Stars

She climbed the mountain and followed the stream
Yearned for answers and questions to glean
Sought power to ease the curse
Failed to see rewards are worse

And she's staring at the stars
Wondering how far they are

Wanted to control it all and stay on top
The horde of treasure eased the ywap
Coddled and catered, her heart was empty
The search for freedom left her mind cloudy

Never thought she'd get so high
Living how she wanted to try

She never knew she'd pay the cost
Living life consumed with loss

Never thought she'd get so high
Living how she wanted to try

When she was younger, wild, unafraid
Searched for destiny, thought she'd never age
Had all she wanted, never gave in return
Stol'n her fortune, she'd never learn

She never knew she'd pay the cost
Living a life consumed with loss

She looked for the way, heeded the signs
A vision appears from the edge of the sky
Followed her down with a vengeance
Asked her why it should give forgiveness

She never knew she'd pay the cost
Living a life consumed with loss

Never thought she'd get so high
Living how she wanted to try
