Spotlight Songtext
von The Protest

You′ve played the rock star for way too long
Don't you remember why you chased this dream at all?
And your head is swelling and your soul you′re selling
For a life that won't fulfill your ever-growing needs

On your path to glory you've left so many people hurt
Now it′s time to wake up before your dreams hit the dirt

Smile for the camera, standing in your spotlight
Everyone adores you, but that won′t make it right
You can run, you can hide
But if you're gonna take the stage then step aside
There won′t be much behind your spotlight


So it's time to wake up and stop letting your luck
To get you through this god-forsaken life
So who do you serve, my friend?
Yourself or anything that throws itself in your direction
And steals your attention?

On your path to glory you′ve left so many people hurt
Now it's time to wake up before your dreams hit the dirt

Smile for the camera, standing in your spotlight
Everyone adores you, but that won′t make it right
You can run, you can hide
But if you're gonna take the stage then step aside
There won't be much behind your spotlight

Smile for the camera, standing in your spotlight
Everyone adores you, but that won′t make it right
You can run, you can hide
But if you′re gonna take the stage then step aside
There won't be much behind your spotlight
Your spotlight
Your spotlight
There won′t be much behind
