At the end of the day the end of the light She keeps the remains of all of her foes Miranda is dying with all of her might She never come she always goes She sticks the camera right into her arm Anything to forget what the trouble's about It causes her pain that's part of the charm She's down for the count then finally out Miranda is taking the stars down A little something to call her own But the lion still rules Miranda And Miranda is always alone She sees her face in another magazine And the walls all close in as the fancy takes flight Can't stand to be loved but she loves to be seen She slips down headlong into the night Miranda is taking the stars down A little something to call her own But the lion still rules Miranda And Miranda is always alone And then all at once the sun starts to rise She sees her father holding her down Oh the daylight is poison to her eyes She slips down the shade and lets herself drown Miranda is taking the stars down A little something to call her own But the lion still rules Miranda And Miranda is always alone The lights shot down the marina all across her safety zone But loneliness follows Miranda and Miranda is always alone
