Sometimes In Life You Feel The Fight Is Over

And It Seems As Through The Writing's On The Wall

Superstar You've Finally Made It

But Once Your Picture Becomes Tainted

It's What They Call The Rise & Fall

(x2)



I Always Said That I Was Gonna Make It

Now It's Plain For Everyone To See

But This Game I'm In Don't Take No Prisoners

Just Casualties, I Know That Everything Is Gonna Change

Even The Friends I Knew Before May Go

But This Dream Is The Life I've Been Searching For

Started Believing That I Was The Greatest

My Life Was Never Gonna Be The Same

'Cos With The Money Came A Different Status

That's When Things Changed

Now I'm Too Concerned With All The Things I Own

Blinded By All The Pretty Girls I See

I'm Beginning To Lose My Integrity



Chorus



I Never Used To Be A Troublemaker

Now I Don't Even Wanna Please The Fans

No Autographes, No Intervieuws, No Pictures

Endless Demands

Gave In To Vices That Were Clearly Wrong

The Types That Seemed To Make Me Feel So Right

But Some Things You May Find Can Take Over Your Life

Burnt All My Bridges Now I've Run Out Of Places

And There's Nowhere Left For Me To Run

Been Caught In Compromising Situations

I Should Have Learned

From All Those Times I Didn't Walk Away

When I Knew That It Was Best To Goe

Is It Too Late To Show You The Shape Of My Heart?



Chorus



Now I Know I've Made Mistakes, You Think I Don't Care

But You Don't Realise What This Means To Me

So Let Me Have Just One More Chance

I'm Not He Man I Used To Be



Chorus/outro (x3)
