[Verse 1] Spotlights on, its shining bright And I like standing in it Its only superficial light But I dont want to end it Its warmth and glow has taken hold And Im caught up in its shine A Cinderella fairy tale I want to claim as mine Fancy clothes, a magic coach And happy ever after Like something from a story book The Cinderella chapter But when the clock strikes midnight And I lie awake in bed Things my Daddy told me Keep running through my head [Verse 2] You gotta walk the straight and narrow And to thine own self be true Gotta aim straight as an arrow All eyes are up on you But sometimes it feels so good That I can almost justify Living a lie living a lie Living a lie living a lie [Verse 3] Is it wrong for me to want The sweeter grass thats greener? To chase the allAmerican dream Ive always been a dreamer At the top and still Ive got A heavy heart inside I keep remembering Things my Daddy told me as a child [Verse 4] You gotta walk the straight and narrow Gotta hold fast to the right Gotta aim straight as an arrow Walk onward toward the light Oh, but when Im out there in it I think I might get by Living a lie living a lie But I dont feel right living a lie Living a lie living a lie [Verse 5] All the fame and fortune Glory and prestige Cant make me happy if it goes Against what I believe And Ive sacrificed my honor My values and my pride Living a lie living a lie Living a lie living a lie Living a lie living a lie Living a lie Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, I dont feel right
