A Star Burned Out Tonight (EDITED)

Edited** A Star Burned Out Tonight 

Shes leaving the city tonight 

And I can see it in her eyes 

She left her dreams 

And the Broadway lights behind 

By two red taillights 

And the smoke of a tailpipe 

Shes headed for Hawaii 

And I hear its nice this time of year

Getting her last shot at Redemption 

But I know it's not for everyone 

God I miss her so much

And I wish she were here 

Woman poor woman 

You see yourself very plain

The drugs keep you numb 

But I'd rather feel the pain

You see yourself in a mirror

But it always tells you lies

Underneath the smoke and the mirrors

Dims the brightest light 

She cant hide the scars anymore 

Under the make up beneath

It took everything I had 

To convince her not to leave

Shes giving up the fight 

But she doesn't realize 

The curtains have closed

And a Star Burned Out Tonight
