[English]

Watch children cry, the pageant sells the lie

Third place isn't winning, you know

...

Neither is first, the pressure and the thirst

For this skeleton's show

...

I am so thin-skinned, don't scratch the surface

Please let me live within, within this circus

Little dreams come crashing, let them wave in passing

'Cause fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

And you may wish for Oscars, Grammys, and blockbusters

Fame won't love you like a brother, like a lover should

No, oh

...

Fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

Whoa, oh

...

Fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

I searched in your eyes for some glimmer of light

Tap dancing for one million miles

...

I looked for the smiles, oh, hoping in them I'd find

Validation for my futile existence

I am so thin-skinned, don't scratch the surface

Please let me live within, within this circus

Little dreams come crashing, let them wave in passing

'Cause fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

And you may wish for Oscars, Grammys, and blockbusters

'Cause fame won't love you like a brother, like a lover should

No, no

Fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

No, no

Fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

No, whoa

Fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

Whoa, oh

Fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

Whoa

...
