They say to look up at the stars
To admire them
To follow them
To imitate their every moveThey say to look up at the stars
And smile when they shine brighter
But don't smile TOO bright unless you want people to demand you to stop smiling
Stop laughing
Stop giggling until your goddamn lungs ache from giggling so hardStop the creativity
Stop the knowledgeJust do
Just do
Just goddamn doBut what if I don't want to just do??
What if I wanna act??
What if I wanna stomp??What if I act out??
Does that make me insane??
Well, I'm sorry but it's INSANE how people say they are gonna help other people.....but....
But they never truly help
They only just watch and listen and never ever ever act because speaking out is bad
Because being loud is goddamn rudeBut if you don't speak out you're gonna be blue
And you better watch your fucking vocabularyDon't do this
Do that!That's good...
Good girlSo look up at the gosh darn, sweetheart
But don't follow them wherever they may go
