Cold.
Why is she so cold?
She shivers, tries to understand
When did she allow herself to fall again?

Dark.
Yes, it was so dark
In the depths of her lonely mind
Always searching for a spark
She couldn't see what a firework laid inside

Warm.
Oh, it felt so warm
When finally a flame lit
A flame that kept her safe from the madness around it

Cold.
Why is she so cold?
She burned down as fast as a match
The light went off, but she still tries

Maybe one day she'll close her eyes
And realize;
She was a star all along.
