Dimming Stars (feat. justrainysunshines)

A quiet night
Dimming stars in the sky
Playing keys
In this cold, empty room
A song for two
Now it's just for one
Just like half a moon

We used to play along
To our favourite chords
But now we are in discord
We poured our hearts without care
The secrets we used to share
Now it's as if we don't care
We made up most of our days
Shops, cafes and study dates
But long gone are those days
Though I've tried to reach you
Things don't feel the same
You feel so distant now

How did things end up this way?
We used to text each other every day
Late night chats, at 2 a.m.
We went from friends to acquaintances to strangers
Wondering if you still care
Because you haven't tried to call me since then

Under the covers
A faint blue light
Fills my eyes once again

Tonight's the night this will change
It takes a 'How have you been?'
And we'll be just like back then
I'm just a button away
But my thoughts lead me astray
What if you've nothing to say?
What if you've been better since
I'm not around and what if
This ruins everything?
The stars are numb to such nights
Desensitised, unsurprised
Over my sorry state

How did things end up this way?
I'd never hesitate back in those days
Late night chats, at 2 a.m.
We went from friends to acquaintances to strangers
One more night passes by
As I stop myself from calling you again

They say time can heal everything
(But is that really the truth?)
Why can't we get over ourselves?
(How many nights will it take?)
We used to shoot for the moon
But now even the stars
They seem so unaligned and afar

How did things end up this way?
(End up this way)
The stars won't let these memories fade away
(The memories stay)
Late night chats, at 2 a.m
We went from friends to acquaintances to strangers
Let our nights come to rest
Have our half a cadence find a whole again
