The Star Lyrics


“The Star”
Aryn Michelle 2011

I doubt myself when I’m front and center
and I’m pouring out my heart and no one’s listening
wanna make those people say, “wow, you got meaning to deliver,
you got gumption, you got leverage, you’re a winner.”
but I’m not as young as I used to be, as stylish as I care to be
but that’s all there is of me, nothing more

But it’s time to stop waiting, and get a little bit braver
and remember whose glory I’m fighting for
to make a real connection, you gotta take that attention
and turn it away from my front door
’cause it matters, yes it matters whose the star

Capture my heart from flash and glitter
and let me set my hopes on things that matter
wanna be trasnformed from a wayward vixen
to a warrior with more than good intentions
so I’m not as young as I used to be, as stylish as I care to be
but that’s all there is of me, nothing more

So it’s time to stop waiting, and get a little bit braver
and remember whose glory I’m fighting for
to make a real connection, you gotta take that attention
and turn it away from my front door
’cause it matters, yes it matters whose the star

In a void, alone, with just my soul would I cling to all these earthly goals?
Would it matter to you or to me?
In a void, alone, with just my soul would I care if I was rich or known?
Would it matter more than truth, and hope and eternity

it’s time to stop waiting, get a little bit braver
and remember whose glory I’m fighting for
to make a real connection, you gotta take that attention
and turn it away from my front door
So it’s time to stop waiting, and get a little bit braver
and remember whose glory we’re fighting for
to make a real connection, you gotta take that attention
and turn it away from our front door
’cause it matters, yes it matters whose the star
oh it matters, yes it matters whose the star
