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
