Overture Lyrics by TheGal101

the light shines, even though the star is gone.

2025

[PART ONE: REFLECTION]
\n[Verse 1]
\nOut there, there's a girl who really needs food
\nAnd she’s not that far away from you
\nThere's just no money for her too
\nYou're rich
\nShe’s slathered in cuts and bruises
\nBecause her dad abuses her
\nAnd she really could use
\nYour help
\nYou look at her like she's a reflection
\nBut instead of heroin injections
\nIn your mirror
\nYou have parents
\nAnd you say “we hope that you will choke”
\nWhile the girl stares because she is broke
\nAnd she wishes she had
\nYour wealth
\n
\n[Pre-Chorus]
\nWhy can't you be broken like
\nEveryone else gets to be?
\nFor some reason, you wish they'd strike
\nBut you don't want to be hurt
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nSo you take that girl by the hand
\nAnd you cut to understand
\nAnd act like you
\nHad planned
\nShe cries out a harrowing scream
\nWhile you live your fantasy
\nYou dreamt in dreams
\nA belt
\nAnd you make things so obvious
\nYou do it just to be us
\nAnd you don't know
\nYou're us
\nYou find a way t-to lose weight
\nA purge at one-eighty-eight
\nThink what you ate
\nYou melt
\n
\n[Pre-Chorus]
\nWhy can't you be broken like
\nEveryone else gets to be?
\nFor some reason, you wish they’d strike
\nBut you don’t want to be hurt
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI wish I could be an adult just to please
\nI wish I could be an adult to grow up
\nI wish I could be an adult just to see
\nI'm too young to understand
\n
\n[Verse 3]
\nYou rebrand yourself to be dark
\nBut you can’t change who you are
\nFuck, I slipped up
\nYou can
\nWinter is painful for you too
\nBut that's not even true
\nYou just hate you
\nYourself
\nYou beg for attention from them
\nBy “them”, I mean every “them”
\nYou lay your eyes
\nUpon
\nSo, the girl stares back into you
\nYou soon see that you've no food
\nYou've destroyed you
\nYour help
\n
\n[Pre-Chorus]
\nWhy can’t you be broken like
\nEveryone else gets to be?
\nFor some reason, you wish they'd strike
\nBut you don't want to be hurt
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI wish I could be an adult just to please
\nI wish I could be an adult to grow up
\nI wish I could be an adult just to see
\nI'm too young to understand
\n
\n[Post-Chorus]
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\n
\n[Bridge]
\nTwinkle twinkle, little star
\nHow I wonder why you are
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nI wish I could be an adult just to please
\nI wish I could be an adult to grow up
\nI wish I could be an adult just to see
\nI'm too young to understand
\n
\n[Post-Chorus]
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\n
\n
\n[PART TWO: OVERREACTION]
\n[Instrumental]
\n
\n
\n[PART THREE: CHILDLIKE WONDER]
\n[Verse 1]
\nYou know you wish to be someone else
\nMaybe you should stick to being yourself
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nMommy loves you, keeps you safe, and you warm
\nMaybe the point is to never grow up
\n
\n
\n[PART FOUR: MAD WORLD]
\n[Verse]
\nAll around me are familiar faces
\nWorn-out places, worn-out faces
\nBright and early for their daily races
\nGoing nowhere, going nowhere
\nTheir tears are filling up their glasses
\nNo expression, no expression
\nHide my head, I wanna drown my sorrow
\nNo tomorrow, no tomorrow
\n
\n[Pre-Chorus]
\nAnd I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
\nI've lost my childhood and yet I still haven't been had
\nI find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
\nI guess we're all just children living in a very
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nMad world
\nMad world
\n
\n
\n[PART FIVE: INDIVIDUALITY]
\n[Chorus]
\nI wish I could be a woman just to please
\nI wish I could take back wanting to grow up
\nI wish I could be a person just to see
\nNow I think I understand
\n
\n[Post-Chorus/Outro]
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand
\nStand\n\n
