Lyrics

I'm sick of tryin' to be famous
The pressure's making me crack
I know my heart's in it, but my head talks back

Oh, some nights I wanna be somebody else
Oh, throw in the towel, run like hell

Cause I don't want this life
If it means that I've
Got to play a part
Just so I can get by
And I don't want this pain
For you to know my name
You'll forget me anyway
Like you do all the time
Oh, some nights I wanna be famous
And some nights, some nights I wonder why

I'm sick of tryin' to be patient
And I'm done playing nice
You told me you would be waiting, but you fuckin' lied

Oh, some nights I wanna be somebody else
Oh, throw in the towel, run like hell

Cause I don't want this life
If it means that I've
Got to play a part
Just so I can get by
And I don't want this pain
For you to know my name
You'll forget me anyway
Like you do all the time
Oh, some nights I wanna be famous
And some nights, some nights I wonder why

Sometimes I can't explain it
Feels like I'm losing my mind
Wish I could just run away

Oh, I don't want this life
If it means that I've
Got to play a part
Just so I can get by
And I don't want this pain
For you to know my name
You'll forget me anyway
Like you do all the time

Some nights I wanna be famous
Some nights I wanna be famous
Some nights I wanna be famous
But some nights, some nights I wonder why
