Ephemeral Fame: A Dark Tale of Celebrity Desperation
Lyrics
I want to be a supermodel
I aspire to be a supermodel.
I want to be a celebrity
I aspire to be a celebrity.
I want to be your perfect product
I want to be the ideal product in your eyes.
Stocked on the shelves of eternity
Desire to be a lasting presence, like a product on eternal shelves.
It’s all you live for
The pursuit of these aspirations consumes one's life.
Now you’ve had your fifteen minutes
Referencing the end of a brief fame period.
Pushed us past attention’s limit
Fame-seeking has exceeded the limits of attention.
Now your fame’s rapidly waning
Fame is diminishing rapidly.
Your existence is so draining
The person's existence is emotionally draining.
Now not even worth the hatred
No longer even worth the hatred received.
Sense of self exaggerated
The sense of self is exaggerated.
None will say you died too soon
No one will say the person died too soon.
Your funeral’s just an empty room
The funeral is devoid of mourners.
You try
Despite efforts...
You lie
Untruthful actions.
You die
Resulting in death.
And still you will not be remembered
Despite dying, the person won't be remembered.
Got no talent it don’t matter
Talent is irrelevant; seeking admiration is the goal.
You’ll give the adoration that I crave
Willing to sacrifice oneself for desired attention.
Reduce myself to just an image
Reducing self to a mere image.
Shove my soul in a shallow grave
Choosing a shallow existence.
It’s all you live for
Reiteration of living for the pursuit of attention.
Begging strangers for devotion
Begging strangers for affection, but it's easily dismissible.
You're a dismissible notion
The person is seen as inconsequential.
Every phrase you’ve ever stated
Everything said is absorbed and repeated without genuine emotion.
Consumed and regurgitated
Expressions are recycled.
Overshare you feign affliction
Faking suffering for attention.
You’ve become your own addiction
Becoming addicted to one's own persona.
Only live for what’s been tried
Life is only lived based on what's familiar.
Frivolity personified
Frivolity is the embodiment of the person.
You try
Despite efforts...
You lie
Untruthful actions.
You die
Resulting in death.
And still you will not be remembered
Despite dying, the person won't be remembered.
I want to have a lasting impact
Desire for a lasting impact and legacy.
I want to have a legacy
Aspiring for a memorable legacy.
I want to be your president
Aspiration to be a powerful and revered figure.
A deified identity
Seeking to be deified and immortalized.
It’s all you live for
Reiteration of living for power and recognition.
Now you’ve had your share of power
Having experienced power but facing consequences.
Russian moles and golden showers
References to controversial actions and scandals.
Say the things that inbred drinking
Mentions saying offensive things.
Racist fucks were only thinking
Implying racist and inappropriate thoughts.
Say you’d get away with murder
Claiming to escape consequences for extreme actions.
We can’t stop you pushing further
Persisting in pushing boundaries.
But the backlash you provoke
Anticipating negative reactions.
Will prove your life’s a fucking joke
The consequences will reveal the emptiness of life.
You try
Despite efforts...
You lie
Untruthful actions.
You die
Resulting in death.
And still you will not be remembered
Despite dying, the person won't be remembered.
