letra de the life of a showgirl - weglobe
[verse 1]
the curtain goes up, i hear my cue
the orchestra breathes, and i breathe too
a thousand faces, a sea of black
there’s no turning, no turning back
i learned the steps in my bedroom mirror
tracing the lines, getting clearer and clearer
now the lights hit, and the heat does too
and for the next three minutes, every word is true
[chorus]
oh, it’s the life of a showgirl
a hurricane in a plastic world
they hand me roses, thеy scream my name
it’s a beautiful, bеautiful, beautiful shame
yeah, it’s the life of a showgirl
a rollercoaster in a slow-tilt world
i’m the picture, i’m the frame
and i’ll never, ever be the same
[verse 2]
there’s a rip in my stocking, a blister on my heel
a secret that this sequin dress will never reveal
i sign my name on a napkin, a photograph, a hand
trying to give a piece of me that they’ll understand
but they only see the glitter, the red lipstick smile
not the girl counting ceiling tiles in a hotel the next mile
[chorus]
oh, it’s the life of a showgirl
a hurricane in a plastic world
they hand me roses, they scream my name
it’s a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful shame
yeah, it’s the life of a showgirl
a rollercoaster in a slow-tilt world
i’m the picture, i’m the frame
and i’ll never, ever be the same
[bridge]
and sometimes i wonder, late at night
if i turned off the spotlight, would i still feel the light?
or am i only something when somebody’s watching?
is the applause just the sound of my own heart locking?
but the music starts swelling, it’s pulling me in
it’s the only religion i’ve ever been in
[final chorus]
oh, it’s the life of a showgirl!
a hurricane in a plastic world!
they hand me roses, they scream my name!
it’s a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful shame!
yeah, it’s the life of a showgirl!
a rollercoaster in a slow-tilt world!
i’m the picture, i’m the frame!
and i’ll never, ever be the same!
[outro]
no, i’ll never be the same…
just the life of a showgirl…
the life of a showgirl…
