lyrics

Blood on the tracks the night is long
The life you knew has been and gone
Circled in spotlight a lonely throne
Dance to the time of the devils horn

Champagne, cocaine, satin and lace
Face is a mask that will eat your face

She is a star fame is the crown
Burned out broken with the tears of a clown
Blinded by desire sinking like a stone
It’s a long way down you can never go home

We were once like your are now
Feeding off the superficial scraps of fakeness thrown into the crowd

In a million dollar mansion with no real friends
Down and defeated as each day ends
Your naked under the microscope
There ain’t no fire if there ain’t no smoke

Play with matches you will burn
It’s a long way back there’s no return from fame

On display for all the world to see
Starved of attention they can’t breathe
An echo chamber for one voice
Lost in static and noise

You were once like we are now
Feeding off the superficial scraps of fakeness thrown into the crowd

There's nowhere to hide everyone can see
Your latest mistake is on tv
The more you gain the more you lose
Every move you make is front page news

Poison paparazzi photograph of pain
Forever in the mirror the reflection of shame

Blood on the tracks the night is long
The life to me has been and gone
Circled in spotlight a lonely throne
Dance to the time of the devils horn

Champagne, cocaine, satin and lace
Face is a mask that will eat your face
