Superstar

There's an empty space in the chair tonight

'Cause he don't feel right

There are storm clouds brewing at the back of his mind

As he steps outside

He will be 20 in a week but he's old for his years

He's had many of those to confront his own fears

'Cause his father's not the man he'd like to grow up to be

And his mother isn't growin' old gracefully

He said, times like these I don't want to be a superstar

'Cause reality TV killed them all in America

Though the sun always shines in the magazines

Tonight can we be free to be who we really are?

There's an empty space between the lines tonight

And it burns so bright

And the angry silence that he throws on the floor

Says he don't care anymore

He had money for the truth but love's a lot more

The answer's not the one he was lookin' for

And his father's not the man he'd like to grow up to be

And his mother is his mother reluctantly

He said, times like these I don't want to be a superstar

'Cause reality TV killed them all in America

Though the sun always shines in the magazines

Tonight can we be free to be who we really are?

He said, times like these I don't want to be a superstar

'Cause reality TV killed them all in America

Though the sun always shines in the magazines

Tonight can we be free to be who we really are?

He said, times like these I don't want to be a superstar

'Cause reality TV killed them all in America

Though the sun always shines in the magazines

Tonight can we be free to be who we really are?
