Brightest Star lyrics

Standing tall in the spotlight

Looking out through the footlights

Hear the roaring of the crowd

And your whole world is turnin'

Spinnin' faster and faster

As you try to keep up now

One more line to hit the stage

One more drink to kill the rage

You find it's buildin' up inside you now

And the brightest star burns fastest

Like a candle burning at both ends

But the curtain falls on an empty stage

As the brightest star fades away

Fades away

Oh, yeah

There's a hunger inside

From which no one can hide

Still, you try to keep control

You don't know what you need

But you want more and more

But you just can't let it go

Another dark and empty night

With no one there to hold you tight

And keep you back from falling off the edge

And the brightest star burns fastest

Like a candle burning at both ends

But the curtain falls on an empty stage

As the brightest star fades away

Fades away

One more line to hit the stage

One more drink to kill the rage

You find it's buildin' up inside you now

And the brightest star burns fastest

Like a candle burning at both ends

But the curtain falls on an empty stage

As the brightest star fades away

Fades away
