Shooting Star

No one seems to think too much of me

And they're glad to tell it to my face

And they're right, I'm not supposed to be here

I'm completely out of place

Somehow there has got to be a reason

Even as I try to think it through

There's a bolt from the blue

And I see a shooting star

Set apart from all the rest

While the other stars are standing still

He's on a quest

Every night this shooting star

Flies cross the twilight sky

'Cause he know he doesn't quite fit in

And he's longing to know why

I feel so much better when it's night time

That's when I can sort of disappear

When the sun is setting it's the right time

For pretending I'm not here

Sometimes I just stare up to the heavens

Wondering if the answer is inside

That's when I see the light

Of myself, that shooting star

On his way to who knows where

He's so unlike all the stars

He outshines up there

And this solitary star

Is an awful lot like me

On an endless search through time and space

For a place that won't seem wrong

If we both hang on

For long enough

We both somehow

Are strong enough

We'll find out where we belong

Every night this shooting star

Does he cross the twilight sky

'Cause he knows he doesn't quite fit in

And he's longing to know why

Welcome to the world
