She had stars behind each eyelid
And a galaxy in her soul
That drew people to her endless heart
Like the pull of a black hole
She was made of earth and fire
Of wishes cast on shooting stars
She was a brand new solar system
Unlike the ones they'd known so far
With constellations ever changing
No one could memorise her skies
And they thought the thing for them to do
Was bring her to their size
They shrunk the universe within her
Told her her vast expanse was wrong
That she should make her life much smaller
If she wanted to belong
As they collapsed her world around her
She felt her inner stars grow cold
Until her life was far too heavy
For her once strong arms to hold
You might wonder how it happened
But I guess that it makes sense
Because a life becomes much heavier
When it's the universe condensed.
