Lyrics
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
'Til 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, yeah
You drank some darkness, didn't ya?
You drank some darkness, didn't ya?
Against the light within you
Against the light within you
You drank some darkness, didn't ya?
You drank some darkness, didn't ya?
Can't get back on the right track
Fame will eat the soul
Down in Hollywood Town
Things are goin' swell
And you'll start breakin' down
Can't get control
When every clown wants to take you down, yeah
Yeah, alright, alright, alright
You drank some darkness, didn't ya?
You drank some darkness, didn't ya?
Against the light within you
Against the love within you
You drank some darkness, didn't ya?
You drank some darkness, didn't ya?
Can't get back on the right track
Fame will eat the soul
Down in Hollywood Town
Things are goin' swell
And you'll to start break down
You try to get control
But every clown wants to take you down, yeah
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, yeah
Got to stop breakin' down
Down, down, down, down
Fame will eat the soul
'Til you just can't fake it
Fame will eat the soul
And your heart's gonna break
Fame will eat the soul
'Til you just can't take it no more, take it no more
Stop breakin' down
