Innocence lost
Attention found
Everyone turns the other cheek
Just because she fell when no one was around
Doesn't mean she don't cry herself to sleep

(Oh little star
You could shine so bright
But there's always something out there
Trying to dim your light
You have to choose what's true, what's honest and what's right
Let go of all your strife
And take a chance--
I know you're better than that)

A tired soul already, yet so young
Stop being a fool and respect yourself enough
Let your voice be heard
High above the earth
Little star, show them what you're worth

With a little perseverance you will overcome
The hardships of your teen years-I remember them too
The self loathing and self hatred
They are things that follow you

Sometimes what you say in one day
Can haunt you all your life
you have to have respect for yourself
Someday you'll be a woman, a mother and wife
Would you want your daughter to be like you?
Do you want her to do the things you do?

Oh little star
Are you looking for the sun?
Are you trying to find someone to love you so?
You don't let them see how much you hurt inside
If you speak from your heart and not your mind-maybe they'd understand
Maybe they wouldn't be so blind
