Faces that were never seen   Laid down in the street   Crying at your feet   Stardom that had never been   How unfair it seems   A land of broken dreams      Back then you had it all   Laid out on a silver platter   Now you can’t take the fall   You thought none of this would matter   But you were wrong      You used to be adored and admired   Like a chiselled god   Made out of precious gold   Now it seems like no-one cares   To you your friends are dead   That fame went to your head      Back then you had it all   Sold yourself to those who bought you   Now you can’t take the fall   None of what they said was true   And you were mislead      Now you feel the end is nigh   The brown stuff took its toll   You’re back on the dole   Your youth was just an endless high   But how you feel the wake   Drives through you like a stake
