Lyrics and translation
Original
Proud of you
Did everything that you said you'd do
Graduated girls with their art degrees
Now your new one walks runways, she's on TV
But you're dead inside
She doesn't call when the tide gets high
Pushed so hard to see your name in lights
Stared too long, now it's turned you blind
It gets cold, so cold
But I guess now you know
This is what you live for
Big dreams since a kid for
What more, what more could you wish for?
Baby, look at where you are
You're a superstar
This is what you'd die for
Codeine when the night falls
Dark thoughts, step away from the knife drawn
Baby, look at where you are
You're a superstar
We know the truth
Don't make me drag it out of you
The pretty crystals, how you depend on 'em
Jaw swings like a pendulum
And now you're ghosting at teatime and wasting away
Bad lies, chapped lips and drinking through pain
Everything's changing, yet you are the island that stayed the same
This is what you live for
Big dreams since a kid for
What more, what more could you wish for?
Baby, look at where you are
You're a superstar
This is what you'd die for
Codeine when the night falls
Dark thoughts, step away from the knife drawn
Baby, look at where you are
You're a superstar
Baby, look at where you are
You're a superstar
