Could've Been a Star Songtext
von Suki Waterhouse

You talk down to me pretty bad
I edit things you say when I tell my friends about it
But when they′re in my head, sometimes I recognize
There might be a little truth to it
I can't live this way, always on the back foot
Say he′s been back in LA that makes me anxious
Behind the canyon of my ego, I know it's just my sadness

Crashin', makin′ memories of madness
Laughin′ so hard I can't stand it
Classic, all I′m good at is ruining you
Vanish, disappear like a hat trick
Laughing, like some old washed up has-been
Actress, my best work is ruining you
I could've been a star (ooh)
I could′ve been a star (ooh)


Might be a little darker than I pretended and maliciously intended to hurt you
I wish that nothing was buried under the surface and maybe I could properly love you
Can't say I′m proud but I'm still fond of our youth
You came into my story and let me rule you
I swear I didn't mean to break all hell loose

Crashin′, makin′ memories of madness
Laughin' so hard I can′t stand it
Classic, all I'm good at is ruining you
Vanish, disappear like a hat trick
Laughing, like some old washed up has-been
Actress, my best work is ruining you
I could′ve been a star

It's certain death, to know what I′m after (ooh)
I could've been a star
Whirling like a natural disaster (ooh)
I could've been a star
I lost all control and I can′t stand you (ooh)
I could′ve been a star
Who I am, yeah, baby, I
I could've been a star
