Wish Upon a Star

Location

Sometimes we are lost and scarred

We are hiding from the way we are

And when our lives start to hurt the most

We ask for things that have no worth

Money, women, greed, and relief

When its the challenge that saves our hearts

While pain and terror scare us silly

How will money save us from the danger

Remember my friend when life's most scarey

Its family and friendship that are most worthy

Wish for hope and compassion and love

Not for fame held up above.

Hope is as rare as stars in the sky

We have to look up to know its there.
