Poison Fallen Angel
She stepped off the bus
out into the city streets
Just a small town girl
with her whole life
packed in a suitcase by her feet
But somehow the lights didn't
shine as bright as they did
on her mama's TV screen
And the work seemed harder
And the days seemed longer
than she ever thought they'd be
But you know you got
to stick to your guns
when it all comes down
'Cause sometimes you can't choose
It's like heads they win
tails you're gonna lose
(chorus)
Win big, Mama's fallen angel
Lose big, livin' out her lies
Wants it all, Mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, rollin'
the dice of her life
Now she found herself in the
fast lane livin' day to day
Turned her back on her
best friends, yeah
And let her family slip away
Just like a lost soul
caught up in the Hollywood scene
all the parties and the limousines
Such a good actress
hiding all her pain
Trading her memories
for fortune and fame
Just a step away from
the edge of a fall
Caught between heaven and hell
Where's the girl I knew a year ago?
(chorus)
Too much too soon?
Or just a little too late?
Cause when her ship came in
she wasn't there and
It just wouldn't wait
(instrumental)
(chorus to fade)
