Price Of Fame

(Album: Hindsight 2020, Vol. 2: Price Of Fame - 2021)

A thousand miles on a lonely road
Chasing a song on the radio
Taking a chance before the chance is gone
Grab a shooting star, do your best to hang on, 'cause
Price of fame's an expensive thing

Wasted youth on booze and smoky bars
Cover up the pain with tattoos and scares
Harding up your heart just to survive
All but sell your soul just to get by

The price of fame is an expensive thing
You're gonna pay if you play this game, boy
All these dreams, no they don't come cheap
Everything you sew you may never reap
The price of fame's an expensive thing
The price of fame's an expensive thing

There's a whole lot of me that I've had to give away
But there's so much more I won't let 'em take
I've lived through the fire, paid for my mistakes
I might bend but I'm never gonna break

'Cause the price of fame's an expensive thing
You're gonna pay if you play this game, boy
All these dreams, no they don't come cheap
Everything you sew you may never reap
Price of fame's an expensive thing
Price of fame's an expensive thing
