  • It's all a game
    You're not the same
    Your famous name
    The price of fame

    Oh no, try to liberate me
    I said oh no, stay and irritate me
    I said oh no, try to elevate me
    I said oh no, just a fallen hero

    Don't want to hear about the drugs you're taking
    Don't want to read about the love you're making
    Don't want to hear about the lives you're faking
    Don't want to read about the muck they're raking

    You sang your song
    For much too long
    There's something wrong
    Your brain is gone

    Oh no, try to liberate me
    I said oh no, stay and irritate me
    I said oh no, try to elevate me
    I said oh no, just a fallen hero

    Don't want to hear about the drugs you're taking
    Don't want to read about the love you're making
    Don't want to hear about the lives you're faking
    Don't want to read about the muck they're raking

    It's all a game
    You're not the same
    Your famous name
    The price of fame

    Oh no, try to liberate me
    I said oh no, stay and irritate me
    I said oh no, try to elevate me
    I said oh no, just a fallen hero
    Oh you're just a fallen hero

    Don't want to hear about the drugs you're taking yeah
    Don't want to read about the love you're making
    Don't want to hear about the lives you're faking
    Don't want to read about the muck they're raking

    Don't want to find about the drugs you're taking
    Don't want to read about the love you're making
    Don't want to hear about the lives you're faking
    Don't want to read about the muck they're raking

    Don't want to find out what you've been taking
    Don't want to read about the love you're making
    Don't want to hear about the lives you're faking
    Don't want to read about the muck they're raking

    Don't want to find out what you've been taking
    Don't want to read about the love you're making
    Don't want to hear about the lives you're faking
    Don't want to read about the muck
