Facade

Façade 4: Gold Chain

All my life, I was raised to be a star

Not the falling star but the ones you look up into the sky

And never did I think I was less than that

Or never did I try to dull the light in me

But as the sun changes into moon a hundred times

And when the sky would turn from light to blue

And the clouds start to cry out of burden

I have stuck to realizing, I am meant for falling

And as I dive into my free fall

Failing was never my worry and disappointment

But the damage I would cause as I land

It would hurt me, but I think, it would hurt them more

The last thing I wanted to do was to flow rivers

And if this is the last time before I fall

I would like the gold chain on my neck

Be tightly grip around it, and you look at me proud 'cause I've made it

I am a star and you'd always look up to me

I'll never lose my shine

But maybe, I'd be out of sight.
