"The Child in the Spotlight"

When I was eight years old,
I could smile better than the grown-ups.

I stood in the spotlight,
heard my name being called,
and was loved by so many people.

But maybe
it wasn't the real me being praised.
Maybe it was only the "role" I was playing.

While this song tells the story of a former child actor, it is also for:
* People who are still trapped by past success
* People who keep trying to live up to others' expectations
* People who spend their lives playing roles as parents, bosses, employees, or lovers
* People who no longer know who they truly are
This is a song for all of them.

When the lights go out,
who is left standing on the stage?
And can that person
still sing with their own voice?

I hope you'll listen until the very end.

If you enjoyed this song,
you can watch the official music video on the YouTube channel below.
I would be happy if you could take a look.
There, you will also find many other songs in different styles.
