Lyrics
Every laugh feels like a borrowed line, Yeah, I wear this mask and it fits just fine, But when the spotlight fades away, I'm still searching for any words left in play. Playing the role in a scene made of dreams, Dancing through my acts is not as easy as it seems, With each passing script, I try to be strong, But deep down inside, I know where I belong. Oh, the lines we write, they're tangled in our hearts, Every word a glimpse of the truth in the dark, And under some courage, I'm feeling a little small, But I'll keep on acting out, giving it my all. Playing the role in a scene made of dreams, Dancing through my acts is not as easy as it seems, With each passing script, I try to be strong, But deep down inside, I know where I belong. As for the nights that I'm pretending to be, I let the music try and set every teardrop free, Playing this charade 'til the curtain comes down, I'll always be thinking about how to be found. Playing the role in a scene made of dreams, Dancing through my acts is not as easy as it seems, With each passing script, I try to be strong, But deep down inside, I know where I belong.
