open your eyes, please
and see my pain for once.
open your eyes
and see the hurt in mine.
open your eyes
and see me, for beyond the big sweaters
and the smiles and laughs
is someone who's falling apart
open your eyes
can't you see I'm dying?

don't mistake
salt for sugar
if she wants you
deeply, really wants you
she will cherish you
and when you try to leave
like you always do
she will love you enough to keep you
and tell you to stay.
don't mistake
salt for sugar.

there's so much you can't see
the stars
only visible upon your deathbed
they wink
don't be scared
a whole city made for bliss
and happiness
forever ignorant of the strife of the living
the city of stars
stardust scattered
over the glimmering buildings of power
you are finally ready to meet your Maker
in the city of stars

— The End —
