​staring at the moon Lyrics by kennedyxoxo

miserable at best

2019

[Verse 1]
And I know that I've done wrong
And I wish that we could go back to the way it was in high school
Girl, I'm not that strong
And I know you're doing fine, baby, I ain't nothing like you
But I guess that life goes on
Never mind, I take it back, girl, I think I really need you
'Cause every goddamn song
Is a vision from the past getting smaller in the rearview

[Verse 2]
Now I'm always blowing smoke into the sky
I wish I could shut my eyes 'cause I never wanna wake up
I could tell you felt that something wasn't right
So you didn't help me cry, say I'm ruining your makeup
I remember I was lying on my roof
Always staring at the moon knowing you can see the same one
Now I'm always stuck alone inside my room
But it feels like it's a tomb 'cause it's where I finally gave up
I stay awake like every night as I scream into the mic
Saying nothing ever goes how it's supposed to
I don't think that that's a lie 'cause it happens every time
I've lost everyone I've ever gotten close to

[Chorus]
It's a whole new world that I'll show you
Brand new life for you to come home to
I hope it's worth what we go through
I hope it's worth what we go through
It's a whole new world that I'll show you
Brand new life for you to come home to
I hope it's worth what we go through
I hope it's worth what we go through

[Verse 1]
And I know that I've done wrong
And I wish that we could go back to the way it was in high school
Girl, I'm not that strong
And I know you're doing fine, baby, I ain't nothing like you
But I guess that life goes on
Never mind, I take it back, girl, I think I really need you
'Cause every goddamn song
Is a vision from the past getting smaller in the rearview

[Verse 2]
Now I'm always blowing smoke into the sky
I wish I could shut my eyes 'cause I never wanna wake up
I could tell you felt that something wasn't right
So you didn't help me cry, say I'm ruining your makeup
I remember I was lying on my roof
Always staring at the moon knowing you can see the same one
Now I'm always stuck alone inside my room
But it feels like it's a tomb 'cause it's where I finally gave up

[Chorus]
It's a whole new world that I'll show you
Brand new life for you to come home to
I hope it's worth what we go through
I hope it's worth what we go through
It's a whole new world that I'll show you
Brand new life for you to come home to
I hope it's worth what we go through
I hope it's worth what we go through
