Every Night Of The Year

Every night of the year
The dancer confronts her fear
'Bout her image and her worth
Or whether she's doomed or cursed
Or be insecure for the rest of her days
And as she climbs up on a stage
She glances at the perverts who pay the wage
She says, life is suffering, oh, yes, I know
But could you let me go

'Cause I'm the one you're gonna miss
I'm the one that you'll hold dear
About me they'll reminisce
Every night of the year

Every night of the year
The writer confronts his fear
Has he done all he could and will he be understood
Or will his work be a dime store luxury
And as he sits at his desk
He starts to burn up all his texts
He says, pain is pleasure or so they say
But me, I gotta find my own way

'Cause I'm the one you're gonna miss
I'm the one that you'll hold dear
About me they'll reminisce
Every night of the year

Every night of the year
The actress confronts her fear
Little one steps on the stage
She thinks, what am I doing here
And as she takes her marks wondering is this a phase
And is this all a gift, or is she missing all of it
But if she sees her mom smile, then it really drives her wild
'Cause her acceptance and approval was worth her while
When there's nowhere to run and hide
It's just me and you behind the mirror
She keeps screaming inside
Every night of the year
