Lyrics
They tell you you are nothing
They tell you you are strange
A kid who longs for different
Is just "going through a stage"
In a small town with small people
You get used to "out of place"
So your mirror becomes your world
Your mirror keeps you safe
A train leads to the city
The city shows you life
Life leads to your friends
You laugh, you love, you cry
In the darkness you find beauty
A place you can be free
Some light to give you armour
A hymn you can believe
A thousand stars
Will only shine when it’s dark
So though I don’t wish for night
Without the night there can be no day and
All those stars
Are fragments of braver hearts
So when darkness is all around
Know that the stars will surround you
We are only human
We are only heart
Loving brings you life
A dance, a song, a smile
It’s here we break the silence
Leave your sorrow at the door
And everything that’s hurt you
And all that’s gone before
A thousand stars
Will only shine when it’s dark
So though I don’t wish for night
Without the night there can be no day and
All those stars
Are fragments of braver hearts
So when darkness is all around
Know that the stars will surround you
Oh, find the light inside yourself
Let it shine
I won’t hide behind the lies
I’m here, I’m here, oh
A thousand stars
Will only shine when it’s dark
So though I don’t wish for night
Without the night there’s never a day
All those stars
Are fragments of braver hearts
So when darkness is all around
Know that the stars will surround you
A thousand stars
Will only shine for me
A thousand stars
Ohhhhhhhhh
