Hannah Marcus Stars From The Side
She permits herself unbounded sprays of rage
Like a monkey in a cage filled with razor blades
And you sit and watch them from the aisles
Giving out your free advice, watching from backstage
So you see your stars from the side
Look at these, your stars from the side
He grabs her by the wrist and shakes his fist
And then after that they kiss, then they both get pissed
And then it's time to say f..ck you and leave
And after maybe to grieve that it's come to this
All the while you see your stars from the side
Look at these, your stars from the side
He lied, she cried, he's tired, she's high
Help me, I'm yours
I can't do nothing tonight
I got a fever so high
Help me decide if there's still a point
In being your friend
'Cause it's costing much more
Than I can spend right now
And I don't want to be cruel
I don't want to be your fool
Neither I don't want to take the bait
But to leave you in that state
Hey, you leave me nothing, nothing
Nothing to do but walk away
Don't you think I know what it's like
To feel ugly and tired
Seeing you there like a star from the side
In my rear view mirror with your head
In your hands on sunset
Hey, don't you know what it's like
To be a mirror unseen
A bit part in someone else's bad dream
I've played my part in your b-movie
Long enough, long enough, long enough
Why don't you open your eyes and see me
Everything's comin' up roses
