She had a smile that could light up the room in seconds 
 I got lost in her blue eyes in conversation 
 And she told me her dreams and she trusted in me for hours 
 I held her hand and whispered away my secrets 
    Nothing's like it seems, it's all a make believe 
 And no one's really listening 
 Too blinded by the glare to ever stop and care 
 Yeah, no one's really there when you need them 
 So hold on to who you are 
 'cause nothing's like it seems, it's all a make believe 
 Just falling stars on silver screens   
 She had a smile that could light up the room in seconds 
 With tears after midnight, she told me she lost direction 
 While the world was asleep, she was up telling me it was over 
 I held her tight for a moment and i was speechless   
 Nothing's like it seems, it's all a make believe 
 And no one's really listening 
 Too blinded by the glare to ever stop and care 
 Yeah, no one's really there when you need them 
 So hold on to who you are 
 'cause nothing's like it seems, it's all a make believe 
 Just falling stars on silver screens   
 Last thing i heard, she became a star 
 Followed her dream, she followed her heart 
 She left a message in the middle of july 
 Said you were right and i realized   
 Nothing's like it seems, it's all a make believe 
 And no one's really listening 
 Too blinded by the glare to ever stop and care 
 Yeah, no one's really there when you need them   
 So blinded by the glare to ever stop and care 
 Yeah, no one's really there when you need them 
 So hold on to who you are 
 'cause nothing's like it seems, it's all a make believe 
 Just falling stars on silver screens
