Fallen Angel

She stepped off the bus

Out into the city streets

She's just a small town girl

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, 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

A heads they win, tails you're gonna lose

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

She found herself

In the fast lane livin' day to day

Turned her back on her best friend, yeah

And watched her family slip away

She's just like a lost soul caught up in that Hollywood scene

All the parties, all them limousines

She's 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

No, she's caught between heaven and hell

I said where's the girl I knew a year ago

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

Too much too soon

Or just a little too late

'Cause when her ship came in

She wasn't there [Incomprehensible]

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

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
