[Verse 1]
When the drugs don't work
And you're feeling half alive
Tell me where it hurts
Tell me if you wanna cry
[Pre-Chorus]
What a shame
(Sending out a S.O.S)
What a waste of fame
(Sending out a S.O.S)
What is going on in your world today?
[Chorus]
Ooh, what are you like when the cameras gone?
Ooh, is this life what you want?
Ooh, what are you like when the cameras gone?
Why you crying when nothing's wrong?
[Verse 2]
When the drugs don't work
And you're feeling out of balance
Little Princess hurt locked away inside her palace
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, what can I say?
(What can I say?)
To make it go away?
The flowers won't grow without a littlе rain
[Chorus]
Ooh, what are you like when thе cameras gone?
Ooh, is this life what you want?
Ooh, what are you like when the cameras gone?
Why you crying when nothing's wrong?
[Bridge]
Why are you crying when nothing's wrong?
Why are you crying when nothing's wrong?
I fear the silence, the night is long
I fear the silence at the end of the song
Why are you crying when nothing's wrong?
Why are you crying when nothing's wrong?
I fear the silence, the night is long
I fear the silence at the end of the song
[End]
What are you like when the cameras gone?
Is this life what you want?
What are you like when the cameras gone?
Why you crying when nothing's wrong?
