The Star You Left Behind

Now you are more free
Than you really want to be
No one holds you in place
& you're drifting off in space
& the stars are all you see-
Far away as they can be
& the star you left behind
Gets dimmer all the time
& the problems that you made
Eventually will fade
& the work that you have done
Seems better when you're gone
Far away from everything
Far away from everywhere;
No one hears you sing
No one knows you care
