[Intro]
I forgot this feeling, I forgot what real meant
Build me up to break me down
Looked into the fire, found my own desires
Will I ever make it out?
[Verse 1]
Can't be myself around anyone else (No)
I need to escape your deranged little hell (No)
Diamond in the rough, I'm breaking the spell (Ayy)
Maybe one day I will choose for myself (Ayy)
They say that money can buy everything
But loneliness with it just shelters the pain
Will I be okay?
[Verse 2]
Maybе one day I'll be great
How could you forgеt my name?
Counting stars won't take you far
When you can't choose who you are
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe one day I'll be great
I won't make your same mistakes
And you can't change me, I won't break
I'll tell myself, "I'll be okay"
I'll tell myself, "I'll be okay"
I won't make your same mistakes
[Chorus]
Tell myself, "I'll be okay"
I won't make your same mistakes
Maybe one day I'll be great
I won't let you forget my name
Counting stars won't take you far
When you can't choose who you are
[Verse 2]
Can't stop chasing everything that doesn't want me
I'm an escapist, and the night sky's my company
Your words abrasive, too invasive, won't let you control me
This isn't a game, I'm not just a pawn in one of your stories
Am I crazy? I'm insane
Found myself lost out in space
Maybe I'm the one to blame
No, you'll never change me
This is my story
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe one day I'll be great
I won't let you forget my name
Count those stars, they'll take you far
When you can choose who you are
[Chorus]
Tell myself, "I'll be okay"
I won't make your same mistakes
Maybe one day I'll be great
I won't let you forget my name
Counting stars won't take you far
When you can't choose who you are
[Bridge]
You can't change me, I won't break
Tell myself, "I'll be okay"
I won't make your same mistakes!
[Chorus]
Tell myself, "I'll be okay"
I won't make your same mistakes
Maybe one day I'll be great
I won't let you forget my name
Count those stars, they'll take you far
When you can choose who you are
