Trying to breathe
trying way to hard
saying things I shouldn't
but are
The words I'm trying to say
aren't coming out
all I wanna do is scream and shout

Chorus:
How I wish I was a star
wondering how far, I would have to go
to make this come true
If dying means I can become
what I dream, Then do it
I'm already screaming

Screaming in a room full of people
and no one's looking up
Drowning with no one there to save me
this breathing thing is hard to do
and it's not working out.
it's definitely not working out

How I wish I was a star
wondering how far, I would have to go
to make this come true
if dying means I can become
what I dream, the do it
I'm already screaming

I want to be a star
I feel like I'm drowning
and I'm hoping this will
help me escape this place
where I'm never good enough
never pretty enough
Oh how I wish I was a star
