Verse 1
She stepped off the bus out into the city streets
Just a small town girl with her whole life
Packed in a suitcase by her feet
But somehow the lights didnt
Shine as bright as they did
On her mamas tv screen
And the work seemed harder
And the days seemed longer
Than she ever thought theyd be
Bridge
But you know you got to stick to your guns
When it all comes down
Cause sometimes you cant choose
Its like heads they win
Tails youre gonna lose
Chorus
Win big, mamas fallen angel
Lose big, livin out her lies
Wants it all, mamas fallen angel
Lose it all, rollin the dice of her life
Verse 2
Now she found herself in the fast lane livin day
to day
Turned her back on her best friends, yeah
And let her family slip away
Just like a lost soul
Caught up in the Hollywood scene
All the parties and the limousines
Such a good actress hiding all her pain
Trading her memories for fortune and fame
Bridge
Just a step away from the edge of a fall
Caught between heaven and hell
Wheres the girl I knew a year ago
Chorus
Too much too soon
Or just a little too late
Cause when her ship came in
She wasnt there and it just wouldnt wait
Solo, chorus out
