i was the star -------------------------------------------
Sunsets were never sober
All the stars where blurry like a Van Gogh
But all the beauty was fake
I believed it all. I bought it all with my plastic heart
Sold my flesh for five more minutes
I got lost in all the glitz and glitter
Breathing nothing but bad perfume and stale smoke
Breathing nothing but dead air
I wanted to make you want me
Even tho I hated you Hated you so much
I thought this was life
But I was dying
Burning on my handcrafted funeral pyre
Lovingly built with each mistake I made
But I was the star I was the star
I was the brightest star
Everyone was staring at me
But the only screams I heard where my own
Hm... I love that painting, one of my all time favorites but in this poem I think this line: "All the stars where blurry like a Van Gogh " actually takes away from the poem rather than adding to it. I would have written it like this:
"Sunsets were never sober
All the stars where blurry in New York
And the beauty was fake
I believed it all."
hmmmm.... so the whole time her fame was only that in her mind?... and she fakes herself out both in trying to make someone angry whom she hates by making him lust after her, ironically leaving herself in more want? crazy...but it works... cuz it is crazy good!
