The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Shooting Star
[Verse 1]
You came in like a shooting star
Bringing light into my dark
Showing me a better way
I thought I'd given up on love
I thought I'd given up on trust
Oh, and it was sorrowing then
So I pushed you away
[Chorus]
But you wouldn't let me drain
I was down at the bottom of the bottle so long
I couldn't get helped
You came to me and showed me that everything could be okay
I needed someone to love me that dies in the same way
[Verse 2]
I really don't deserve your arm
My sweet Angel, oh
You're the one I have to thank
There's a darkness inside of me
Most of you will not see
Yeah, and somehow she decided to stay
Now I'm forever changed
[Chorus]
But you wouldn't let me drain
I was down at the bottom of the bottle so long
I couldn't get helped
You came to me and showed me that everything could be okay
I needed someone to love me that dies in the same way
[Bridge]
Oh, I'm not afraid to die
But I'm afraid of you waking up tomorrow saying 'we are through'
Now that I'm finally clean
God sent me an angel to fix these broken wings
God sent me an angel, but I fell in love with her
[Chorus]
You wouldn't let me drown, no
I was down at the bottom of the bottle so long
I couldn't get helped
You came to me and showed me that everything could be ok
I needed someone to love me that dies in the same way
