We're All Just Stars

The fear that comes alive inside
is brought to life in the dark of night.
Stars shining,
but we feel too small to stand.
We're spinning on an axis being spun by a hand.
You're hand, I know.
And you won't go but
the world leaves me.
And if I ever left it
would anyone stop me?
Or would they just let me quit?
Well I know that he'd follow me.
Too much a risk for me to take.
His heart too big to waste.
His hands to young
and they'll do greater things
than he knows.
Sometimes I think he's wiser than
I ever give him credit for.
But he's learned more from me
than I've learned from him.
The stars can't reach me.
But he's still a light.
And for those nighttimes I'm stuck
staring down at my feet
he pulls me back up
and says "Sis, I've got ya."
I am loved and I know it.
Even if it ever comes to just him
I can still keep on walking.
I haven't burned out yet.
