Showtime

You've paid and you've suffered,

been everyone's fool,

you beg to be noticed,

your licking your wounds,

you wait and you wonder how,

"was it any use?"

Try taking that armor down,

and just this ones,

why don't you fight?

So I fall in love

let my heart take over,

enjoy the show

'cause you'll see

'cause you'll see who I really am

You wake and you wonder

through days of despair,

yet you remain hopeful,

that there's somebody there,

you bear all the burden for,

for those who don't care,

but it's not really worth it no,

the curtain's raised

start the play,

tears in your eyes

So I fall in love

let my heart take over,

enjoy the show

'cause you'll see

'cause you'll see who I really am

So I took out my passion

with a blow to the head,

and it was through my own action,

that our romance was dead

So I fall in love

let my heart take over,

enjoy the show

'cause you'll see

'cause you'll see who I really am

I'm portraying and imitating

everything I'm not,

as I'm performing you're adoring

but my facade will rot

I'm portraying and imitating
