Watercress - Stars Shine On lyrics

Some people say you are what you eat, But in that case I'm nothing. I don't eat any vegetables, I don't eat any meat, I'm as empty as an unused coffin. My thoughts are just reactions Out of touch with my emotions. I'm as shallow as a puddle in the sun. And my life's not that appealin' 'Cos I don't have any feelin's, I need to have a little bit of fun. But when I walk alone at night, And think about it all, In relation to the stars and sky, My problems seem so small. The nearest star's so far away, And bigger than the sun, but I'm just one. When I compare me to the galaxy, My troubled soul begins to see I'm a grain of sand on the biggest beach, And there's places my annoyances will never reach. They don't affect the colour of the Milky Way, They're only really relevant today. In a million years, they'll have disappeared, My tears and fears won't count in any way, But the stars shine on. The stars shine on. x11
