When you were young and scared of nobody, 💥
You were enchanted by the moon, 💥
And a field of glowing stars that clung. . 💥
To the ceiling of your room, 💥
You drew lines to link their beauty, 💥
Made constellations of your own, 💥
An explorer of the universe, 💥
With your warm bed for a throne, 💥
And you remember one cold evening.💥
When those stars had lost their light, 💥
How you grabbed your favourite sweater, 💥
And padded out into the night, 💥
You couldn’t stop their large expanse, 💥

From making you feel small, 💥
The constellations stayed the same, 💥
And every star you made your own, 💥
Already had a name, 💥
And the sight that lay above you, 💥
Made your tiny heart start reeling, 💥
As a sea of glinting starlight danced, 💥
On the worlds now darkened ceiling. 💥
But though the stars strung high above you, 💥
Claimed you were part of it all, 💥
For despite all of the lines you drew, 💥
For a star’s light can be slow, 💥
But listen young explorer, 💥
And the ones you see above you, 💥
Were made a long long time ago, 💥
And though the world won’t see it, 💥
Until this earth’s a lot more worn, 💥
The moment that you saw that sky, 💥
A brand new star was born.💥
