Star Cannon
Cracked Stars Illuminate: Embracing Broken Pieces of Love
Lyrics
I have walked this road
The singer has experienced this journey or situation before.
I have felt it in my bones before
She's familiar with the feeling deeply within herself.
Thought love was never ending
Believed that love was perpetual, everlasting.
I'll take another chance
She's willing to take another opportunity or risk.
Felt I knew you at first glance
She felt an immediate connection or familiarity upon meeting.
I'm yours as long as you will have me
Expressing a commitment to the other person, subject to their acceptance.
Now I understand the feelings of a lonely star that's been cracked apart
Understanding the emotions of isolation and fragmentation felt by a celestial body, like a star, that's been broken.
But in the end the pieces are what give it light
Despite being shattered, the pieces contribute to its brightness.
They take over the night
These pieces dominate and illuminate the darkness.
Oh, oh oh
Vocals/emotional expression.
I've been in this room
Referencing a familiar space.
And it's easy to assume that you'll always be here beside me
Assumption of constant companionship or presence.
Don't let my mind go astray
Desire to stay focused on the connection.
Lead me back to you
Request to be guided back to the relationship/connection.
It's where I am belonging
Feeling of belongingness to the relationship/space.
Now I understand the feelings of a lonely star that's been cracked apart
Understanding the emotions of isolation and fragmentation felt by a celestial body, like a star, that's been broken.
But in the end the pieces are what give it light
Despite being shattered, the pieces contribute to its brightness.
They take over the night
These pieces dominate and illuminate the darkness.
Oh, oh oh
Vocals/emotional expression.
Now I understand the feelings of a lonely star that's been cracked apart
Understanding the emotions of isolation and fragmentation felt by a celestial body, like a star, that's been broken.
But in the end the pieces are what give it light
Despite being shattered, the pieces contribute to its brightness.
They take over the night
These pieces dominate and illuminate the darkness.
Oh, oh ooh, they take over the night
Vocals/emotional expression.
Oh, oh ooh, they make it shine so bright
Emphasizing how the shattered pieces make the star shine brightly.
