Stars Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So what's a Capricorn to do about this world that he was born into?
Still feel like I got more to prove
Should I have a couple kids
Go to work all day
Then pour a double gin
Be only worth my pay?
'Cause I'm broke and barely famous
Partying with people that don't know what my name is
But they wanna buy my shots
And I'm like why not?
'Cause I can't afford them anyway
Now I'm traveling the world
With some people I looked up to when I really was a no one
And I just wanna see my girl
But she's alone at home and I could really use a cold one
I still don't feel at place
I'm the weird guy at the party sitting awkward in the corner
And they can see it on my face
So let me slide up outta here and hit the bar to place my order

[Chorus]
I find myself in situations
That make me feel I'm almost famous
They want my smile but I can't fake it
Like "here we are, now entertain us"
I played shows on sixty stages
Then I came home and can't make payments
They want my smile, but I can't fake it
Like "here we are, now entertain us" And all I see is stars, in everybody else
And all I see is stars, in everybody but myself

[Verse 2]
'Cause look, this little Capricorn has always been inadequate
You can go ahead and laugh at it
I was the new kid at my middle school
Awkward and afraid of all the roles I'm trying to fit into
And nothing's really changed
In fact it's getting worse I feel it digging even deeper
I always felt strange
Missing school because I'm anxious, lying to my teachers
Depression is a bitch
Hated everyone around me 'cause they always seemed perfect
And I was just a little kid
Now I'm on my way to thirty and I still feel worthless

[Chorus]
I find myself in situations
That make me feel I'm almost famous
They want my smile but I can't fake it
Like "here we are, now entertain us"
I played shows on sixty stages
Then I came home and can't make payments
They want my smile, but I can't fake it
Like "here we are, now entertain us"
And all I see is stars, in everybody else
And all I see is stars, in everybody but myself
