"Supernova" lyrics

"Supernova"

You're legal, but you shine like something new
And this whole world could fall in love with you
But don't think their smiles are always kind
Veiled tricks are perfectly timed
They talk love and aim for you
Till they make you feel like you're giving
When really they're just stealing
All the things you don't know you own yet, but

Only you stand in your way
It's only you, you never please

Break like a supernova, a supernova, a supernova, a supernova
A supernova, a supernova, a supernova, a supernova
Just take care

You're young, but you don't look fresh anymore
Find yourself washed up on your own shore
So at 19 you move away for a while
Fear head-on was never your style
All you want to know is what you want for sure
But you can't bear the thought of living with a racing pulse

Only you can make it real
It's only you that tears it down

Break like a supernova, a supernova, a supernova, a supernova
A supernova, a supernova, a supernova, a supernova
Just take care

And when they ask if you'll come home
You tell them "the greatest dreams are chased alone"
You could never draw a star on to a page, but...
You know what you could be on the right stage
Crossing goals off your endless list
But you refuse to believe you might exist

Only you can make it real
It's only you that tears it down

Break like a supernova, a supernova, a supernova, a supernova
A supernova, a supernova, a supernova, a supernova
Just take care
