VanderWaal, Grace - 12 Stars Lyrics






You drifted away, but she wanted to stay.
Even though she knows his feelings will never change.
She waits and she waits just to hear her name
and those three words that mean everything.

But deep down she's aware that that's something that'll never reach her ear.
And deep down she's aware that that's something she'll never live to hear.

So go ahead and kill me as long as he's safe.
And go ahead and shoot me as long as I can see his face when I'm gone.

She sees his face everyday.
And maybe one day he'll say, "I've always felt that way."

But deep down she's aware that that's something she'll never live to hear
And deep down she's aware that those words will never reach her ear

So go ahead and kill me as long as he's safe.
And go ahead and shoot me as long as I can see his face when I'm gone.

I forget about you over the weekend. Decided that I'm over it, but the second I see your face again it's like the match was re-lit [x2]

So go ahead and kill me as long as he's safe.
And go ahead and shoot me as long as I can see his face when I'm gone.

    Lpm amo esta canción con mi vida

    This probably won't be seen but in some interview she explains the title. It was supposed to be, I think, 6 Moons but she said there was already a song named that so she went with 12 Stars. And I think that 12 was because she was 12. She doesn't say what movie this is about but Hunger Games does kinda make sense. And this is just a feeling but I think it's never been released because of the line, "...go ahead and kill me..." With all the violence and killings going on I think this makes sense. (At least it does to me.)

  8. S.... P....

    This song is so beautiful

  9. M.... L....

    Why am I crying?

  10. F.... D....

  20. M.... ....

    Grace has one of those incredible rare voices. Anytime you hear her, you know it's grace. Many pop singers sound exactly the same, but grace shines through in a beautiful, magical way.

  21. _.... ....

    How can a 13 year old do this like what the heck

  22. A.... G....

    This song would fit perfectly for the Hunger Games.

  23. A.... S....

  57. E.... W....

    what book is this based on i need to know

  58. K.... S....

    This song is my life ❤️

  59. J.... I....

    What was this song about? I can't understand?

    J.... I....

    Oh dear child, this song is based off a movie and or song. I'm guessing my bet is Hunger Games. But the real explanation is to this song is about a girl who loves a boy very much but the boy doesn't feel that way towards her but she doesn't care. She loves him very much that she would take a bullet for him or kill herself to prove the love she has for him. She is very protective. Sort of like the protection Katniss has on Petah in the movie and in the book.

  60. m.... b....

    Can someone tell me the chords she used??!!??

  61. A.... S....

    she's extremely awesome, make this song with amazing lyric, and she's 12😐..... mind blowww

  62. T.... T....

    This song is my life

  63. S.... P....

    what exactly is this a ❤ triangle or what 😚😚😑😚😚🤔

  64. S.... L....

    I want her 😍 she's my number 1 idol. A great miracle. Ohh! GRACE! 😘😚💖

  65. i.... c....

    I dunno but this is me and Simon.

  66. v.... j....

    I listen to this so much

  67. P.... ....

    He'll never feel the same way I feel about him... he likes someone else. I will always like him, even if he's with another girl. He will always be in my heart, I'll never love another boy!

    P.... ....

    Pokeywokey123 AJ summary about how i feel about him

  68. S.... S....

    This sounds kinda like a Ruth b song :p nice work tho 👌👏👍👍👍

  69. S.... ....

    someone needs to make a video of how to play this on ukelele😍😍😍

  70. E.... P....

    THIS SONG ALWAYS MAKES ME CRY AND I DONT KNOW WHY

  71. M.... c....

    I hate when people fish for likes in the comment section....like if you agree

  72. V.... S....

    I accidentally skipped forward to the end, but it didn't sound like that because I skipped to a part where it was continuing with that verse.

  73. S.... ....

    Before I even heard this I wrote a very similar song. PS I wish she sang this in America's Got Talent.

    S.... ....

    YES!!!!!!

    S.... ....

    They wouldn't let her sing Gossip Girl, so I doubt they would have let her sing this.

    S.... ....

    Donna Mendez why didn’t they let her sing gossip girl?

  74. N.... a....

    Pretty sure Grace Vanderwaal is a musical genius

    N.... a....

    Sophie Lachapelle I just noticed that she reversed each time she sang the "reach her ear" and "something she'll never hear" parts. I don't know if that was intentional or by accident when she sang it, but that is a sign of true artistry when she changes it up like that. John Mayer does that a lot.

    N.... a....

    Noel St. John Agreed. John Mayer does it always but it doesn't matter as long it is good to hear

  75. H.... ....

    This reminds me of the fault in our stars

    H.... ....

    that is exactly what i was thinking

  76. L.... H....

    this girl can do some amazing things with a ukelele....maybe i should get one :D

  77. L.... H....

    i love this song... so much.

  78. S.... B....

    Please make an hour version!

  79. S.... B....

    This song is going to be at my wedding

    S.... B....

    Gamer Girlz just want to know why this song will be in your wedding?

    S.... B....

    Because it is amazing, lel.

  82. X.... ....

    I love this song so much 😭😍

  83. J.... H....

    love this onto!! you are such a fun thing to experience!!

  84. K.... N....

    I wonder what movie/book this song was composed off of

    K.... N....

    +Katherine Neufeld I think is new moon, twilight , watch the movie and compare with the song

    K.... N....

    Oh! That's probably it, actually.

    K.... N....

    +Katherine Neufeld or maybe Hunger Games series? That could be it actually, since this song can be compared to Katniss and Peter easily. But the problem is, is it really confirmed?

    K.... N....

    The Hunger Games

  85. M.... T....

    grace you're the number 1 star

  86. F.... L....

  87. M.... L....

    When your 13 and can relate lollllll I'm killing myself

    M.... L....

    and the girl who wrote the song is even younger

    M.... L....

    hailey it's based of a book. she hasn't told anybody what book it is exaclty. if you watch some interviews she clearly stated that this song is based of a book.

    M.... L....

    Melissa Luna and she said she wrote this song about a movie she watched. she said "like 12 stars, I wrote that about a movie I saw, I mean like I'm twelve, that's not my past experience!"

  88. I.... R....

    Came here cause I didn't understand anything Grace said lol

  89. S.... ....

    HOW IS SO SHE WISE. LIKE. WTH HOW

  90. i.... ....
