Idol

[Verse 1] You don’t have to idolize me,
I just want you to want me.
It’s not fair that I’m down at your feet,
while you walk away holding my heart.

[Pre-chorus] Look around – every eye is on me,
center stage, everyone wants a piece.
Oh yeah, they’re all on their knees,
except you. Why are you so stubborn?

[Chorus] You’re the only one who won’t bow down,
the only one who doesn’t see me.
I’m bathing in light, spotlight burns,
but you still push me into the dark.
You don’t have to idolize me,
I just want you to want me.
Can’t you see I’m bleeding at your feet?


[Verse 2] How do you do it – I can’t think of anything else?
You pull me in, then push away.
You tease and still blush when you do.


[Pre-chorus repeat] Everyone’s on their knees,
except you. Why are you so stubborn?


[Chorus repeat] You’re the only one who won’t bow down,
the only one who doesn’t see me.
I’m bathing in light, spotlight burns,
but you still push me into the dark.
You don’t have to idolize me,
I just want you to want me.
Can’t you see I’m bleeding at your feet?


[Bridge] Let your hair down – that's sexy
Don't lower your head, there's nothing to fear
You don’t really see me, and when you do – you just look through me

[Final Chorus] The whole world lies at my feet – I sing for them
I’m an idol – and you don’t even care
I don’t need a fan – but you’re just a wall in front of me
Your innocent gaze doesn’t move me anymore
They scream my name, hands in the air
Everyone wants me, but your silence is louder
You don’t have to idolize me – but damn, you don’t even try
