Lyrics

<p>[Intro]<br>Ah-ah</p>

<p>[Verse 1]<br>I was a singer<br>You were my fan<br>When no one gave a damn<br>It was you in the dark<br>Scared of your anger<br>In love with your whim<br>Some notes I don't hit<br>But I don't give up</p>

<p>[Pre-Chorus]<br>Now every day the plane takes off<br>And every night the room fills up with<br>People who are convinced I'm not<br>Just some kid fakin' it for your love</p>

<p>[Chorus]<br>'Cause I'm an actress, all of the medals I won for ya<br>Breaking my back just to be your favourite daughter<br>Everywhere I run, I'm always runnin' to ya<br>Breaking my back just hoping you'll say I'm a star</p>

<p>[Verse 2]<br>You had a brother, I look like him<br>You told us as kids<br>"He diеd of a broken heart"<br>And for evеry door you open<br>There's a room I can't go in<br>I break in, I still can't find you<br></p>

<p>[Pre-Chorus]<br>Now that every day the plane takes off<br>And every night the room fills up<br>I tell myself that soon we'll talk<br>Then I sing every word just to ya</p>

<p>[Chorus]<br>'Cause I'm an actress, all of the medals I won for ya<br>Panic attack just to be your favourite daughter<br>Everywhere I run, I'm always runnin' to ya<br>Breaking my back to carry the weight of your heart</p>

<p>[Bridge]<br>But I keep dancing till I get sick<br>Why'd you have to dream so big?<br>Why did no one listen when you hit the notes from your heart?<br>Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah</p>

<p>[Chorus]<br>I'm a good actress, look at the medals I won for ya<br>So you could imagine being a favourite daughter<br>Everywhere I run, I'm always runnin' to ya<br>Breaking my back just to be as brave as my mother</p>
