Faces on Film

I didn't know you were an actor
Played every part climbed up the ladder
Taking your time, taking the longer way

But they took your life when you signed those papers
I couldn't help, I couldn't save ya
They wrote the lines they thought you should say

If I could hide you under my cape
Tuck you away in my suitcase
When you get tired of being alone
Anywhere but here is home
It's not in your deal
When you say when I will
Leave behind the world

My favorite scenes are when you're escaping
Finding a place you could be safe in
Hiding your eyes, cover them with your hair

You follow the road and you know where it's winding
You do what your told oh you do the deciding
Tears me your part that we had to find a way

If I could hide you under my cape
Tuck you away in my suitcase
When you get tired of being alone
Anywhere but here is home
It's not in your deal
If you say when I will
Leave behind the world

If I could hide you under my cape
Tuck you away in my suitcase
When you get tired of being alone
Anywhere but here is home
It's not in your deal
If you're so good of here
It's the underneath that's real
Let's leave behind the world
