A Tear From the Sky

When you look up at the stars
you see light, you feel hopeful
you believe that the future is bright
But when you watch time passes by you
taking away your happiness along with it
your joy, your hope, your love
disappearing before your very eyes
you will realize how fragile happiness is
how short-lived joy really is
The world is drowned in sadness, crying
can't you see?
There is no hope, no bright future
As you grow older, cruel reality will take you away
from your pleasant naive innocent thoughts
Sooner or later, you'll realize
stars hold nothing more than lies
and empty promises of tomorrow
Shooting star will no longer be hope
rather, it will become a tear
from you, crying to the sky, the heaven
begging for that happy dream you can no longer have.
