Dying Star Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Little empires that you make
See them and despair
There's nothing time won't take
All the biggest, baddest dreams of billionaires
It's all dog meat and dancing bears

[Chorus]
And I'm burning up, I'm flaming out
Like a dying star
(La-la, la-la)
Bitter words in the night (In the night)
In the telephone light (La, la, la, la-la)
And I wanted you (I wanted you) to believe in how real this used to seem (Oh)
And not just flaming out
Like a dying star (Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
Now watch a real man ruminate (La, la-la, la-la, la)
I threw my ring into the reeds along the lake (La, la-la, la-la, la)
And took a picture from the car (From the car)
It's quite a feeling when you don't know who you are
But it's my life, I must be the star And I wonder now (I wonder now)
If this is suffering I could monetize (Mm-mm-hmm)
My bitter content in the night (La, la)
In the telephone light
And I wanted you just to believe in how real this used to seem
And not just flaming out like a dying star

[Chorus]
And I'm burning up (I'm burning up), I'm flaming out (I'm flaming out)
Like a dying star (La, la-la, la-la, la)
Bitter words in the night (La, la)
In the telephone light (La, la, la, la-la)
And I wanted you (I wanted you) to believe in how real this used to seem (Oh)
And not just flaming out
Like a dying star

[Outro]
And not just flaming out (Little empires that you make)
Like a dying star (Watch a real man ruminate)
And not just flaming out
Like a dying star
