Actors under stage lights
Housewives pleading for romance
Shadows in the looking glass
Are we off the script now?
When every eye is on you
You're breaching the banks of the levee
Just say it once more with meaning
And you'll be bringing the house down
But I don't believe you're suffering
I came to see the storm that caused the scar
Because this stage is your life
Tragic or triumphant
To be holding out for a screen play
And taking the direction
Until you pause for applause
Addicted to an art of
Curtain calls, costume and make up
Just say it once more with meaning
And you'll be bringing the house down
But I don't believe you're suffering
I need to see the storm that caused the scar
Burn your name in bright lights
and then night after night you'll repeat the same line
repeat the same line repeat the same line
