Lonely star in the night
How do you keep your light?

Among the stretch of dark
Threatening to snuff out your essence

Lonely star in the night
Do others see your shine?

Among the terrors of the world
When all they see is pain and suffering

Lonely star in the night
Can you show me life?

Among the tanks and bombs and guns
Enough to make me doubt your existence

Lonely star in the night
Are you even there?

Among the deepest darkness
As you look upon us so far away

Lonely star in the night
Could you help me to believe once more?

Because if I don’t reach for the stars
I will fall for anything in this wicked world
