Текст песни
All my life, I’ve been fighting a war
I can’t talk to you or your friends
It’s not only you
My heart jumps around when I’m alluded to This will not do Cause I was raised up to be admired, to be noticed
But when you’re withdrawn
It’s the closest thing to assault when all eyes are on you
This will not do
I’m faking glory
Lick my lips, toss my hair
And turn the smile on And the story’s brand new
But I can take it from here
I’ll find my own bravado
It’s a switch flipped, it’s a pill tipped back, it’s a moon eclipse
And I can tell you that when the lights come on I’ll be ready for this
It’s in your bloodstream, a collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
It’s a marathon run or a mountain you scaled without thinking of size
I was frightened of every little thing that I thought was out to get me down
To trip me up and laugh at me but
I learned not to want the quiet of a room with no one around to find me out
I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go oh
It’s a switch flipped, it’s a pill tipped back, it’s a moon eclipse
And I can tell you that when the lights come on I’ll be ready for this
It’s in your bloodstream, a collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
It’s a marathon run or a mountain you scaled without thinking of size
I was frightened of every little thing that I thought was out to get me down
To trip me up and laugh at me but
I learned not to want the quiet of a room with no one around to find me out
I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go oh
