79

It's not for the fame
It's not for the gold
The boy had a story that yearned to be told
It's not for the coins
It's not for the clout
The girl had a yearning to break the hell out
Break the the hell out

Desperate for attention at the Hollywood convention
Cracked in the head, premature intervention
He wanted so badly to be somebody
Tearing through New York with no money
Searching out the stars in tenement bars
Drunk on ambition and afraid of nobody
Caught in the swirl of a current so muddy
He looked over the edge and saw her coming

In the darkest of days
He crawled out of the maze

It's not for the fame
It's not for the gold
The boy had a story that yearned to be told
It's not for the coins
It's not for the clout
The girl had a yearning to break the hell out
To break the the hell out

Performing to a crowd indifferent and loud
At the Hollywood confessional, heart in the clouds
Raised in Manhattan, glitter and satin
She danced with Abandon to advance her status
Ignoring all offers from confident paupers
Ready for action and craving somebody
She jumped off the heights into a stream unstudied
Only to discover they were both still running

In the darkest of days
She crawled out of the maze

It's not for the fame
It's not for the gold
The boy had a story that yearned to be told
It's not for the coins
It's not for the clout
The girl had a yearning to break the hell out
To break the the hell out

It's not for the fame
It's not for the clout
Break the hell out
Break the hell out
