Spotlight (Demo) Songtext
von Papa Roach

Everyone′s dying for the spotlight
And everyone is trying to show their best life
Go!

She don't care, she′s lost, she just wants to be accepted
She ain't got no love, love, no
She don't want no truth
Yeah, she just craves attention
And that′s all she knows, knows

She starves herself, cause skinny means that you′re pretty
But she hates herself, she wants to cry, but she holds it in
She cuts herself just to feel alive, it's not alright

Everyone′s dying for the spotlight
And everyone is trying to show their best life
Aren't you over it? Over that?
I know it′s hard to feel
'Cause I had enough, I′m over that
Show me that you're real


I think she's headed for a meltdown
I know it′s painful ′cause
I've been there myself
Don′t sit in silence in your shame now
'Cause I′m a wreck
Just like everyone else
And I confess that I am a mess

And I hate myself for everything that I've done to me
And I lived through hell, I pushed the button, so self-destructive
Can′t help myself, I'm not afraid to be vulnerable and uncomfortable
Because it's all that I know

Everyone′s dying for the spotlight
And everyone is trying to show their best life
Aren′t you over it? Over that?
I know it's hard to feel
′Cause I had enough, I'm over that
Show me that you′re real

Everyone's dying for the spotlight
And everyone is trying to show their best life
Aren′t you over it? Over that?
I know it's hard to feel
'Cause I had enough, I′m over that
Show me that you′re real
Just show me that you're real


I′m not afraid to be
Vulnerable and uncomfortable
Because it's all that I know
It′s all that I know!
I'm not afraid to be vulnerable and uncomfortable

Everyone′s dying for the spotlight
And everyone is trying to show their best life
Aren't you over it? Over that?
I know it's hard to feel
′Cause I had enough, I′m over that
Show me that you're real

Everyone′s dying for the spotlight
And everyone is trying to show their best life
Aren't you over it? Over that?
I know it′s hard to feel
'Cause I had enough, I′m over that
Show me that you're real
Just show me that you're real
Show me that you′re real
