Northern Star
Melanie C Lyrics

They tried to catch a falling star.
People tried to bring her down when she was in a vulnerable state.

Thinking that she had gone too far.
They thought she had crossed a line by doing something they deemed unacceptable.

She did but kept it hidden well.
She had done whatever she had done, but had hidden it from the world successfully.

Until she cracked and then she fell.
But the burden of keeping it bottled up inside became too much to bear, and she eventually broke down.

If all the history is true.
If everything they say about her is true.

She's gonna end up just like you.
She will face the same fate as those who have fallen before her.

You made it to the other side.
Those who brought you down have moved on and left you behind.

But tell me who will be my guide.
She is looking for someone to help her navigate through the aftermath of her downfall.

They build you up so they can tear you down.
People often create heroes only to enjoy watching them fall.

Trust the ocean you'll never drown.
One can rely on a force like the ocean to keep them afloat during difficult times.

Who is next? Who's gonna steal your crown?
Those who brought you down before may not be the last, and someone else may come to take your place at the top.

You'll see.
Time will tell who the new target will be.

I have learnt my lesson well.
She has gained valuable insight from her own experience of being torn down.

The truth is out there I can tell.
She has discovered a hidden truth about the world and is aware of its existence.

Don't look back and don't give in to their lies and goodbyes.
She encourages people to move beyond the damaging influence of others.

Northern Star.
She provides a symbol of hope and guidance for those who have been brought down by others.

Fulfil the longing in your heart.
She advises people to pursue their passions and desires.

Then we will never be apart.
That way, they will fully belong together.

And if they dare to question you.
If people try to criticize or judge your choices.

Just tell them that our love is true.
She provides justification to stand by what one believes in.

They buy your dreams so they can sell your soul.
People exploit the aspirations of others for their own gain.

Is it any wonder we've lost control?
It is not surprising that we have lost track of who we truly are in the face of external pressures.

Feelings come, feelings go.
Emotions are ephemeral and should not be the sole drivers of our behavior.

Live your life without regret.
She encourages people to pursue their goals boldly.

Don't be someone who they forget.
She advises people not to let others overlook them or their contributions.

When you're lost reach out for me.
She provides comfort and guidance for people who feel directionless.

And you'll see she's not far.
She is always available to offer support and direction to those who need it.

Northern Star.
Her guidance and support remain a symbol of hope for those who need it.
