You keep walkin' round like you own the scene
With that plastic smile, so shiny and clean
Thinkin' everybody's buyin' your lie
But your castle's built where the tides get high
I’m not the one who’s blind, I see right through the fame
It’s just a borrowed name, an empty flame
So go on, write it on a piece of paper
Your autograph, in fancy script, go on and fade
Write it on a piece of paper, superstar, superstar
Yeah, scribble it down, that title you chase
Fold it away with your fall from grace
Write it on a piece of paper, superstar
But who are you when the paper's torn
I heard the whispers in the hallways grow
The cracks begin to show, we all know
The glitter fades when the lights go down
And you’re left alone in this empty town
So hold your pen up high, sign your name so bold
But a story never told can’t ever be sold
So go on, write it on a piece of paper
Your autograph, in fancy script, go on and fade
Write it on a piece of paper, superstar, superstar
Yeah, scribble it down, that title you chase
Fold it away with your fall from grace
Write it on a piece of paper, superstar
But who are you when the paper's torn
Paper don’t tear, ink don’t bleed
Can’t feel the heartbeat that you really need
So stack your pages to the sky so high
But truth’s a secret that you just can’t keep
So go on, write it on a piece of paper
Your autograph, in fancy script, go on and fade
Write it on a piece of paper, superstar, superstar
Yeah, scribble it down, that title you chase
Fold it away with your fall from grace
Write it on a piece of paper, superstar
But who are you when the paper's torn
Write it on a piece of paper
Superstar
Write it on a piece of paper
Don't you forget it
Just write it on a piece of paper
