lyrics

Am I burning Out or burning bright?
Here I stand alone in the light
Gotta stop and take a stand
I am not just a singer in a band

I can play the star
Yeah, I want to go far
I can't afford to pay this toll
There ain't no price tag on my soul

I would rather be no one's idol
than to feel the way I do
In a world of make believe
It ain't way easy to know what's true

I never meant to hurt you
Certainly not desert you,
Didn't mean to be a stranger
I had to keep you from danger

What can I gain in this game of fame?
I was wrong and I was vain
All this pomp and this circumstance
Can you forget and give another chance?

I would rather be no one's idol
than to feel the way I do
In a world of make believe
It ain't way easy to know what's true
