The stars aren’t shining,
It just appears to be so.
They’ve already burned out, you know.

Clouds, they have no silver lining.
That’s just an expression,
Made up to repel depression.

And at the finale of the show
Are you just another John Doe
Your importance quickly declining?

Or did you make a lasting impression?
Through wealth or your profession?
Everyone please, quit whining.

Forget about material possession
This isn’t just a practice session
make it a masterpiece; your own Van Gogh.
‘Cause it’ll be over soon, you know.
