Do what you want, don't make it bigger than you have to
The whole world has problems with or without you
Tension's getting high, put you in the crossroads
People passing by, starting to get hostile
It's all fame, fortune and fashion
So don't hold your breath
And if it changes how you are acting
You're gonna lose yourself
Profiles imposed, who is it that you want to see?
I change my clothes, but underneath it's always me
To stand your ground doesn't just mean to stand around
How can I search when everything has already been found?
It's all fame, fortune and fashion
So don't hold your breath
And if it changes how you are acting
You're gonna lose yourself
These times are changing, if you don't keep up you will be let down
The mirror's cracking, can you act like you were before it was around?
You are becoming, becoming a picture in a book
But the water's deeper, deeper than the picture that you took
It's all fame, fortune and fashion
So don't hold your breath
And if it changes how you are acting
You're gonna lose yourself
