Intro
Verse 1
Neon cuts through the smoke, leather on the seat,
Velvet rope whispers secrets I can't keep.
Champagne spills on the floor, crowd's hungry for more,
The spotlight's a promise I can't ignore.
Pre Chorus
Feel the heat on my skin, hear the roar of the night,
Every step I'm taking, feels like a fight.
Caught in the game, but I can't walk away,
Living for the moment, come what may.
Chorus
Is this the life I wanted, or the life that wanted me?
Trapped in the madness, but I can't break free.
Is this the life I wanted, or the life that wanted me?
Chasing the high, but it's killing me.
Verse 2
Hotel rooms and backstage, memories fade,
Faces in the crowd, but I'm the one who pays.
Mirror's cracked, but I still see the dream,
Underneath the glitter, the truth cuts clean.
Pre Chorus
Feel the weight of the crown, the price of the fame,
Every step I climb, just fuels the flame.
Caught in the cycle, can't find my way,
Living for the night, come what may.
Chorus
Is this the life I wanted, or the life that wanted me?
Trapped in the madness, but I can't break free.
Is this the life I wanted, or the life that wanted me?
Chasing the high, but it's killing me.
Break
Chorus
Is this the life I wanted, or the life that wanted me?
In the spotlight's glare, I can't see.
Is this the life I wanted, or the life that wanted me?
The dream became a nightmare, can't you see?
