im up at midnight staring at orions belt
im naming all the constellations i know and
wishing i knew more
light pollution is suffocating me and
i can count the stars in the sky
i wish i knew what the sky was supposed to look like

I told you orion was my favorite constellation
i hate to break it to you but that's a lie
my favorite constellation will always be
you and I
