Sia - Fame Won't Love You feat. Paris Hilton lyrics

Watch children cry
The pageant sells the lie
Third place isn’t winning you know
And neither is first
The pressure and the thirst
For the skeletons 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
Cos 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
Fame won’t love you like a mother, like a father should
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
Hoping in them I’d find validation for my futile

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
Cos 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
Fame won’t love you like a mother, like a father should
Fame won’t love you like a mother, like a father should
Fame won’t love you like a mother, like a father should
Fame won’t love you like a mother, like a father should
