LirikI would not expect you felt alone in standing north Better to rise above the clouds Then be a stranger in the crowd All that you protected doesn’t matter anymore Rather be stripped of all your pride Than watch your dreams be cast aside
Glorifying stardom Singing your own praise
You live without shame You’re digging up a gold mine Standing on the sidelines Watching through the looking glass
You are not content with being nameless and unknown Trying to rise above the fray Eager to give it all away
Some will not admit that 15 minutes have expired Too much attention much too soon Don’t see you walking on the moon
You are caught up in your gravity Bathing in the spotlight Imitating fame
You’re digging up a gold mine Standing on the sidelines Watching through the looking glass
You are caught up in your gravity Glorifying madness Singing your own praise
You live without shame You’re digging up a gold mine Standing on the sidelines Watching through the looking glass
You live without shame You’re digging up a gold mine Standing on the sidelines Watching through the looking glass AnalisisLagu ini bercerita tentang seniman muda yang masuk dalam dunia musik dan terpesona oleh ketenaran dan tidak pernah merasa puas dari apa yang didapatkan.[1] Referensi
