It's Hard to Be a Star
What happened was it's hard to be a star
What happened was you just didn't get that far
What happened was it's not complicated
You... didn't make it
You wake up in the dark and slap your face
Sit in a line of cars all heading for nowhere
Find yourself inside of some spreadsheet
A notebook full of ideas but nobody cares
Maybe if you weren't betrayed?
Maybe if you moved to L.A.?
You start to nod off sitting at the bar
The conversations dull, the bourbon's lost its charm
An old friend takes the stage, plays a tired song
There's a star tattoo fading on his arm
Maybe if he had better hair?
Maybe if the talent were there?
What happened was it's hard to be a star
What happened was you just didn't get that far
What happened was it's not complicated
You... didn't make it
It's fine to tell the children "Follow your dreams"
But grow up kid you should know what that really means by now
You wake up with an ashtray in your bed
Call in sick and waste the day on nothing real
Find a new chord change and a melody
Dance like no one's watching cuz they never will
This is what you wanna do
Until the end of you
What happened was it's hard to be a star
What happened was you just didn't get that far
What happened was it's not complicated
You... will never make it
What happened was you just didn't get that far
What happened was it's not complicated
You... didn't make it
You wake up in the dark and slap your face
Sit in a line of cars all heading for nowhere
Find yourself inside of some spreadsheet
A notebook full of ideas but nobody cares
Maybe if you weren't betrayed?
Maybe if you moved to L.A.?
You start to nod off sitting at the bar
The conversations dull, the bourbon's lost its charm
An old friend takes the stage, plays a tired song
There's a star tattoo fading on his arm
Maybe if he had better hair?
Maybe if the talent were there?
What happened was it's hard to be a star
What happened was you just didn't get that far
What happened was it's not complicated
You... didn't make it
It's fine to tell the children "Follow your dreams"
But grow up kid you should know what that really means by now
You wake up with an ashtray in your bed
Call in sick and waste the day on nothing real
Find a new chord change and a melody
Dance like no one's watching cuz they never will
This is what you wanna do
Until the end of you
What happened was it's hard to be a star
What happened was you just didn't get that far
What happened was it's not complicated
You... will never make it
