Alternative Decay - Golden Cage Lyrics

Spotlight's burning, holes in my skin They love the show, but hate what's within
Every smile feels like a cut Cutting through the pieces of a fragile life
The noise is louder than my thoughts Fame is the prison and I'm caught
Hey, golden crown, it's breaking me down Riding high, but I'm bound to drown
The weight of their eyes, it's a bitter sound Heavy crown, it's breaking me down
Every handshake feels so fake Another friend, another snake
They pay me gold, but I'm lusting inside The person they love is the one I hide
They cheer my name, but they don't know The cracks behind this hollow glow
Hey, golden crown, it's breaking me down Riding high, but I'm bound to drown
The weight of their eyes, it's a bitter sound Heavy crown, it's breaking me down
Stage lights blind me, I'm losing my face A puppet pulled through a hollow space
The higher you climb, the harder the fall But I'm already numb, I feel nothing at all
Hey, golden crown, it's breaking me down Riding high, but I'm bound to drown
The weight of their eyes, it's a bitter sound Heavy crown, it's breaking me down
Take the fame, take the lies I just wanna close my eyes
Heavy crown, let it fall Maybe then I'll feel it all
Yeah
Thanks for watching
