My Shooting Star


Time passes slowly
For people like me
A sunken ship
Rusting in the sea
Wandering in an aimless daze
Looking for love, help or praise
Leaving my home behind to burn
Seeing that this is my only way to turn

Coming into this ghetto of death,
Savioring every weakening breath,
Lost in a vortex of loss and despair
My heart was longing for somebody's care

We met again, reclaiming my thoughts from before
My memories were suddenly hard to ignore
After all I had seen in a fearful arose,
Seeing you there like a blooming rose,
Like the stars in the sky embraced by the night,
In my darkness, you were my light.

I was still confused, but now I know
I was never lost like I was long ago
Seeing you smiling and rushing to my side
I loved my refusal to run and hide
I wasn't afraid to be in your sight,
I knew now that the time was right.

Loathing the thought of leaving your side again,
I can finally release such a dreadful sin,
We are the stars in the azure night
We are the wind that gives the eagles flight
If you are to fall I will never be far,
You are my love, my friend, my shooting star...
