Fame Will Eat The Soul

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

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 goin' swell

Then 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 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 goin' swell

And you'll start to break down

You try to get control

Every clown wants to take you down

Yeah, yeah, yeah, 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, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Got to stop breakin' down

Down, 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

Stop breakin' down

Oh stop, stop breakin' down

Stop breakin' down, baby

On the chilling floors

Different town

All the chilling floors

Stop breakin' down

Stop breakin' down

Got to stop breakin' down

Stop breakin' down

You got to stop breakin' down

Got to stop breakin' down

In Hollywood Town

In Hollywood Town

Stop, stop breakin' down in Hollywood Town

Stop breakin' down

Stop breakin' down, baby

Stop, stop, stop

Stop, stop, stop

Stop, stop, stop

Stop, stop, stop

Stop, stop, stop

Stop, stop, stop

Stop, stop

Stop breakin' down

Stop breakin' down

Stop breakin' down

In Hollywood Town

Stop, stop, stop

Stop, stop

Oh stop breakin' down

Stop breakin' down
