Backlit Revolver – Spotlight Suicide lyrics

He wants to be the man in the magazine
He's got the pills he wants to be a machine
He's got the mind of the next big thing
But he's wasted he's spaced out gone without a trace
She likes to drive on a highrise in cloudy skies
She thinks that acid is a candy prize
She takes a chance just to be in front
Under the gaze of a glazed crowd, it's just another stunt

Take my time,
Into the limelight
I'm gonna go for a ride
Take my advice
Before the twilight
Gets into your mind

Yeah, you gotta find it
You gotta let go and recognize
Yeah you gotta fight it
Before you end up in a spotlight suicide

You always thought that the drugs you bought
Would change your mind and make you somebody else
Little did you know that they'd deal a blow
And put you out on the street on the cold concrete
She's always backstabbing a knife in her hand
A smiling face all the way to the top of the land
The camera shines as she starts to whine
Next thing you know there goes her show and
She's got nowhere to go

Yeah, you gotta find it
You gotta let go and recognize
Yeah you gotta find it
Before you end up in a spotlight suicide

Take my time,
Into the limelight
I'm gonna go for a ride
Take my advice
Before the twilight
Gets into your mind

I know where you are going
To the end of the road
