A Step Towards Fame

I've sent away angels that came

cared not to fall over affection

to make a name for oneself, mate

kill everyone, they said, that ever loved you

they hold you back from your fate

I can feel the reason why

you're tossing and why you're turning tonight

I can feel the reason why

you're holding on a burnt hope tonight

no one to blame

there's nothing to gain

you have to feed the fire

that is hidden inside you

you need to swallow the pain

and take a step towards fame

trust when we say

"they will always love you"

look now where all has led me to

trade love for lust

bitten by mouths and stung by tongues

what a way to go down

I can feel the reason why

you're calling in the middle of the night

and I can feel the reason why

you're sharpening the blade tonight

no one to blame

it's so hard to tame

the void that grows inside

cold steel that cuts through

it's so much the pain

I guess it is all part of the game

but please remember

I've always loved you
