Worum geht es in dem Text?
Der Songtext handelt von jemandem, der davon träumt, etwas Besseres zu sein, als das, was er momentan erreicht hat. Er versucht, alles Negativen hinter sich zu lassen und ein besseres Leben zu schaffen, anstatt nur für Geld zu arbeiten. Er erkennt, dass Hoffnung ein vier Buchstaben Wort ist und dass er, selbst wenn die Welt das Gegenteil von dem glaubt, was er tut, nur das Richtige tun muss. Durch die Dinge, die ihn töten, fühlt er sich lebendig und er wird, statt nach Geld zu streben, einfach die Sterne zählen.

Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I’ve been, I’ve been playing hard,
Sitting, no more counting dollars
We’ll be, we’ll be, counting stars
I feel the love and I feel it burn
Down this river, every turn
Hope is a four-letter word
Make that money, watch it burn
Oh, but I’m not that old
Young, but I’m not that bold
I don’t think the world is sold
I’m just doing what we’re told
I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I could lie, could lie, could lie
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I’ve been, I’ve been playing hard,
Sitting, no more counting dollars
We’ll be, counting stars
Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I’ve been, I’ve been playing hard,
Sitting, no more counting dollars
We’ll be, we’ll be, counting stars
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sing in the river
The lessons are learnt
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sing in the river
The lessons are learnt
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sing in the river
The lessons are learnt
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sing in the river
The lessons are learnt
Everything that kills me makes feel alive
Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I’ve been, I’ve been playing hard,
Sitting, no more counting dollars
We’ll be counting stars
Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I’ve been, I’ve been playing hard,
Sitting, no more counting dollars
We’ll be, we’ll be, counting stars
