Stars that shined so dull

A little song I wrote in a few minutes; enjoy:

Stars that shined so dull

I was a clown and I was a fool
Chasing stars that shined so dull
People told me but I was so blind
Feigning happiness, ignoring what I'd find

[chorus]
I was a fool, oh yes, I was a fool
Pretending I was happy, being her tool
I was a fool, yes, such a fucking fool
Pretending I was happy, being her little tool

Playing her little games, cheering her petty mind
Sacrificing what was left of me, to make our love survive
I'd put all the effort in, she couldn't try at all
A one sided relationship, it was our downfall

[guitar "solo"]

She used to smile so much, at the sight of me
But steadily that smile faded so, gone eventually
The little things we shared, like simply holding hands
They meant less to her, she had other plans

[chorus]

Slowly we drifted apart, she refused to try
And slowly this poor clown, watched his love die
But now a new chapter starts, one with a star that shines
Who knows what awaits, what treasures I will find

I was a clown and I was a fool
Chasing stars that shined so dull
But not again, I'll find something great
You will see, something great for me
