When you went out on tour five years ago
You were just like us
But now that you re back
You think you re bigger than life
A couple of pop tunes and you think you re better than me?
Your songs are on the radio
But what they lack is honesty
I m talking about life here; mine not yours
You re crying about the girl
That walked right out the door

I remember sitting up in my room
Listening to your song
Coming through in stereo
I remember when it used
To mean something to you
But now it s hard to believe
That you mean this at all

Flashing lights up on the marquee
No tickets at the door
Kids lines up since 2 to see your show
It still makes me wonder
Why they care so much
I don t think I ll ever know
And all the backstage parties
The fame, the fortune
All the people you know
Am I backstage with you, or
Am I left out in the cold
All access passes and guest lists
You re unavailable
You have forgotten about your friends

I remember sitting up in my room
Listening to your song
Coming through in stereo
I remember when it used
To mean something to you
But now it s hard to believe
That you mean this at all

You have forgotten about your friends

I remember sitting up in my room
Listening to your song
Coming through in stereo
I remember when it used
To mean something to you
But now it s hard to believe
That you mean this at all
