Verse 1 She lies beneath the open sky, the grass is cold beneath her skin. Millions of stars above her, and silence settling in. She knows their names by heart, or at least she tries to. She loves the endless universe, because it never asks her why she's sad. Verse 2 She watches distant galaxies sleep behind the blue-black night. The moon is barely shining, but somehow everything feels bright. For a little while, she forgets the world below. No questions. No pretending. No one asking her to smile. Pre-Chorus She wonders if the universe knows how small she feels. A tiny soul beneath something infinite, trying so hard to heal. Chorus Then a shooting star cuts across the sky. And she closes her eyes before it disappears. She doesn't wish for money. She doesn't wish for love. She doesn't wish for anything grand. She whispers, "Please… just give me a little bit of joy." Just one morning without the heaviness. One laugh that doesn't feel forced. One moment where being alive doesn't hurt so much. Verse 3 The star is gone already. The darkness fills its place. She opens up her eyes again and stares into the space. She thinks about the days she spent feeling nothing. About waking up exhausted, before the day had even started. About pretending she was fine because explaining the truth felt impossible. Bridge Maybe somewhere in the universe there's a world where she is happy. Maybe there's another version of her who laughs without thinking about it. Maybe she was supposed to be that girl. She just doesn't know how to find her anymore. Chorus Another shooting star wouldn't be enough. She needs something deeper than a wish made in the dark. But still she looks upward with tears in her eyes and whispers to the stars— "Please… just give me a little bit of joy." Not forever. Not a perfect life. Just something beautiful that belongs to her. Verse 4 The grass is getting colder. The night is getting late. She stays there beneath the stars, watching the universe rotate. And somehow it's almost cruel how beautiful the sky can be when everything inside her feels so painfully empty. Chorus She sees one final shooting star fading somewhere far away. She doesn't even close her eyes. She just watches it decay. And tears run down her face as she quietly says, *"I don't need the whole universe. I don't need everything to change. I just want to wake up one morning and feel something other than pain. Just once… let happiness find me. Just once… let me feel a little bit of joy."* Outro The stars keep shining. The universe keeps turning. And she lies beneath it all, still trying to understand how something so beautiful can exist above her while she feels so empty underneath. She keeps staring at the stars. Waiting for another one to fall. Not because she believes it will save her— but because, for a few seconds, the sky gives her something to look forward to.
