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

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 skeleton's 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

'Cause 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

Oh-oh, fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

Oh-oh, 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 existence

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

'Cause 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

Oh-oh, fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

Oh-oh, fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

Oh-oh, fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

Oh-oh, fame won't love you like a mother, like a father should

Oh-oh
