Far beyond was a time of fame, a time of joy But for now, only dark days and nights spent cold and shivering. Working the corner at a quarter to three With nothing but an old friend and some long memories She sits by the roadside with a cup in her hand She'll never stop living the life. CHORUS It's not over, so don't give up the fight It's not over, some day you'll see it right. Though the times you were loved and adored by the crowd Are all gone, it's not over so don't give up the fight. There's no past time that overcomes the fantasies Of a girl With the world in the hands of her sweet melodies All those who loved her have forgotten her name A shadow of a person in some novelty game, But now her sole possession brings her nothing but strife She still can't stop living the life. CHORUS INTERLUDE Far beyond was a time of fame, a time of joy, But for now, only dark days and nights spent cold and shivering. Cold winter nights begin to play with the mind No source of warmth but only her companion besides. It's death or the toy piano burns in the flames, She's got to stop living the life. CHORUS x2
