Fallen Angel Lyrics - On The Cover Ii - Mxpx

She stepped off the bus out into the city streets 

Just a small town girl with her whole life 

Packed in a suitcase by her feet 

But somehow the lights didn't shine 

As bright as they did on her mama's TV screen 

And the work seemed harder and the days seemed longer 

Than she ever thought they'd be 

But you know you got to stick to your guns when it all comes down 

'Cause sometimes you can't choose 

It's like heads they win and tails you're gonna lose 

Win big, mama's fallen angel 

Lose big, livin' out her lies 

Wants it all, mama's fallen angel 

Lose it all rollin' the dice of her life 

Now she found herself in the fast lane livin' day to day 

Turned her back on her best friends, yeah 

And let her family slip away 

Just like a lost soul caught up in the Hollywood scene 

All the parties and the limousines 

Such a good actress hiding all of her pain 

Trading her memories for fortune and fame 

Just a step away from the edge of a fall 

Caught between heaven and hell 

Where's the girl I knew a year ago? 

Win big, mama's fallen angel 

Lose big, livin' out her lies 

Wants it all, mama's fallen angel 

Lose it all rollin' the dice of her life 

Too much too soon or just a little too late 

'Cause when her ship came in 

She wasn't there and it just wouldn't wait 

Win big, mama's fallen angel 

Lose big, livin' out her lies 

Wants it all, mama's fallen angel 

Lose it all rollin' the dice of her life 

Win big, mama's fallen angel 

Lose big, livin' out her lies 

Wants it all, mama's fallen angel 

Lose it all rollin' the dice of her life
