Where were you in the hard times?
When we didn’t have a clue what we were after.
And where were you when we were laughed at?
Do you still feel jealous of me?
Do you still feel jealous of me?

Life is too long to waste it with people who make it seem eternal
And how can you be so jealous of me when I’m standing under the spotlight?
You wanna take some heat and feel the sweat that’s dripping down my backbone?

Where were you in the hard times?
When we didn’t have a clue what we were after.
And where were you when we were laughed at?
Are you still jealous of me?
You wanna swap now?

It’s the lifestyle that we chose we pay the price when it takes its toll on us
Before the claps, before the cheers, before the awards and photos
If you could only see us back before we could afford to look cool

Where were you in the hard times?
When we didn’t have a clue what we were after.
And where were you when we were laughed at?
Do you still feel jealous of me?
Do you still feel jealous of me?

Where were you in the hard times?
Where were you in the hard times?
Where were you in the hard times?
Where were you in the hard times?

Where were you in the hard times?
Where were you in the hard times?
Where were you in the hard times?
Where were you in the hard times?

Are you still jealous of me?
Are you still jealous of me?
Are you still jealous of me?
You wanna swap now?
