Star light,



star bright,

No stars light up the,



night,


In my room,


all alone,

fear and darkness begin



to roam,
Nothing's right, nothing's fair,
I fake a smile to hide the



tears,

Nothing I say or do is right,

Mom and I are in a fight,

Star light, star bright,

Light up the night,

Please, oh please,

Help something go right.
