1.A brand-new morning comes, buzzing with life, but I just pass it by—same bad habit as always
2.I want to get back at this unkind day somehow, but I don’t even know how to start3.
4.Someday we’ll all just fade away
5.So is it really okay to end without ever making a single miracle?6.
7.There’s no time to sit around waiting, I’ll move faster than hope itself
8.Since I was born anyway, I might as well try to make a miracle happen
9.I don’t want a sleepy story that’s just painless and easy to look at
10.That star, neither empty nor kind, the first light it ever saw
11.That light is us12.
13.“They say everything balances out to zero in the end.”
14.But what kind of math makes that true?
15.How do you explain the way sorrow always ends up becoming my familiar face?16.
17.Don’t try to talk me down with some cheap trick like “you just don’t notice the little happinesses.”
18.Because I’m made up of all those tiny scraps of hope that I’ve scraped together to survive19.
20.“They say someday, you’ll understand too.”
21.But I don’t have a use for that, not even for a tenth of a second
22.These feelings that can’t be told to anyone in this world, they’re born again today
23.And I almost spill them all out, just to you24.
25.There’s no time to sit around waiting, I’ll move faster than hope itself
26.Since I was born anyway, I might as well try to make a miracle happen
27.I don’t want a sleepy story that’s just painless and easy to look at
28.That star, neither empty nor kind, the first light it ever saw
29.That light is us30.
31.Trying not to get swept away by the flow of time itself
32.How much meaning is there, really, in just managing to stay alive?33.
34.Rebelling, giving up, I lie down flat on the ground
35.And for the first time in ages, I Look up—to a sky just like the day I was born36.
37.There’s no time to sit around waiting, I’ll move faster than hope itself
38.Since I was born anyway, I might as well try to make a miracle happen
39.I don’t want a sleepy story that’s just painless and easy to look at
40.That star, neither empty nor kind, the first light it ever saw
41.That light is us
