Star from Alarms by Cheryl Foster

Down, down down the darkened road
Where the street lights hover under distant cover
Hiding with the fleeting stars
Coiled up along street-parked cars

Feeding on the fear you feel
Anxious girl in a messed-up world
Caught up in a web of lies
You tell yourself, you compromise

But Dream
Dream of someday on and on
The war you’ve won
Dream
Of the dream you are
You’re not the fear
You are the star

Up, up, up and still the beast
Kill the doubting voice you feed
“You’re nothing but a wanna-be”
Kill that shadow, set it free

Take some hope and grab the light
Hold the grace you feel inside
Let the honest stain the soul
Get out of this deep deep hole

And Dream
Dream of someday on and on
The war you’ve won
Dream
Of the dream you are
You’re not the fear
You are the star
