When he was a young boy
He put the stars on the wall
And he had the same dream everyday
He had the same dream every night
A kind little girl turns herself to a big monster
And he runs away from it in a rusty factory

In the evening he just starts acting up in tears
The sound of the clock a shot to the head
But he wasn't smoking joints

Before long summer time was gone
And fall comes
And winter time was gone again
And he has grown up
Cheap stars still shine on the wall of his room
I know you better
Borrowing someone's worn-out words
Smiling when you are sad
All you could do was defend yourself
Cheap stars still shine on the wall of his room
I know you better
