What star should I lean on
As I walk the path of life
Towards my destiny, my future, my death
Who is the star that leads me?
The shining example of doing it right
Who is the man who stands beside me
When seeking that second opinion
But trust only the instinct of self
To love with a wild abandon
Yet never revealing the intimate pain
By always moving forward without looking back
The one who told me there are no second chances
No, if only regrets from the past
As the moment can never come again
