Actor

Smiling through his teeth again he's a friend
His stories bend he holds the pen
Guiding my eyes while he burns it in
It never ends the truth is what he says it is

You're an actor glass armour reflecting the colours and shapes that surround you
Laughing backstage how could anyone believe this it's all a bit
You're talking to yourself too much never running far enough
You're unable to memorize every unspoken rule

And now your walls are getting tired you're running out of lines
You can't make that face all day you already know what they'll say
They'll say that you need a new face and a new car
And a model to take you outside and shoot you like a dog
Walk it off walk it off

Deep beneath the ocean of mirrors
Sinking through the layers of fear
And seeing through the dark
