trying to figure out How are you so happy now? How are you going out and having fun? How are you, oh, how are you not still in love? But I bit my tongue and just smiled Said, "I'm good, that is been a while, how are you?" It was just a coping mechanism Acting fine and like my stomach wasn't upside down Like my world has been Since you haven't been in it (mhm) And I wish you knew how bad it hurt to lie Looking at you looking in my eyes If the roles were reversed I'd be the first to say How are you better than you've ever been? How are you not dying just a little bit? I'm just trying to figure out How are you so happy now? How are you going out and having fun? How are you, oh, how are you not still in love? But I bit my tongue and just smiled Said, "I'm good, that is been a while, how are you?" How are you not waking up Every night like I do? I'm nowhere close to over us So baby, how are you? How are you better than you've ever been? How are you not dying just a little bit? I'm just trying to figure out How are you so happy now? How are you going out and having fun? How are you, oh, how are you not still in love? But I bit my tongue and just smiled Said, "I'm good, that is been a while, how are you?" Mhm How are you? Said, "I'm good, that is been a while, how are you?"

To leave from this tale follow closely ahead Prepare to exist by the living & dead Too slow or too kind or too wary of those too at ease Past all the buried impressions of then Sullen drawn eyes and expressions to mend Continued through mirrors left broken to sing and be heard Through when it seems all the senses are lost to absurd So the part where we are Trapped in active depart In the fate of the stars No, not one who we are No control; pumping heart Button pressed; mind in art Mind control Mind restart To leave from the present with no source of sound They laugh because silence is never around Ignored and forgotten the past may continue to breathe Feared not a rest by this desolate friend Whose patience revealed what intent comes to send With a stare at a hole in the world comes a lust to be high Above all the dark nested clouds that keep guard of the sky So the part where we are Trapped in active depart In the fate of the stars No, not one who we are No control; pumping heart Button pressed; mind in art Mind control Mind restart Step onto the ferris wheel Round for day & night Lost in what's forever more Complacent in its reasons for Give and take Sleep and wake and Pray for day and might to come Again we see there's certainty in What we feel and what we've heard Again we see there's certainty in Expectations all the same

I was looking for a change of scene You were looking at a magazine It was red carpets and limousines And the grass seemed so much greener All we wanted was to get there fast So, we packed up everything we had Runnin' on hope and a tank of gas Like dreams ain't just for dreamers We couldn't wait to leave that life behind Trying to find salvation in that city limit sign And one of those early nights When the stars come out Oh, the stars come out and shine And they burn so bright They drown the downtown lights When the stars come out Oh, when the stars come out Everybody's, somebody, someday Everybody's got a part to play Everybody's tryin' to find a way To say, what needs saying Everybody's got a friend of a friend Somebody that can get you in Begging angels for a sin In the game that we're all playin' You and I, we're gamblers Sorting cards that we can't see And I'm betting on you and You're betting on me One of those early nights When the stars came out Oh, the stars come out and shine And they burn so bright They drown the downtown lights When the stars come out Oh, when the stars come out Down on the freeway The sun is out of sight And I got a feelin' Tonight might be the night Yeah, tonight might be the night One of those early nights When the stars come out Oh, the stars come out and shine And they burn so bright They drown the downtown lights When the stars come out Oh, when the stars come out When the stars come out Oh, whoa When the stars come out

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع

You promised a lifetime, but left in a moment I wonder if you even think about me Throw me a lifeline because I'm barely floating Stranded and broken You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away Just to let me go Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo You look like an angel Thought I was in heaven But I'm just falling without you with me I thought I was able to learn from my lessons Was trying my best but You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo
