Child of the Stars

Her world was supposed to be a shelter for life
But was failing to be
She thought why’d we want to hide away from the light?
She was so naïve

Father once told her: “Oh, sometimes you need to take
a few steps back to get to see the truth.
You will feel lost at times but that’s alright you’re not alone just keep your mind open and you…”

You will find love
You will find truth
You will find peace
If you remember just one thing
You’re a child of the stars
Child of the stars
Right from the start
Child of the stars

She flew up above to get a different view
Couldn’t believe what she saw
Her world was a tiny dot lost in the blue
She looked up in awe

How is it possible that all this greed and hate?
That all these wars and pain fit in this place? - She thought
If everyone did the same, then they’d understand
only together we stand a chance.

You will find love
You will find truth
You will find peace
If you remember just one thing
You’re a child of the stars
Child of the stars
Right from the start
Child of the stars

Then she decided she’d be like a shooting star
Burn like fire, lighten other people’s lives
It’s so much brighter knowing that it doesn’t last
Fleeting beauty, together we can make it shine

You will find love
You will find truth
You will find peace
If you remember just one thing

Child of the stars
Right from the start
Child of the stars
‘Till we are dust
Child of the stars
Right from the start
Child of the stars
