Gilly Slinn mitunes songs
More idle speculation from me. So - what happens to all the one-hit wonders from the TV talent shows when their “Twenty Minutes” is up?
Long Way Down
Here I go again throwing snowballs at the moon
Singing the same old songs in the same old beer-soaked basement rooms.
I am tired and I am hungry - but I can only wait and see
If those drunken fools on their bar-room stools
Remember who I used to be.
I had it all - as good as it gets - how quick the applause how soon they forget
Losing it all - it’s a long way down.
I rose like a rocket to the heavens on Saturday night TV
They called me the golden girl - the fastest meteoric rise in history
Now I am fragile I am frozen - I stand on precarious ground
From the top of the tree to the bottom of the barrel
Is a hell of a long way down.
I had it all as good as it gets - how soon the applause how soon they forget
Losing it all - it’s a long way down.
Blow your horn and the walls come a’tumbling down
It’s the nature of the game
The higher you fly the harder you hit the ground
You’ll never be the same again.

The higher you fly the harder you hit the ground
You’ll never be the same again.
You take your chance - top of the bill - if you don't take it then someone else will - losing it all ...
Losing it all - again and again - feeling your soul disappear down the drain
Losing it all - it’s a long way down.
Losing it all - again and again - feeling your soul disappear down the drain
Losing it all - it’s a long way down.
