Lyrics

[Verse 1]

One million years ago, a star exploded somewhere

Now's how long it took to see the light

Maybe you and me will never reach the greatest heights, but

In a million years, we'll burn that bright

[PreChorus]

You're gonna tell me I'm a pessimist

Well, maybe I've just come to terms with what life is

Isn't any fun trying to keep up with the Joneses

Maybe this is all we'll ever be

[Chorus]

Maybe we're at the edge of the light

Just like that astrologer told us, oh

Maybe we're at the end of our life

Dying stars, supernovas

[PostChorus]

Supernovas

Supernovas

[Verse 2]

For thirty years, I've tried to write a song I thought might matter

I sing it as I put my son to bed, oh

He don't want my song, "Sing the one you sang about the star

I prefer that one instead"

That little children's song can make me feel so obsolete

Try to run to please my son, I cannot move my feet

I call out in the darkness, no one can hear

My time is still a million years away

[Chorus]

Maybe we're at the edge of the light

Just like that astrologer told us, oh

Maybe we're at the end of our life

Dying stars, supernovas

[PostChorus]

Supernovas

Supernovas

[Bridge]

Are we there yet? Oh

Are we there yet? Oh

Are we there yet? Oh

Are we there yet?

Or is this all it's ever gonna be?

I stare into the night sky, million-year-old light

Somehow it makes me feel everything's gonna be alright

I stare into the night sky, million-year-old light

Somehow it makes me feel everything's gonna be alright

[Chorus]

Maybe we're at the edge of the light

Just like that astrologer told us, oh

Maybe we're at the end of our life

Dying stars, oh, supernovas

[Outro]

(Just wanna be with you, I just wanna be with you)

(Just wanna be with you, even if it's all we do)

Supernovas (Just wanna be with you, I just wanna be with you)

Supernovas (Just wanna be with you, even if it's all we do)
