  • Tough girl in the fast lane
    No time for love, no time for hate
    No drama, no time for games
    Tough girl whose soul aches

    I come home, on my own
    Check my phone, nothing, though
    Act busy, order in
    Pay TV, it's agony (oh)

    I may cry ruinin' my makeup
    Wash away all the things you've taken
    And I don't care if I don't look pretty
    Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
    Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
    Big girls cry when their heart is breaking

    Tough girl, I'm in pain
    It's lonely at the top, blackouts and airplanes
    And I still pour you a glass of champagne
    Tough girl whose soul aches

    I come home, on my own
    Check my phone, nothing, though
    Act busy, order in
    Pay TV, it's agony (oh)

    I may cry ruinin' my makeup
    Wash away all the things you've taken
    And I don't care if I don't look pretty
    Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
    Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
    Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking

    I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up
    I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up
    I wake up, I wake up, I wake up, I wake up
    Alone

    I may cry ruinin' my makeup
    Wash away all the things you've taken
    And I don't care if I don't look pretty
    Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
    Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking
    Big girls cry when their heart is breaking Writer/s: Christopher Braide, Sia Kate Furler
