Rock and Roll Is Dead
Eulogy for Rock Stars: Unraveling the Demons WithinLyrics
You think you're on top of the world
You feel like you're at the peak of success or happiness
But you know it's really over
Despite the appearance, it's truly the end or a downfall
Runnin' round with diamond rings
Engaging in a luxurious lifestyle with expensive jewelry
And coke spoons that are overflowin'
Using drugs excessively, symbolized by overflowing coke spoons
Rock an Roll is dead
Declares that the era of Rock and Roll has ended
But all the money in the world
Despite wealth, you can't escape the consequences of your actions
Can't buy you from the place you're going to
Money cannot save you from the negative outcomes ahead
Rock an Roll is dead
Reiterates the death of Rock and Roll, emphasizing its finality
Rock an Roll is dead
-Rock an Roll is dead
-You can't even sing or play an instrument
Criticizes individuals who lack musical talent but rely on image
So you just scream instead
Expressing emotions through screaming rather than genuine musical skill
You're living for an image
Living a superficial life driven by a constructed public image
So you got five hundred women in your bed
Having numerous sexual relationships, possibly superficial and meaningless
Rock an Roll is dead
Repeats the declaration of the death of Rock and Roll
But it's real hard to be yourself
Acknowledges the difficulty of authenticity in the face of challenges
When you're living with those demons
Struggling with inner demons that affect personal authenticity
In your head
Refers to the internal struggles within one's mind
Rock an Roll is dead
Reiterates the finality of Rock and Roll's demise
Rock an Roll is dead
-Rock an Roll is dead
-Rock an Roll is dead
Continued emphasis on the end of Rock and Roll
Rock an Roll is dead
-Rock an Roll is dead
-Rock an Roll is dead
-Rock an Roll is dead
Final confirmation of the death of Rock and Roll
