Stars on the Ceiling

Coming to a bittersweet end
Been saving up my pennies for a long time
Jumping into a new beginning
Feet first, so I don't hit my head when I dive
Though seconds seem to slip away,
I still can't wait another day,
But I'd be lying if I said the change
Won't be strange

Oh, lying in bed, there won't be
A stranger feeling
Than looking up not seeing any
Stars on the ceiling
Made of plastic, plastic, plastic
Can't believe they lasted, that I lasted
But sleeping wrapped up in your arms every night?
I must be dreaming
Forever wishing somehow I could
Bottle the feeling
Made it happen, happen, happen
Overnight like magic, magic, magic

Headlights to direct me back home,
City noises writing me a soundtrack
Say goodbye to all you've ever known,
The fabric of my youth hanging on by a thread
I still have the same diary
I've held onto since I was three
Filled it with countless memories
I should read
When did I get so old
That I stopped putting on concerts
In my bedroom in the middle of the day?
Like somebody snapped their fingers
And the past became a vision
And the future stood before me center stage

Oh, lying in bed, there won't be
A stranger feeling
Than looking up not seeing any
Stars on the ceiling
Made of plastic, plastic, plastic
Can't believe they lasted, that I lasted
But sleeping wrapped up in your arms every night?
I must be dreaming
Forever wishing somehow I could
Bottle the feeling
Made it happen, happen, happen
Overnight like magic, magic, magic
