Screaming With a Broken Voice


She never made it to center stage
Her face never owned Cosmo's front page


She still sings to the tattered steering wheel
It's the only way she knows how to deal



That dream burned away in the flames
Her life's hard work smoldered by rain


Three decades have come and now went
No replies to the audition tapes sent


She yells into the steering wheel
Her heart wishes it couldn't feel



Ambition lingers in the smoke
Her mind is strong, but heart is broke



Clouding her sight, masking the day
The life she wants just blows away



Through pity tears she sings on more
Where is that stage she's searching for



When she was young, the world was vast
Flames have engulfed her dream, at last
