a flicker in the dark
a trigger snapped
a surprise attack
climax
one set played
smash your guitar
then go backstage
and get laid
hit the top
all the way up
long way down
seek a proper drop
too high
can't fly
just fall - with style
wait a while
let it sink in
drink up
fall out
and stop
known by one name
fifteen minutes of fame
[can't get much better than this]
then it's gone
artists are best remembered
when they're dead anyway
