The Life of the Party

i went to a party the other night,
it didn't last long
i didn't drink at all and i faked a call,
when a conversation went wrong
i felt chained to the sofa
when everybody else was smoking in the garage
so i left my post when nobody noticed
and skated off into the night
that's not the me i thought id be
the center of attention what everybody sees,
skinny waist, defined jaw
wake up in the morning in a push up bra
that could be me baby
i could have fun
i could sort through a couple white lines
i could learn to have fun
one day ill wake up
stamped in somebody's makeup
tired and hungover
i'll be the life
wired in a downtown diner
drinking coffee in the middle of the night
how long does it take to be a regular
when you cant hold conversation
then some old friends recognize me
they talk and they invite me out
they dont mention my dress, my hair in distress
no nothing, just me
one day ill wake up
stamped in somebodys makeup
tired and hungover
i'll be the life of the party

To Be You

one step on the runway baby, and i could see
she was surely going to be my queen
blonde hair curled with care
cherry red girl yeah you went to my head
how hard could it be to be you?
the day that you left the stage
remembered your real name
i cried
very selfish tears, im sorry
i would throw my life away
for fifteen minutes of fame
i'll let this elevator ride be one
i'd say i should take your advice
but i'm so desperate for attention,
so just take your time
am i just jealous?
i want the pit i wallow in to be glamorous
sparling
i'll ride this velvet limo the devil's eye
is this what its like
to be living my idols life
how low can you go when the world loves you
how high can you be in the camera's shifting view
i would throw my life away
for fifteen minutes fame
or at least so long as my jealousy defines me
i'd say i should take your advice
but my entire life gives me nothing nice
so just please come back
you wont find god on the silver screen
though thats how it may seem
i see a woman looking holy, living my dream,
they see a man trying not to swear on live TV
honey just take yr time
