Lyrics
Blacked out Pop queen, amphetamine The screams crashed into silence Tapped out Doused in the gasoline The high times going timeless Decadence Death of the innocence The pathway starts to spiral Infamy All for publicity Destruction going viral Light it up Ah, light it up Another hit erases all the pain Bulletproof Ah, kill the truth You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high High again Sold your soul Built a higher wall Yesterday Now you’re thrown away Same rise and fall Who cares at all? Seduced by fame A moth into the flame Twisted Backstabbing wicked The delusion absolution Perjurer Fame is the murderer Seduce you into ruin Light it up Ah, light it up Another hit erases all the pain Bulletproof Ah, tell the truth You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high High again Sold your soul Built the higher wall Yesterday Now you’re thrown away Same rise and fall Who cares at all? Seduced by fame A moth into the flame Burn Guarantee your name, you go and kill yourself The vultures feast around you still Overdose on shame and insecurity If one won’t do that fistful will Death scene Black hearse the limousine A grave filled with seduction Vaccine Fame does the murdering She builds up for destruction So light it up Ah, light it up Another hit erases all the pain Bulletproof Ah, no excuse You’re falling, but you think you’re flying high High again Sold your soul Built the higher wall Yesterday Now you’re thrown away Same rise and fall Who cares at all? Seduced by fame A moth into the flame Addicted to the Fame© 2016 Creeping Death Music (Global Music Rights)
