                            Lana Clarkson  1962-2003.

“People tell me they idolize me, want to be like me, but I tell them, 'trust me, you don't want my life.' I've been a very tortured soul.” Quote by Phil Spector (Found guilty of murdering Lana Clarkson).
You feel like a highflyer. Music being your crutch. Nothing but a cynic liar. You deceive yourself so much. I’ll never get over that fact, That beautiful lady was my friend. Why couldn’t you leave her intact? Her wonderful life you had the end. You thought of yourself as a messiah. You knew you wouldn’t stay. Your ego burned brighter than fire. Was your guardian angel in play? Now you languish in that jail. In your cell you lie alone. Your guards are each prison rail. With remorse for your sins, you can atone. For our poor Lana, your sorry is too late. For you now, all we have is hate. A lifetime in hell is now your fate. And all you can do now is wait.
