It's a crime against humanity, You're not worth anybody's time but mine. When soceity shoved you to the side, You just tried to get back into the game. I've lived here on the sidelide my whole life, It's not so bad after a while. They made a movie of your life, But Ebert never ever watched it. And now your time in the spotlight is done, So stop to look at the beauty that light forgot. I stopped breathing for you, but you never knew that I was breathing in the first place. I was first in line for these tickets, I can't wait to watch you fall. Wouldn't you even glace at others who haven fallen too? Written March 2nd, 2002 © on Mar 01 2002 04:33 PM PST   10 • 0
