My life is a musical, I know how to put on a pretty pathetic show I hide backstage,keep the courtains closed cause I'm scared,I'm scared
I'm getting pretty good at feeding them the lines they like But i don't recognize the girl that I face each night I can't compromise til I'm convinced it's right
What happened to the girl who could overlook the world? She never gave a second thought to what the other people thought What happened to the dream of rejecting the routine? Cause it never worked for me I'm gonna burn in this theater down and pray God for the strength to help me face the crowd I wanna live like I lost the script and scream every line like this is it
They say all the world's a stage Rewriting your identity is all the rage Well next act please,I'd like a change I don't really like pretending this way
What happened to the girl who could overlook the world? She never gave a second thought to what the other people thought What happened to the dream of rejecting the routine? Cause it never worked for me I'm gonna burn in this theater down and pray God for the strength to help me face the crowd I wanna live like I lost the script and scream every line like this is it I'm gonna burn in this theater down and pray God for the strength to help me face the crowd I wanna live like I lost the script and scream every line like this is it
And the sad thing is we're all in on the action We're holding our breath, waiting for a reaction You play your part and I'll be playing with matches And if you'd like a show You can follow the ashes
I'm gonna burn in this theater down and pray God for the strength to help me face the crowd I wanna live like I lost the script and scream every line like this is it I'm gonna burn in this theater down and pray God for the strength to help me face the crowd I wanna live like I lost the script and scream every line like... This is it
