Paloma Faith – Price Of Fame lyrics

It doesn't matter what you give
It's never enough
You can never have a bad day, girl
'Cause that will be tough for me

It doesn't matter what you say
We'll never believe it
So pour another whiskey, babe
You look great

She was only a woman
Not fit to be a superstar
She carried the burden
A gift that'd cause a thousand scars

She's walking down and failed
To carry such a heavy load

She walked in through darkness
And we stood to watch her go

Didn't see you fade away
But that's the price you pay
Singing through your hurt and pain
Should have been another way

Take it just a bit too late
Don't believe it all, oh
It was the price of fame

So can I get a photograph
Even though you don't want it
I don't care if you got troubles, girl
Just please don't be honest for me

Can you be my laughingstock?
Don't take it so personal
Just pour another whiskey, babe
You look great

She was only a woman
Not fit to be a superstar
She carried the burden
A gift that'd cause a thousand scars

She's walking down and failed
To carry such a heavy load

She walked in through darkness
And we stood to watch her go

Didn't see you fade away
But that's the price you pay
Singing through your hurt and pain
Should have been another way

Take it just a bit too late
Don't believe it all, oh
It was the price of fame

Oh oh oh, didn't see you fade away
But that's the price you pay
Singing through your hurt and pain
Should have been another way

Take it just a bit too late
Don't believe it all, oh
It was the price of fame

Yeah no oh
It was the price of fame
Sing oh oh oh
Price of fame
It was the price of fame
