“Annie, use your telescope
To look up at the stars
Maybe you can understand
Who and where you are.
“Annie, use your telescope
And try to take it in:
All of the galaxy above you;
And just how small “home” really is.
“Annie, use your telescope
And then think about your dreams
You think everything is over,
But that’s just the way it seems.
“Annie, use your telescope
And come and tell me then
How you’ll always be in the same place
Cause ‘who you used to be is dead.’
“Annie, use your telescope
And look there for your true love
Because that’s what’s truly beautiful:
That moon and all those stars above
“Annie, use your telescope
And take a deep breath
Because it’s all out there, Annie
And you can see it through this lens.
“Annie, use your telescope.
And accept who you’re gonna be
Annie, use your telescope
And, finally, be free.”
