about

The lyrics to this song were inspired by the story of The Little Prince while also articulating the struggle of transitioning from a child to an adult.

lyrics

In my little world
I lay on a rock and I look up at the stars
Look up at the stars
I've been here so long
I never left because I never had a reason
I never had a reason

Then I met a rose
And it took my breath away
I knew that I
Would never be the same
And I felt so free

The rose wore me down
I set off to explore the sky
All on my own
All on my own
I met many beings
That didn't make sense to me
But I'll find my place
Oh I'll find my place

I'm breaking away
From who I used to be
Discovering things
And places I've never seen
And I feel so free

I'm sorry to leave you
I need to go my own way
Break away
From all I've learned to do and say
You can find me
You can find me in the stars
