  • Rain keeps beating on the rooftop, muddying the glass
    But, God, I love the sound of heaven
    Sat cross-legged on the carpet
    Listening to vinyl, trying to ignore the weather

    This week was heavy, I buckled under all the weight
    What can you do but pray?
    And count your blessings, it wasn't any other way
    Don't leave it up to fate

    Fighting the tide, but the waves, they will part
    Light up the night, we were made to be stars
    But it burns like hell to be Vega

    Clouds keep forming over this house
    Blocking out the sun, I'm tryna keep it all together
    One door closes then one opens, gotta keep the focus
    If we'll believe, then she'll get better

    The days are long but they pass within an instant, babe
    It is the strangest thing
    I'll count my blessings the day I see you smile again
    This war, we've got to win

    Keep it inside, don't let no one see your heart
    No one can judge, we're the same in the dark
    Fighting the tide, but the waves, they will part
    Light up the night, we were made to be stars
    But it burns like hell to be Vega

    Same problems, different options
    Pain comes at a cost, but we've got this
    Need respite, bleed time dry
    She'll be fine, she'll be fine
    Same problems, different options
    Pain comes at a cost, but we've got this
    Need respite, bleed time dry
    She'll be fine, she'll be fine

    Rain keeps beating on the rooftop, worrying to death
    But I guess this is human nature
    We are meant to shine like stars, but
    That don't mean it don't burn like hell to be Vega Writer/s: Aaron Brooking Dessner, Edward Christopher Sheeran
