Fame

Fame


I shed my tears where none can see
A silent vigil, safe from me
Devoid of life
Devoid of pain
But in the end, everything remains the same

Underneath the neon glow, living in the limelight
The world will spin, And time will pass away
But the lustre fades, and the fame won't last
In another way, you know your time will pass
In this world of glass

I shed my tears where none can see
A silent vigil, safe from me
Devoid of life
Devoid of pain
I close my eyes and turn away
From the light at the centre of the stage
Back to the arms that hold me now so close
But in the end, everything remains the same

Travelling down this road alone, a solitary boundary
They scream and yell, But you know they'll never care
And the lustre fades, the dream won't last
Sleepin' alone, ignored, unloved, replaced
They'll never notice anyways

I shed my tears where none can see
A silent vigil, safe from me
Devoid of life
Devoid of pain
I close my eyes and turn away
From the light at the centre of the stage
Back to the arms that hold me now so close

I'm screaming so loud in my mind
But it's not like they care or even see what's inside
And it's not like they hear the things that you say
While they watch you slipping away

As the engine dulls and moans, so far away from home
As the roar of the crowd dies down and fades
Now the lustre's gone, and the time has come
Behind the wheel, ride towards the desert sun
Back to my only one

I shed my tears where none can see
A silent vigil, safe from me
Devoid of life
Devoid of pain
I close my eyes and turn away
From the light at the centre of the stage
Back to the arms that hold me now so close

I shed my tears where none can see
A silent vigil, safe from me
Devoid of life
Devoid of pain
But in the end, everything remains the same
