The inability to express your feelings

"the song is collectively about love for someone imperfect who is there yet never there. and despite eagerly knowing all about their darkness which is deep inside scarring them, the narrator still sees them as the most beautiful star and tells them it's okay since they're just as imperfectly perfect no matter what. Another thing about this is that it can be thought as for loving a person who is not okay, afraid, and passive. Afraid to confess because both of them are hurting because of many collective reasons. A song we hope young OR deep love will absolutely relate to."

[Verse 1 Whannie, "Ara"]
Can you feel it now, say na na na
Will you stay if you do, oh my love,
"a red ribbon, draped around yourself,
a scar embracing the beauty,
I'd do anything to have you realise."

[Verse 2 "Ara", Whannie]
"In the depth of the darkness,
you're all that i crave and seek,
no sheer hate, no fantasy love,
I'm in so much the extreme between.
"You've got my thoughts wrapped up around yourself,
to a point where I question my existence,
would you think of it the same tomorrow,
when it all starts over differently, and unfolds?

[Pre-Chorus, Whannie]
There's so much left of what I want to tell you,
but you're not here just now,
even if you are

[Chorus, Ara, *both*]
If you hear me right now from the depths,
know that you're a star that shines as it burns.

(Instrumental)

*It's just you whom i think of.
All the words that i want to tell you.*

[Verse 3, Whannie]
How do i tell you i wanna protect you
All the cheesy things in just one line
With one step, two steps
I wish for us, collective
Before we know it, could you be mine
Am i obsessed? or addicted?
I don't even know the difference anymore.
If finally one day you'll think of me too
Will you listen to what I have to say

[Verse 4, Ara]
You keep lingering onto my thoughts
every night every day
Wondering if you're okay because I'm not there
Did you eat on time, did you sleep on time Or did you just cry all night,

Yah,
You keep everything to yourself, being afraid,
you are hurting me too by swelling it up,
yeah I think I'm slowly going crazy but I will still wait for you (always)

[Pre chorus, Whannie]
There's so much left of what I want to tell you
And though you're not here now, tell me will you care

[Chorus, Whannie, *both*]
If you hear me right now from the depths
Know that you're my star that shines as it burns

(instrumental)

A star that shines as it burns
*It's just you whom I think of All the words i want to tell you*

[Bridge, Whannie, "Ara", *both*]
Would you have heard everything by now Say la la la
Every word I wanted you to know
"Everyday everyday everything for you,
All day all day I think of you
Everyday everyday you're my only star"
*Everything i wish to say*

[Post-Chorus, both]
Everything i hope one day,
I will try to reach the sky,
I hope you hear me now
Know that you're the star that shines as it burns.
