Why don't you stop
Why don't you stop
Are you born for the life in the fast lane
With a constant dream of a smooth ride
You've burned all the bridges you can burn
Within the circle it's hard to stop and turn
Some friends of mine, they lost their way
Some got married, brainwashed and moved away
Can you deny that you love the cage you've built
Is there a chance to quit
Why don't you stop
Living in the shadow of someone you could be
Why don't you stop
Pretending to be strong, like you wanna be
Living in the shadow of someone you could be
Someone like you
Sometimes it's a longer way to go
To find out what you don't need to know
You can hide and burn into the night
But no one else is gonna make it right
No courage, but war paint on your face
The daily pressure leaves its trace
Why can't your heart rule your head
Don't play mad
Why don't you stop
Living in the shadow of someone you could be
Why don't you stop
Pretending to be strong, like you wanna be
Living in the shadow of someone you could be
Someone like you
Is there a chance not to follow the line
Is there a chance not to follow the line
Why don't you stop
Living in the shadow of someone you could be
Why don't you stop
Pretending to be strong, like you wanna be
Living in the shadow of someone you could be
Why don't you stop
Living in the shadow of someone you could be
Why don't you stop
Pretending to be strong, like you wanna be
Living in the shadow of someone you could be
Someone like you
