Lyrics:

Marquee

Cierra Cinti

VERSE 1

Nobody cares for me
I daydream in misery
It seems like I’ll never be
Someone they would line up to see

Maybe it’s vanity
Wrapped up in fantasy
Regardless, I still believe
Remembrance is all that I need

PRECHORUS 1

I guess I got tired of floating through life
To sit here and cry is a waste of my time

CHORUS 1

Put my name on the marquee
Put my name on the marquee
Spell it out in the bright lights
Light the pavement like dynamite

Put my name on the marquee
Way up high so they all know me
Spell it out in the bright lights
Light the pavement like dynamite

VERSE 2

Alone with the taste of gin
Playing dress-up godforsaken
In a gown laid with gold sequins
But this vision of fortune begins to weaken
As the sequins are leaving red marks on my skin

PRECHORUS 2

I guess I’m just tired of floating through life
I won’t sit here and cry, that’s a waste of my time

CHORUS 2

Put my name on the marquee
Put my name on the marquee
Spell it out in the bright lights
Light the pavement like dynamite

Put my name on the marquee
Way up high so they all know me
Spell it out in the bright lights
Light the pavement like dynamite

BRIDGE

I’m ready to hit center stage, this is my curtain call
A story unsung is a life without meaning at all
I wanna be loved want to make it big-time
I’m a standing ovation away from what’s mine

CHORUS 3

Put my name on the marquee
Put my name on the marquee
Spell it out in the bright lights
Light the pavement like dynamite

Put my name on the marquee
Way up high so they all know me
Spell it out in the bright lights
Light the pavement like dynamite
