Lyrics
You’re like scarlett, looking for your cue
Settling for something easy til it comes to you
Nobody’s perfect after the shoot
When I get lonely, I’m in lowercase
Kill myself with memories soaked in the good old days
They weren’t that easy, playing your games
You had good intent
And that don’t mean shit
You don’t have to try so hard to be famous
If someday God above will make you pay for it
You fly too close to the sun
Until you lose the only one who loved ya
Nothing like your parents, I guess that’s by design
Take yourself and break yourself at least a hundred times
You know I love ya, stop asking if it rhymes
You changed your hair again so tell me what’s the deal
It won’t do a damn for all the voids you gotta fill
You may need love, I just need something real
And maybe now and then
It will all make sense
You don’t have to try so hard to be famous
If someday God above will make you pay for it
You fly too close to the sun
Until you lose the only one who loved ya
Oh baby, gonna be a raw deal
When you ask around how I feel
And it ain’t the same but it ain’t bad
I’d walk a thousand miles
To save myself the constant trouble
Of hanging onto something I can’t have
You don’t have to try so hard to be famous
If someday God above will make you pay for it
You fly too close to the sun
You fly too close to the sun
Oh, you fly too close to the sun
