[Intro]
I'm up here every night
You look into my eyes
And everything felt right
[Verse 1]
Just another reason to be on a stage
A constructive place to act out all that rage
Maybe it's the contact that I really crave
I'm happy just to pretend that I'm brave
The days and weeks all blend together
Monotony and mild tempers get the best of me
[Chorus]
Limelight, I'm up all night
I'm stuck to hell if it feels right
I'm neurotic, not so much nervous
Paranoid of having a purpose
Once in a while it's fine
Caught in the limelight
[Verse 2]
Just another day in the office
Living in the red
We need some profit
I'd rather just open up my wallet
I don't want to offer up a service
(No, I never did)
Selling myself, it makes me nervous
Signing my life away in cursive
(I'm getting something)
[Chorus]
Limelight, I'm up all night
I'm stuck to hell if it feels right
I'm neurotic, not so much nervous
Paranoid of having a purpose
Once in a while it's fine
Caught in the limelight
[Bridge]
Caught in the limelight
I'm in the limelight
Caught in the limelight
I'm in the limelight
It doesn't feel right
Caught in the limelight
It doesn't feel
[Chorus]
Limelight, I'm up all night
I'm stuck to hell if it feels right
I'm neurotic, not so much nervous
Paranoid of having a purpose
Once in a while it's fine
(It's fine, I'm alright)
Once in a while it's fine
(It's fine, I'm alright)
