and what will you do then?
with this status you've begged and pleaded for
with all the fame after all the toil
will you still hold a purity to convey?
or will the process, which brought you a limelight
adulterate the reason anyone thought you should be there?
would you rather be a headliner with nothing to proclaim
or a nobody who embodies the essence of what is admirable?
i want to see you up on that stage, spot lighted as any
yet im taken back as i wonder
who will you become by getting there?
it echoes these halls 'i want to be famous'
your not alone, your plea is common
i dont want to see you then, i think
when you've gotten your wish
a headliner without a headline
and what will you do then?
