I’m on a train that doesn’t want to stop
Twist off the cap and shove them down with a pop
There’s a season for everything you know
A season for the dead
A season for this empty head

I’m on a plane that doesn’t want to crash
Hypodermic and placed just beneath this pale flesh
There’s a reason for everything you know
A reason for the hate
A reason for this empty fate

A circle never ends
And I’m never loving you again
A finger never lies
And I’m never pointing at you again

Beneath these golden curls
Is a place for my victim
Beneath these golden curls
Is the place that I jump
But I’ll smile
Each and every mile…

Thank you all for your responses.  When I wrote this, I was really thinking about Marilyn Monroe, or really any famous woman for that matter.  Hollywood; such a destructive topic...so sad.  Thanks all.
