Dead Stars

I'll never be a star

I'll never shine my light

And I'll tell myself

I'll say that its alright

I'll stay here in the dark

And the world will never see

All of this potential

That hides inside of me

You don't even see me

You look right past my face

Society has beat me down

Until I understand my place

But I don't need your pity

I don't need to be set free

Around me are the millions

Who don't know they're just like me
