And dozens of galaxies
Among them, the brightest star
Clear and sparkling, it’s you
Deep in your heart
I’ve taken a place

Deep in your heart

Brightness is a lie called positivity

You shine in the day and my night
Because we become precious to each other

🎵 Song Meaning & Interpretation
The lyrics celebrate individuality by comparing someone who feels different from everyone else to a black star that shines precisely because it does not resemble the rest. Rather than accepting the idea that brightness and positivity are the only forms of beauty, the narrator finds something precious in darkness, difference, and the unique traces each person leaves behind. The image of countless stars and galaxies becomes a reminder that everyone carries a distinct light, while love turns two separate worlds into a constellation of their own. Even when the other person sinks into the night, the narrator promises to remain beside them, offering quiet comfort and affirming that their unique light is enough simply because it belongs to them.
