--LYRICS--

The film is all about you
Your genius rules the world
Soul-hungry lenses
Flash into a swirl
You’ve hungered for this moment
Since you were a child
Now they all love you
Because you’re free and wild

You’ve risen above
All the rest
Transcended your history
To become the best
Now you’re worshipped
Not human anymore
A star in the heavens
A crackhead and a whore

Curtains and shadows
Are things of the past
No walks down Main Street
Or silent epitaphs
A sinking feeling
Down in your soul
I could have told you
Your story’s so old

You’ve risen above
All the rest
Transcended your history
To become the best
Now you’re worshipped
Not human anymore
A star in the heavens
A crackhead and a whore

Lives that were traded
A wake of blood
Dreams that were crushed
Down in the mud
Your ticket now takes you anywhere
They always told us
Life ain’t fair

You’ve risen above
All the rest
Transcended your history
To become the best
Now you’re worshipped
Not human anymore
A star in the heavens
A crackhead and a whore

Oh, oh, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh

You left the fortress
Arms filled with gold
Pill from the mystics to
Keep from getting old
Robbed on the highway and
Now it’s all gone
How will you learn
How to go on
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

It’s all about you
It’s all about you, oh, oh
It’s all about you

about

Atomic Shotgun New York, New York

If Dave Grohl and a 60’s-Era Grace Slick made sweaty, hot nookie in the back of a borrowed pickup truck on a random dusty shoulder off Route 66, the resulting spawn would be named Atomic Shotgun.
