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 mourning Drown 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 A 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 her Drown 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 When 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 plays Drown 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
