Acting Class (B Side)

See what had happened was
You were taking classes in the valley acting like you cared and getting good
It was obvious
You just needed some more practice and someone
To practice on and there I stood
So you said those words we both knew you'd rehearsed 'em
By yourself at least a hundred times before
You're such a natural
It's hard to tell if you're just acting so let's run it all again just to be sure

Tell me your lines
Tell me your secrets and lies
Tell me the ones that you've tried that never worked
Tell me your lines
Tell me your sweet lullabies
Tell me the ones that I like or never heard

I know you play the part so well
And you need someone to help you run it
I know it's gonna hurt like hell
But at least this time I'll see it coming

We fell apart because
You moved somewhere close to Calabasas ain't been
But I know the neighborhood
Headshots over love
House of glass just like the movies picket fences no offense
There's splintered wood
You told me nothing hurts as much as you deserve
Wish you could go back to the way we were before
Tried to be casual
I think I know what you've been asking so let's run it all again just to be sure

Tell me your lines
Tell me your secrets and lies
Tell me the ones that you've tried that never worked
Tell me your lines
Tell me your sweet lullabies
Tell me the ones that I like or never heard

I know you play the part so well
And you need someone to help you run it
I know it's gonna hurt like hell
But at least this time I'll see it coming
