The stars of her eyes Were barely visible through the windows of her soul So she came to society To ask for help to brighten her glow Society gave her a match And said, "Don't be shy" So she lit her eyes up Without ever asking why The flame started out slow But spread faster than disease So instead of being the brightest star She found herself being swallowed by the seas

Matches
The stars of her eyes Were barely visible through the windows of her soul So she came to society To ask for help to brighten her glow Society gave her a match And said, "Don't be shy" So she lit her eyes up Without ever asking why The flame started out slow But spread faster than disease So instead of being the brightest star She found herself being swallowed by the seas
