   Her dream was to shine on the screen

Thought that was why she was born

Left all behind without a fear inside

But sometimes there's no lucky star to help you

Sun will go down, and she's all alone

Can't help but feel insecure

She'll never stop, the way to the top

Is more than she had bargained for

Can't find a reason to keep on trying

Turn out the light, 'cause deep in the night

She's like the thousands before

Hold out your hand, there's hope at the end

But be careful what you wish for

Wasting your chances, destroying your dreams
