Stop feeling okay,
About the scars you have
Thinking the moon has scars too
Can't you see its so bright that
People don't notice a scratch
Although it's bruised.
Stop feeling okay
About being lonely
Thinking the moon is lonely too
Can't you see there are other moons too
And he has stars as friends
Although they are just not the ones he can vent onto.
Stop feeling okay
About not being appreciated
Thinking the moon isn't as unique as you
Can't you see he shines too
Although it's your light he steals.
Stop feeling okay
About being called fake
Thinking the moon is not as true as you
Can't you see he manages to look pure and white
Although he has no life within.
Stop feeling okay
About being grumpy all day
Thinking not everyone is as calm as the moon
Can't you see you help people ,
You know them like no one else
Although you are loyal, people trust the moon.
They tell him all their secrets and
fall asleep below his grace
Even if it's falsest of the hope
It's with him they want to rest.
So at least now
Stop feeling okay
About being the sun
Thinking the moon is important too
Can't you see he has taken all the credit
Although he is not a bit as good as you.
