Limelight Songtext
I will shine

limelight

peace of mind

staggered steps

I sip cherry wine
feeling fine

I was blind

thought I had it all

In a daze

twisted maze

just a phase

contemplating stages of rage

it's my name

I'm to blame

rearrange this fame


I just want to be

my closest enemy

for life...'til death I part

this world of dying dreams

I smile and so it seems it's ok



I'm falling in a hole that I've made

my mind's not right

my eyesights brighter in the shade



40 sides

my design

so divine

blackened razorblade

I've got to get away

tonight

put my cellophane

on ice

run between the lines

despise

everything I've learned in life

I'm alone in this fucking place

wipe this look off my fucking face

only living, you segregate

everything that burns inside



One step to my final rest

loaded chrome pointed at my chest

insane since I failed your test

drama on my mind the stress

put me under, against the wall

ever seen a proud man fall?



limelight



I'm falling in a hole that I've made

my mind's not right

my eyesights brighter in the shade



You thought I smiled

guess you thought wrong

cigarette stains burn this song

all this time, thought I was strong

all this time, thought we'd move on

now I'm trapped with no room to breathe

jealousy pulling on my sleeve

all this shit's inside of me



All this time, I was mine

all this time, thought I had it all

all this time, I was mine

all this time, thought I had it all



I am inside

you are outside

in my mind I can reconnect illusions

I am so high

so high

so high



...prepared to meet my failure, still I rise.
