Samantha

away from the camera

out of the spotlight

she bottles away all her pain

Samantha trusts no one at all

she’s always moving

doesn’t wanna stick around

she injects the needle into her vein

anything to escape this torment

it relieves the rage

but causes her harm

she’s slipping slowly before fading out

Samantha is taking a bow

a little something for her own

but the beast still holds Samantha

and Samantha dies all alone

she sees her image on a billboard

paranoia kicks in, she’s lost again

can’t stand the fame

but needs to be loved

she falls off the wagon once again

Samantha is taking a bow

a little something for her own

but the beast still holds Samantha

and Samantha dies all alone

and then her star starts to decline

she watches darkness trickle in

the venom of childhood horror

she turns of the light and tries again

Samantha is taking a bow

a little something for her own

but the beast still holds Samantha

and Samantha dies all alone

and then the breaking news

starlet found dead in hotel

the loneliness cornered Samantha

and she died all alone

Samantha died all alone

Samantha died all alone

i pointed picture at today's hollywood culture. they smile and laugh and perform for the camera, but are left alone when they close their doors. probably more alone than you and i.

I totally agree.. some people just aren't meant to hold up under the pressure, of fame.. Dave
