With every word I write
There's so much venom on my tongue
For better or for worse
You've earned each and every word
I wasted so much time
It took so long for me
To realize this is who you are and all you'll ever be is
A coward and a quitter
I'm not afraid to call you out
You see you're not the only one
Who knows how to run their mouth
Once in a while
Here in the spotlight
It's easy to forget all you are
(Don't be surprised)
No matter what your friends say
Once in a while
Here in the spotlight
It's easy to forget all you are
(Well don't be surprised)
No matter what your friends say
(You're not a star)
With every single sentence
You make it crystal clear
That all you ever wanted was to see us beg, my dear
We didn't shatter into pieces
We didn't fade away
And now your best decision just became your worst mistake
Talk to me I dare you
I've got everything to prove
Once in a while
Here in the spotlight
It's easy to forget all you are
(Don't be surprised)
No matter what your friends say
Once in a while
Here in the spotlight
It's easy to forget all you are
(Well don't be surprised)
Smile and wave
We keep those cameras flashing
Swallow your pride if you can pry your foot from mouth
Keep those cameras rolling, you're not gonna wanna miss this
I wish you'd burn the fuck out
Or fade away, just don't exist
Once in a while
Here in the spotlight
It's easy to forget all you are
Once in a while
Here in the spotlight
It's easy to forget all you are
(Don't be surprised)
No matter what your friends say
Once in a while
Here in the spotlight
It's easy to forget all you are
(Well don't be surprised)
No matter what your friends say
(You're not a star)
