Broken Stars Lyrics

Shooting daggers at me
Letting it be known you're not impressed
I never fail at failing all your tests
Don't be so proud
'Cause you're still so scared to be alone
You can't change your mind!

You won't embrace this
But you accept it
You can't let go!

Broken stars
By a single shattered mirror
Seven years of trust
I know you'll never change for anyone
A gold heart never rusts!

My mind's made up!
And I'll know I'll do the right thing
Get up and stand tall!
My mind's made up!
Why am I scared, I won't be able
To get up when I fall!

We cast a single shadow for so long now
It's so hard to see the sun at all! (The sun at all!)
But you need light to see
The writing on the wall!

My mind's made up!
And I'll know I'll do the right thing
Get up and stand tall!
My mind's made up!
Why am I scared, I won't be able
To get up when I fall...

...into the hole I've made,
I brace myself alone.
I'll find the strength within myself
To climb out on my own. Own!

My mind's made up! (Made up!)
And I'll know I'll do the right thing
Get up and stand tall!
My mind's made up (Made up!)
Why am I scared, I won't be able
To get up when I fall!

These broken stars
Can be put back in the sky!
I can still feel your scars!
I won't, I won't let you die!
We won't, we won't fade away!
And now we will
Set this all ablaze!

there's a couple mistakes, let me point them out it's "a gold heart never rusts" instead of "i'll go hard, never lost"

and "and now we will set this all ablaze" instead of "right now right now see this on the glass"

sorry if i'm picky but i have the cd booklet right in front of me,

My guess is that the guy has made up his mind about leaving his wife after discovering shes been cheating on him.

"We cast a single shadow for so long now It's so hard to see the sun at all! (The sun at all!) But you need light to see The writing on the wall!"

He realizes that, once they became separated, its obvious to him, or he sees the "writing on the wall", that they were never really meant to be and they never got along very well in the first place, and its actually for the better.

My Interpretation

I think he wants to step up to her and end the relationship because he knows that she cheated on him...but he can't pull it together too. At the end of the song, he decides not to step up and just try to move on and deal with the relationship even though it still pains him.

idk, just my two cents.

Correction!

Broken stars By a single shattered mirror Seven years of trust I know you'll never change for anyone :: A gold heart never rusts :: My mind's made up!

I've seen it like this too

:: A cold heart never rusts ::

but that doesn't make sense, cause when you think about it GOLD doesn't rust. haha sorry, this was bothering me because every lyric website has something different from what the line actually is.
