to clear up the thing about a friendship, or it being about a boy and a girl, I think you should know that Carah Faye from Shiny Toy Guns is a lesbian. By girlfriend she probably means an actual girlfriend.
It's about someone who is trying to become well-known and infamous, but she ends up losing everything she had in the first place.
"You're an uptown
Falling down
West end girl
Trying to see yourself
Running in a
Number one
Shoot 'em up
Race to edge of the world (to the edge of the world)"
She's trying to see herself up there with the stars and other important people, and she's working hard.
"Come and follow you
Follow down to excess
Return to righteousness
Dancing late at night
Hunting high and low"
there's an expression popular among club kids about excess being the path to righteousness. As many of the 80's club kids learned, that really isn't true. It's a very destructive path. the thing about dancing is probably referring to becoming a stripper or a dancer, which is what most women in hollywood start out doing.
"With your pretty pink bow
Weather girl, where did you go?"
They don't know what happened to her. She isn't the same since she became immersed in the sleazy hollywood scene. They don't know what happened to the girl they loved, because she changed.
