Snorting Stardust

By BeautifullyRuined

I crushed the stars in my hand
and laughed at the massacre of wishes
I wanted to be that HIGH
snorting stardust like cocaine
making a wish everytime i hit a line

they didnt come true
as the sky turned black i cried for you
nothing left but the moon
i would destroy that to
but i always loved the way
it reflected in your eyes
shining so bright
it made me blind

snorting another line
waiting for the night to die
it was always our time
now i`m spending it alone
wishing that somehow i could die with it
but as i said wishes are bullshit
and when the sun rises
i`ll still be sitting here

...wishing you were too.
