Nights and days are all the same
One particular day should be main
The stars all up in the night
It's hard to know the ones that bright.
People come and people go
I became my biggest foe
Chasing a dream that never wanted me
Wanted by me was to be free.
The higher I climbed, the more distant I grew
The little I had ran and flew
Felt incomplete, so I decided to change
The trait which was needed a bit out of range.
Mediocrity, confusion, pity was my name
Thrown in without armor in this cruel game
The choices I wanted to make
Discarded all for thier sake
Sounds of regret strong in my head
Believing all the lies, I use to be fed
The brightest star of all
somehow wasn’t bright enough for me
Its loss became my fall
Much bigger than I could see.
There was a we and now there’s not
Friendship, an apple bout’ to rot.
Life in shackles, threads I can’t bear
With all my sorrow, a happy face I must wear
Even so torn, all the pain in this world
The bright light still shines deep within in this void.
