She stepped off the bus
out into the city streets
Just a small town girl
with her whole life
packed in a suitcase by her feet
But somehow the lights didnt
shine as bright as they did
on her mamas TV screen
And the work seemed harder
And the days seemed longer
than she ever thought theyd be
But you know you got
to stick to your guns
when it all comes down
Cause sometimes you cant choose
Its like heads they win
tails youre gonna lose
Win big, Mamas fallen angel
Lose big, livin out her lies
Wants it all, Mamas fallen angel
Lose it all, rollin
the dice of her life
Now she found herself in the
fast lane livin day to day
Turned her back on her
best friends, yeah
And let her family slip away
Just like a lost soul
caught up in the Hollywood scene
all the parties and the limousines
Such a good actress
hiding all her pain
Trading her memories
for fortune and fame
Just a step away from
the edge of a fall
Caught between heaven and hell
Wheres the girl I knew a year ago?
Too much too soon?
Or just a little too late?
Cause when her ship came in
she wasnt there and
It just wouldnt wait
