People think of ways to run They find ways to hide from what used to be all they loved The best way to go at that fork in the road Is through the stars So easy to get lost in And they’re always there The best way to forget how lonely you are Is to put you amongst 10,000 stars And the beautiful part is That you wont be able to find yourself You’ll be so bright that you shimmer with the stars You feel so close, even though they are so far And all that will be left for you Is to sleep with the stars and let them Tuck you in and sing you to sleep Only to find yourself alone again Where people tell you that you’re taking it so well That said they knew you’d be better off alone And you know they are right But all your soul wants is someone to love You know the past is past and you fine with that But you ready for what’s next The stars have nourished you in your rest And you can feel something pulling you out of the sky And as you fall you wonder where you will land next In whose arms will you be dropped In whose hands your heart will lie next Who will drench your heart with love and squeeze the light out of it taking only what they want from it Leaving only drops of stellar Small diamonds that are nothing compared to what you don’t know you are Akin to the stars that reflect in your eyes Making you realize that it’s no surprise And at that point you feel it The pull of the moon And you know once and for all its for the better It makes you stronger The love you give is only what they take And they keep it with them knowing you’re the one the one that wasn’t fake And the one that will stop before taking all you can give Will free you from the stars.
