Reputation

(And the reputation)

(And the reputation)

They're gonna want you 

They're gonna love you

They're gonna make 

Your dreams come true

They don't know the real you 

But they're gonna steal you, oh

They're gonna take my dreams

Well, you tried 

You looked for a way

Of keeping your face 

Of keeping your face

(And the reputation) 

You try and you try again

(Isn't worth the patience) 

You leave me to cry again

(Who cares what they're thinkin'?)

(Who cares what they're whisperin', whisperin'?)

(And the rep)

(And the rep)

(And the rep)

You'll never wake up 

If your career takes off

You won't remember 

The promises we wore

No, I won't blame you 

I won't defame you, oh

I wouldn't name you in any court of law

Well, you tried 

You looked for a way

Of keeping your face 

Of keeping your face

(And the reputation) 

You try and you try again

(Isn't worth the patience) 

You leave me to cry again

(Who cares what they're thinkin'?)

(Who cares what they're whisperin', whisperin'?)

(And the reputation) 

You try and you try again

(Isn't worth the patience) 

You leave me to cry again

(Who cares what they're thinkin'?)

(Who cares what they're whisperin', whisperin'?)

(And the rep)

(And the rep)

(And the rep)

(And the rep)

Well, you tried 

You looked for a way

You don't wanna change 

But you still change the same

(And the reputation) 

You try and you try again

(Isn't worth the patience) 

You leave me to cry again

(Who cares what they're thinkin'?)

(Who cares what they're whisperin', whisperin'?)

(And the reputation) 

You try and you try again

(Isn't worth the patience) 

You leave me to cry again

(Who cares what they're thinkin'?)

(Who cares what they're whisperin', whisperin'?)

(And the reputation)

You try and you try

(Isn't worth the patience) 

You try and you try

(Who cares what they're thinkin'?)

(Who cares what they're whisperin', whisperin'?)

(And the reputation) 

(Isn't worth the patience) 

(Who cares what they're thinkin'?)

(Who cares what they're whisperin', whisperin'?)
