best in show!

the longer i ignored him, the brighter i shined.

and i stumbled and fumbled up stairs in my unzipped boots.  i cheers-ed to people people i didn't know in empty glasses.  but i was comfortable and i was happy.  i was only acting as a favor to a friend.

the tables turned, and they were the one with secrets.  they were putting on a show.  diana ross said you shine bright and put a starred crown on my head.
