She tripped and fell year after year
before learning just how to overcome it
For years she let them talk for her,
they said that after all she was mourningDrown it out, break the rules
It's a black tar road, but I'll be your shoes
You're a star and they're missing you in the nighttimeA girl who once wore evening gowns
was now intent to wear a frown for showing
Emotion, common sense aside,
she chose to let the world revolve around herDrown it out, break the rules
It's a black tar road, but I'll be your shoes
You're a star and they're missing you in the nighttimeWhen the nighttime falls into place
You'll see a smile crawl on her face
She's leaving now without a trace
She's going where the music playsDrown it out, break the rules
It's a black tar road, but I'll be your shoes
You're a star and they're missing you in the nighttime
