Star Lyrics

Mirrors on the table

Empty bottles on the floor

You got what you wanted

Now you're looking for the door

Every time you came here

Seems your world has gotten small

Contemplate your warped reflection

Run away from more rejection

Til you're numb to it all

Has anybody asked you how it felt to be a star

You made it look so easy and your talent took you far

But you never learned to work that hard

Does the local paper still report on every show you've done

We gave you such a send off when your journey had begun

We all thought you'd spend it in the sun

Give yourself some credit

You've still got as steady gig

You play the hometown superstar

Who never hit it big

Where everyone saw bluebirds

Now it's cloudy in your eyes

Did you trade all your ambition

For those nights of inhibition

To keep you riding high
