We all have gone through at least one tough situation in our lives where it can really affect your mental well-being. Life can be hard, sometimes it's almost unbearable; but learning how to cope with your emotions is the only way to achieve peace. Everyone has bad days and we have to push through it until better days come. Christina Sikora’s single, “Seeing Stars” is about having the deep thoughts that come with going through those dark periods in our lives. Those moments can sometimes change you forever. We go through all these rollercoasters of emotions that we’re unable to get out of which can cause problems within ourselves. We all struggle with something and sometimes are unable to control it. You just have to remember that these feelings won't last forever, and it will always get better.

The listener can feel sympathetic through her words which shows the true impact of this track. The meaning of the lyrics are told with strength and courage that seems hard to muster up, but the beat assists with it making this song extremely effective and powerful.
