Actors

I should speak honesty, but I lie You would leave if you could read my mind (pre) When I lie next to you I can’t shut off my mind Hold my breath while you breathe… the same thing every night Who will be first to go (chorus) The morning after We’ll be actors I’ll be pleading insanity Faking rapture Love’s disaster Is the story of you and me The truth will never work Somebody’s getting hurt Over and over again We’re just actors… Actors... Actors… Actors Fate writes the script, learn the lines, follow it We play the scene, while we don’t give a shit (pre) I feel stuck, you’re confused only see black and white I shoot first then regret I choose fight over flight Fall asleep to forget Chorus (bridge) It’ll never last, every movie ends After the final kiss I’m playing house, you’re playing God Who can live like this We’re better off, deep in a role That we can hide in It’s not a lie if we believe it Chorus
