Fame Will Eat The Soul
Fame will eat the soul and you just can't fake it Fame will eat the soul and your heart will break Fame will eat the soul till you just can't take it no more It doesn't have no meaning when you're out on the street Everyone you see is just trying to compete And you're just trying to act like a normal Joe Drank some darkness, didn't you? Drank some darkness, didn't you? Against the light within you Against the light within you Drank some darkness, didn't you? Drank some darkness, didn't you? Can't get back on the right track Fame will eat the soul down in Hollywood Town Things are goin' swell then you start breakin' down Can't get control when every clown wants to take you down You drank some darkness, didn't you? You drank some darkness, didn't you? Against the light within you Against the love within you You drank some darkness, didn't you? You drank some darkness, didn't you? SongtexteCan't get back on the right track Fame will eat the soul down in Hollywood Town Things are goin' swell then you start to break down You try to keep control, every clown wants to take you down Fame will eat the soul, got to stay in your mansion Fame will eat the soul, you can't take any chances Even when you're outside, have to build a wall around you Got to stop breakin' down Fame will eat the soul till you just can't fake it Fame will eat the soul and your heart's gonna break Fame will eat the soul till you just can't take it no more Take it no more Stop breakin' down Stop breakin' down Stop breakin' down, baby On the killing floor On the killing floor Stop breakin' down Got to stop breakin' down You got to stop breakin' down In Hollywood Town Stop breakin' down in Hollywood Town Stop breakin' down, baby Stop, stop, stop... Stop, stop, stop... Stop breakin' down Stop breakin' down Stop, stop, stop... Stop breakin' down Aus Songtexte Mania
