I wish that every time a great line is written by some unknown writer, a new star is forged in the sky to burn for them.
You will be surprised to see such a night sky, overflowing with stars.
Then I'll ask you, "Why are you crying?"

You told me I was loveless and heartless
for hurting you
But let me ask you this question:
Where was your heart when you destroyed me
and called it love?

Did you expect
to be adored by
romanticizing yourself
as a monster?
I'll show you
what a monster
you truly are.

When I'm depressed, I feel like I'm a T-Rex who wants to clap her hands but can't.
Then you said you'd be a T-Rex too and clapped my hand.
We'd sing, "If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands."
I said thank you and hugged you
Then you said that we need longer hands to hug
We need to evolve to have longer hands
And we'll figure it out together.
