Part of the Scene
Posted: Fri Apr 01, 2011 11:27 pm
You see it all comes down to this
Were you truly there,
Was I really missed?
Or was it in my head, just another broken wish
I wake up alone on your side of the bed
Going through the motions of a living person,
But I’m broken, I feel dead
Ain’t no lie, I need you now
Save me before I drown
What’s the difference
You feigned it before, feign it now
Make me believe that you care
Relax no one’s around no one’s gonna hear a sound
You’re an actor
A global disaster
So plastic and fake
Make up smeared porcelain face
Say it if it’s what you really mean
Play the role like you’re part of the scene
Okay, just wait till you realize it’s a dream
Stay where you are, you’re going nowhere
Saw through me like cellophane
Barely noticed all the pain
Shot me down like a plane
No, we’ve been through too much, won’t be the same
You had me hooked to every word
Held my heart in the palm of your hands
Too late, it detonates without a sound
Can’t be heard, but I know you feel the aftermath
Say it if it’s what you really mean
Play the role like you’re part of the scene
Okay, just wait till you realize it’s a dream
Stay where you are, you’re going nowhere
Baby, you’re plastic and fake
Walk away save face
Make up smeared porcelain face
Bite your tongue feel the taste
Of blood running through your lips
Taste the flavor of everyone you kissed
Now swallow your pride
Don’t try to hide
Give it to me straight
Saw through me like cellophane
Barely noticed all the pain
Shot me down like a plane
No, we’ve been through too much, won’t be the same
You’re just an actor
A global disaster
So plastic and fake
Make up smeared porcelain face
Say it if it’s what you really mean
Play the role like you’re part of the scene
Okay, just wait till you realize it’s a dream
Stay where you are, you’re never gonna go anywhere
Feign it
Make me believe
That there was something more
Before the dust settles on the floor
Were you truly there,
Was I really missed?
Or was it in my head, just another broken wish
I wake up alone on your side of the bed
Going through the motions of a living person,
But I’m broken, I feel dead
Ain’t no lie, I need you now
Save me before I drown
What’s the difference
You feigned it before, feign it now
Make me believe that you care
