Northstar

I’ve been tracing constellations made of constant concerns,

Trying to find direction in the lessons I never learned.

Every wish I whispered got lost in the air,

Now I talk to the ceiling, because no one’s ever there.

I keep pretending there’s a reason for the wreck I’ve become,

But it’s hard to find the light when you’re blinded by the sun.

I’ve got these stitches and scars, yeah, I’m falling apart,

Searching for a Northstar,

but the sky’s completely dark.

They say there's light up ahead, believe me...

I've traveled this far, i still can't find my Northstar.

I built my faith on fault lines and half-hearted prayers,

Said I’d leave my demons, but they’re still waiting there.

My compass spins wild, it never points home,

Guess even broken hearts need somewhere to roam.

I'm holding on with trembling hands,

To all my half baked plans

I’ve got these stitches and scars, yeah, I’m falling apart,

Searching for a Northstar,

but the sky’s completely dark.

They say there's light up ahead, believe me...

I've traveled this far, i still can't find my Northstar.

If every scar’s a map, then where should i start?

When the stars burned out, do they stay intact?

If I crash and burn, at least I’ll know,

I tried to find heaven but got lost in the undertow.

I’ve got these stitches and scars, yeah, I’m falling apart,

Searching for a Northstar,

but the sky’s completely dark.

They say there's light up ahead, believe me...

I've traveled this far, i still can't find my Northstar.
