Fame Will Eat The Soul

(album: Three Chords And The Truth - 2019)

Fame will eat the soul and you just can't fake it
Fame will eat the soul and your heart will break
Fame will eat the soul till you just can't take it no more

It doesn't have no meaning when you're out on the street
Everyone you see is just trying to compete
And you're just trying to act like a normal Joe

Drank some darkness, didn't you?
Drank some darkness, didn't you?
Against the light within you
Against the light within you
Drank some darkness, didn't you?
Drank some darkness, didn't you?
Can't get back on the right track

Fame will eat the soul down in Hollywood Town
Things are going swell then you start breaking down
Can't get control when every clown wants to take you down

You drank some darkness, didn't you?
You drank some darkness, didn't you?
Against the light within you
Against the love within you
You drank some darkness, didn't you?
You drank some darkness, didn't you?
Can't get back on the right track

Fame will eat the soul down in Hollywood Town
Things are going swell then you start to break down
You try to keep control, every clown wants to take you down

Fame will eat the soul, got to stay in your mansion
Fame will eat the soul, you can't take any chances
Even when you're outside, have to build a wall around you

Got to stop breaking down
Fame will eat the soul till you just can't fake it
Fame will eat the soul and your heart's gonna break
Fame will eat the soul till you just can't take it no more
Take it no more
Stop breaking down
Stop breaking down
Stop breaking down, baby
On the killing floor
On the killing floor
Stop breaking down
Got to stop breaking down
You got to stop breaking down
In Hollywood Town
Stop breaking down in Hollywood Town
Stop breaking down, baby
Stop, stop, stop...
Stop, stop, stop...
Stop breaking down
Stop breaking down
Stop, stop, stop...
Stop breaking down
