Life and Death of a Rock 'n Roll Star
by Mark Mathis

Album: Secret In This Town

I was looking for a revolution
I was looking for a chance to start again
with you my friend

I was looking for a grassroots movement
One that's peaceful and non-partisan
do they exist

But oh. what a feeling
when you were driving in your car
And when you were singing
Nobody cared who you are

I was looking for a restitution
all those years in college that I spent
looking for you

I was looking for a long-haired groupie
someone to tell me that I was important
And that I wasnt alone

But oh, what a feeling
When you strapped on your guitar
And when you were playing
You could forget who you are

I was looking for a new solution
maybe if I went on tour again
I could pretend

That I was in a crowd that adored me
listened closely - hung on every word
mouthing them back to me

But oh, what a feeling
When they laid you in the ground
In the summer, off a country road
yeah, some say the saw you smile
