Don't Believe in Stars - Trent Dabbs

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
