Starlight

You are the life when all else is dead,
I'm finding peace in all the words you said.
You always stand out like a star.
I don't want to see you forget who you are.
I see right through you, so you cannot lie.
And if you are wrong than so am I.

You pick up the scattered pieces and learn,
But I don't want to watch you burn.
Everyone wants a turn at your heart,
Yet I've been here for you from the start.
What is it that you're afraid to say?
When we're gone my heart is here to stay.
And if you are lost than so am I,
But I don't want to watch you cry.

Pieces are falling all around you,
I'm behind you no matter what we go through.
Sometimes life can be confusing and strange,
But I don't want to watch you change.
Just a matter of time before we lose our grip,
Dig ourselves out only to find another way to trip.
But you and I, we always find a way out,
You've made me believe again and lose my doubt.

With your silence you speak kindness,
All of these things upon me you impress.
Even the brightest stars burn out and fade,
But your legend will never be swayed.
You always find what it is that I need.
But I don't want to watch you bleed.

Between all of us there is this wall,
But I don't want to watch you fall.
You break it down, brick by brick,
Because the hypocrisy makes us sick.
You tear it down, stone by stone,
You've made me believe I'll never be alone.
When everything spins out of control,
You stand still; beautiful is your soul.
You are the starlight that breaks me free,
You've made me believe again in me.
