 ~VERSE~
Maybe  I've been the problem maybe I'm  the one to blame
 But even when I turn  it off and blame  myself the outcome  feels the same
 I've been thinking maybe I've  been partly cloudy maybe I'm  the chance of rain
 and maybe I'm overcast  and maybe  all my lucks  washed down the drain
 ~PRE-CHORUS~
 I've been thinking 'bout everyone everyone  you look so  lonely
 ~CHORUS~
 But when I look at the stars  when I look at the stars
 When I look at the stars  I see someone else
 When I look at the stars the stars
 I feel like myself
 ~INTERLUDE~ Play second half of Riff 2.
 ~VERSE 2~
Stars  looking at a planet watching entropy  and pain
 And maybe start to wonder  how the chaos  in our lives  could pass as sane
 I've been thinking 'bout the meaning  of Resistance of a hope  beyond my own
 And suddenly the infinite  and penitent  begin  to look like home
 ~PRE-CHORUS 2~
 I've been thinking 'bout everyone everyone  you look so  empty
 ~REPEAT CHORUS~
 ~REPEAT INTERLUDE~
 ~BRIDGE~
Stars
Stars
 ~PRE-CHORUS~
Everyone everyone  we feel so  lonely
 Everyone yeah everyone  we feel so  empty
 ~OUTRO-CHORUS~
When  I look at the stars when I look at the stars
 When I look at the  stars  I feel like myself (play second half of riff 2)
 When I look at the stars  the stars
 I see someone
 ~OUTRO~
 play riff 2 twice.
