The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
As long as you hold me I'll get by
As long as you need me I will try not to die
I don't want the shame
I don't want the blame
I don't want the fame anymore
If only they'd tell me, tell me why
If I could believe them and their lies
But I don't want their name
I don't want their pain
I won't play their games anymore
I always look at the last page of the book
How will it end?
The suspense robs me of lovers and friends
I don't want the shame
I don't want the blame
I don't want the fame anymore
