Darling I'm not the same as I was back then,
I thought comets and stars were things in the sky
Until I looked around one day to find
That they're in as many people
As they are in my mind
No one is really ever the same, you see
Everything changes you and me
Every thought and action we do will lead
Into another alternate reality.
What if we turned left instead of right that one day?
Would we have met with early demise?
Or would we have gotten that job we had hoped to find?
See these are the things that are constantly on my mind
For I can't help but contemplate how the stars align
To bring us closer together or further apart
Or weather or not you see someone's true heart.
I guess it's a difficult concept for some to grasp
I mean even I am having a momentary lapse of reason
I guess that's just part of being human
Thinking about what's bigger about us
Or what could bring our downfall
So many of us just sit and contemplate what it means to be in this body
And the longer we think about it the more uncomfortable we become with ourselves
Because with how our world works if you're not a size zero through nine you're not worth the time of the males searching for mates.
Or if the muscles in your stomach don't look like a six-pack then you're not a very good looking male in the first place.
But if you sit and think about how to make this world crumble
You'll see how everyone thinks they're nothing.
But if you tell a girl or guy they're made of stardust and clear skies
They'll laugh and call you a dreamer.
Maybe I am,
Or maybe that's what poets are
Dreamers who think the world is pretty terrible
So they string lines together to create a scenario to help others see the bigger picture
That everyone is made from stardust.
That everyone is beautiful.
