"Stars" is the second track on Switchfoot's fifth album, Nothing Is Sound.

Lyrics
Maybe I’ve been the problem Maybe I’m the one to blame But even when I turn it off and blame myself The outcome feels the same I’ve been thinking maybe I’ve been partly cloudy Maybe I’m the chance of rain And maybe I’m overcast And maybe all my luck’s washed down the drain

I’ve been thinking about everyone Everyone, you look so lonely

But when I look at the stars When I look at the stars When I look at the stars I see someone else When I look at the stars, the stars I feel like myself

Stars looking at a planet watching entropy and pain And maybe start to wonder how The chaos in our lives could pass as sane I’ve been thinking about the meaning of resistance Of a hope beyond my own And suddenly the infinite and penitent Began to look like home

I’ve been thinking about everyone everyone, you look so empty

Everyone everyone we feel so lonely Everyone, everyone we feel so empty When I look at the stars When I look at the stars When I look at the stars I feel like myself When I look at the stars The stars I see someone
