• Act

    It's just the same old tap and dance.
    Always alike, don't take a chance.
    Laugh for you, cry for him.
    Make up my face, not too thin.
    I have to wear a mask to hide.
    Hide the beast that lives inside.
    The emotionless creature, always enraged
    I have to be careful to keep it caged.
    I guess I'll just act it out
    Just hide all that i'm about.
    It seems like everything I do it a lie.
    Nowadays, I can't even cry.
    My laughter's fake, my smile false.
    My barely wave to those in halls.
    You see, in all I do, I act.
    When all are lies, that is fact.
    All i am is a liar.
    Come on, watch my heart afire.
