Little Star - Acoustic Version

You
Summers in your bedroom
Made yourself a kingdom
Imagining how you'd rule
And everyone you knew
Said she must be a genius
Look at how the brush it moves

Keep listening, keep watching
Keep working, not stopping
Little genius, little star
You're everything
They say you are
Is it lovely in the dark
Or do you dim as you go on

You
Autumns by the schoolyard
Alpha of the Exxon
The girls all wanna be like you
In everything you do
She must be a leader
Look at how the crowd it moves

Keep listening, keep watching
Keep working, not stopping
Little genius, little star
You're everything
They say you are
Is it lovely in the dark
Or do you dim as you go on

The days they go
Go on, go on
The critics show
Go on, go on
The crowd they know
Go on, go on
That no one waits for so so

Little genius, little star
You're everything
They say you are
Is it lovely in the dark
Or do you dim as you go on

You
Winters in a basement
Trying not to face it
Wonder where your kingdom went
And when they look at you
Come on little genius
Do it like you used to do

Keep working, keep watching
They'll listen, no stopping
