Parables learned the hard way can be haunting 
In a life lived solitary lonely and wanting 
But this is what I get for trying to trap a star 
An emotional scar, smothering radiance mars 
The balance of things was too upset 
And the other stargazers couldn't forget 
The pressure quickly became unstable 
It’s like I was searching for truth in a fable 
You may think you know who a person is 
But blinding is the star that is burdened like this 
It's bound to become an illusion of what you wish it could be 
When you do good you should throw it in the sea 
Don't drink poison to quench a thirst 
In morals the sad man must become well versed
