Destroyed By Fame

We used to be real close
we used to be the best of friends
everything was so perfect..
but all good things come to an end

first you found an agent
who just swept you away
leaving me with time to think
about you more each day

but it didn't bother me so much
that we were losing precious time
because when we were together
you were still the same great guy

but as time time went on..
you charm got fake and cheap
i tried so hard to find you
but just couldn't dig that deep

cause TV was your new life
i saw you on it all the time
always wishing i had said more to you
like please don't leave me behind

so i tried to call you
and say i miss you so much
that i want to see your smile
and feel your warming touch

but your phone just kept on ringing
and there was never a call back
then i got scared to call again
because so much time had passed

Now, even if we meet again
at home or some big show
i could walk right past your face
and you wouldn't even know

because your not the guy you used to be
not one good things the same
now your just a memory...
a great guy destroyed by [f a m e]
