Fallen Star

it was a bright sunday morning on july the fifth
shes all alone in an alley with her stockings ripped
the last thing she seen was fireworks in the night
the only thing that shone bright in her cursed life
at first sight you could tell somethin was out of place
shes pale white with a tear runnin down her face
the clouds form a dark circle on the shell of a teen
so far it seems shes been to heaven hell an between
but somehow time stopped no more dwellin with fiends
no more players and drug dealers sellin her dreams
the grim reality presented in the tale of a queen
she never made it to see seventeen

(chorus)
to this life shes a slave, to the drugs shes a hostage
shes fightin to change, but cant discover the options
the lights seem so bright an they illuminate the night
but she cant escape the darkness that consumes her life
(chorus)

she was born into a world of broken dreams an pain
mom always tryin to warn her bout the price of fame
refused to listen to tales of tinsel town maliciousness
motivated with ambition, but consumed with innocence
Angel quit school an moved out west to pursue her dream
of seen her name up on the silver screen
even though they doubted Angel she proudly persisted
she kept at it steady travelin to countless auditions
had to figure out a way to get money just to survive
wasnt tryin to get a job, neglectin a nine to five
now every night she walks the streets to sell her body an her soul
tryin to find true love in a world so cold

(chorus)

turned on to usin drugs to increase her pleasure
got addicted cause they helped relieve the pressure
shes thin as a rail, shes pale as a ghost
ready to quit but to weak to oppose
wakes up in the morning feelin a familiar sickness
is it detox or another of those nasty infections
with nowhere to run an nowhere to hide
everyday talks her self out of committin suicide
once she gets high she finally finds her escape
still constantly wonders how much mroe she can take
been picked up by the cops so many times she lost count
even started askin if she could pleasure them with her mouth

(chorus)

she constantly thinks of all the promises broken
all the scripts never read, all the lines never spoken
always told shes on the brink of bein discovered
but no one knows where shes at, not even her mother
tears fall down her face like a waterfall cascade
wonderin what life will bring from day to day drivin her insane
like lord of the rings shes always tryin to find her precious
wondering if this is her destiny that god manifested
tried to go to hollywood with dreams that shed make it
but ended up goin from room to room layin on her back naked
finally got her 15 minutes after her life had taken its toll
wathed her life slowly diminish, felt like a 100 but only 16 years old
