Lyrics

Summer night, city lights, me and my girls outside
You walk by, say hi, tell me you like my smile
Boy, you got that vibe, soft words, sweet charm
Take my number, touch my hand, mean me no harm
Phone calls after midnight, giggles on the line
Feels like we're written in the stars, perfectly aligned
But something in your voice feels darker than the sky
Why you shining that bright? How your words so right?
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder who you are
Up above the world so high
Like a truth behind your eyes
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
I just wonder who you are
You bring me flowers every week, never miss a beat
Say you love the way I laugh, how my scent is so sweet
But perfect feels too perfect, like a mask about to crack
My friends say that I'm lucky, tell me I should just relax
But you disappear at random, say you're working late again
Come home smell of copper, scrubbing secrets from your skin
And every time I ask, your smile sharpens just a hair
I can feel the shadows rising, hear the warning whispered there
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
But a darkness dims your shine
Think I'm learning who you are
Twinkle, little star
Think I'm learning what you are
Up above the world so high
But a darkness dims your shine
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Think I'm learning who you are
I come by unannounced one night, hoping that we could talk
Your front door cracked a slight, so I slipped inside the dark
Saw a silver box half open, lying just atop your bed
Inside were jewels, a lock of hair, and a ribbon stained in red
Pictures of women you used to know, or so you said
But the photos out of focus, all their faces circled red
My heart rings like a warning bell, my instincts screaming loud
Girl, find a reason, get back out that door
Leave now, don't turn around
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
Now I know just what you are
You been hiding in plain sight
Collecting souls throughout the night
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
The brighter the shine, the darker the shade
I knew something was off, a game being played
Pretend not to know, but wish I had left
Regretting each step with each fading breath
Twinkle
Twinkle
Little star
Hope you know
You've gone
Too
Far
This isn't the end
This isn't the end
