I know a boy, he brought life to this girl.
Because of him, I found beauty and saw it everywhere in the world.
He brought me to new heights that can seldom be reached.
I was lost in the stars, forgetting all underneath.
But then he dropped me, he returned to the past.
I caught myself on a star, I don't want to fall, I will surely crash.
This star I hold burns me, but I still wish upon it desperately.
I wish for the boy to return, maybe he will catch me.
But as we know, I am weak and I eventually release the star.
I fall from so high, out of the sky, I hit the ground so hard.
Yet somehow I survive, though I wish the fall were fatal.
My unknown strength is inconvenient, and I am so ungrateful.
My body is broken, paralyzed, I'm speechless and lost.
I then see clearly the cruelty of survival and its cost.
My perception is changed, darkness has invaded.
You've stolen the color from my world, and I've become so jaded.
