Lyric

On the mountaintop of my childhood days

The stars seemed to fall into my hands

I believed in dreams, shapes I could hold

In the night breeze, I trusted their glow

But in the city, between towering walls

The sky became a tiny, cut-out frame

Even as more things came within reach

The truest light felt far away

Elusive stars, stay here a while

Even if you’re just an illusion that lights my heart

I’ll sketch the dreams I thought I lost

In this city, I’ll choose tomorrow

So near, yet far — I ask the sky

Our layered voices dissolve into the night

(Why can’t I reach you?)

Taking a deep breath, I tell myself I can walk

Holding lies to believe in the path ahead

Eyes lifted, stardust sways above

(Stay, stay, stay)

Scattered light burns within my chest

Neon waves reflect on the pavement

Dreams slowly shape themselves into reality

Looking back, the mountains I once climbed

Call softly from the depths of my heart

That brilliance I thought I could touch

Now flickers like a phantom in the air

Yet my footsteps keep moving forward

Marking the heartbeat of the night

Elusive stars, stay here a while

I’ll push past the pain and seek the answer

I’ll sketch the dreams I once gave up

In this city, I’ll choose tomorrow

The stars I gazed at in childhood nights

Still breathe deep within my chest

Even in the sky now veiled by buildings

That light alone remains

Elusive stars, don’t disappear

Even if an illusion, shine upon my heart

I’ll sketch the dreams I thought I lost

In this city, I’ll choose tomorrow

Stars, stars, stars
