Starlight
Lost in Starlight: A Tale of Love's Fading Glow
Lyrics
Long nights, watch the
Reflecting on extended periods of darkness, observing
Starlights, my eyes
Noticing the brightness of stars with one's eyes
Stay dry, won't cry
Remaining emotionally composed, avoiding tears
Keep it inside
Keeping emotions and struggles internalized
I stood, tongue-tied
Feeling unable to express oneself verbally
Watched you, that night
Observing someone during a specific night
I know, you lied
Recognizing a falsehood or deception from the other person
You've put me aside
Feeling rejected or neglected by the person
Starlight used to shine
Nostalgia for a time when the person's presence was radiant
So bright at night
Expressing the vividness of the starlight in the past
I'm on my own
Sense of solitude, questioning the departure of the person
Why did you go?
Seeking understanding for the reasons behind the person leaving
One day you'll see
Anticipating the person's realization of their significance
What you meant to me
Desperation, willing to beg and plead for reconciliation
I'll beg I'll plead
Expressing a deep emotional investment in the relationship
I hope you're happy
Wishing the person well and hoping for their happiness
I'm first to confess
Admitting personal imperfections and faults
That I'm not perfect
Acknowledging the effort to be the best despite shortcomings
I try my best
Embracing the reality of being in a state of disarray
I'm just a mess
Accepting a chaotic and confused state of being
What'd you, expect
Questioning the expectations placed on oneself
I'm not, worth it
Expressing self-doubt and a feeling of not being deserving
When you, first met
Recalling the initial impression made on the person
I could see it
Perceiving a lack of worthiness from the beginning
Starlight used to shine
Reiteration of the nostalgic brightness of past starlight
So bright at night
Re-experiencing the brilliance of the night in memory
I'm on my own
Continuing to grapple with solitude and the departure
Why did you go?
Questioning the reasons behind the person's leaving
One day you'll see
Reiterating the hope for the person's realization of importance
What you meant to me
Repeating the desperation and willingness to plead
I'll beg and plead
Expressing a deep emotional investment in the relationship
I hope you're happy
Wishing the person well and hoping for their happiness
Some stars will light
Recognizing the variability of stars in lighting up the night
Light up the night
Acknowledging stars that continue to bring light
Some stars will die
Acknowledging stars that fade away despite their initial brightness
Die out so bright
Highlighting the impermanence of certain sources of light
Some stars will light
Reiterating the variability of stars in lighting up the night
Light up the night
Emphasizing stars that persist in bringing light
Some stars will die
Re-emphasizing stars that fade away despite initial brightness
Die out so bright
Reiterating the transient nature of certain sources of light
Some stars will light
Highlighting the variability of stars in lighting up the night
Light up the night
Recognizing stars that persist in bringing light
Some stars will die
Acknowledging stars that fade away despite initial brightness
Die out so bright
Reiterating the impermanence of certain sources of light
