Stop Crying and Look at the Stars

Dragged into this cruel world,
A frightening mess:
Stop crying and look at the stars.

Like a pawn that has been hurled
Into a battle of chess:
Stop crying and look at the stars.

Now walking and talking
And tears have been shed:
Stop crying and look at the stars.

And knowing they're stalking

Beneath your bed:
Stop crying and look at the stars.

Ten years old, already

Damaged, imperfect:
Stop crying and look at the stars.

Yes, now you are ready,

To see what life's like:
Stops crying and look at the stars.

Ready to be married,
Now years have gone by:
Stop crying and look at the stars.

Burdens must be carried,
Raised voices, a cry:
Stop crying and look at the stars.

All hope has left you

Along with your love:
Stop crying and look at the stars.

There's nothing left to do
But look up above:
Stop crying and look at the stars.

The Gods remain blurry
Through rivers of tears:
Stop crying and look at the stars.

They'll erase all your worries
And wipe all your fears:
So stop crying and look at the stars.
