I’m the One that Shot the Star Out of the Sky

I'm the one that shot the star out of the sky

BANG! It fell like a dead bird to the ground

It had glittered and hung like a diamond on a ring

It had silently stood, singing without sound

I'm the one that shot the star out of the sky

Now it's just a twinkle in my eye as it blinks

And a mini ocean starts to pour and leak

From my eye but my body doesn't think

Cause I'm the one that shot the star out of the sky

It's just a pile of ashes now, wisps of wishes on whim

Winners wanting, praying, seeking, competing

For what my star already had within

I'm the one that shot my star from the sky

It lays in a pile at my feet, smoking like weed

Wine and whiskey concede to the darkness that's left

Now the light is dead and there is no star in me

I'm the one that tripped and fell out of the sky

I was a star that glittered and flew

I hung above and watched the world with a smile

Of hope and joy because I knew

I was a star meant to hang in the sky

Full of faith in princes and angels and love

But there are no stars left so the sky is dark

It is quiet bellow, cloudy and empty above

Because I leapt out of the sky

My flickering light is dim, dying, fading, waning, wanting

I am tired, frail, weak, scared, pain inside me screams to escape

It scratches me inside my skin for a cut to crawl through-begging, screaming, needing

Should I make a hole so it can get out?

A door the pain can walk through taking its poison away? No, not today

I am stronger then this pain I am drowning in

There is one rope left to climb, does God wait for me in the sky?

Is He the one who threw the rope? I don't know, but I'll try

This little star is climbing back to the sky
