I know all the lines to say
|
the part I'm expected to play
|
but in the reflection I am worlds away
|
|
as I put my costume on
|
eyelashes one by one
|
been doing this so long I can tie the knot
|
behind my back
|
|
And everyone's waiting
|
but it's getting harder to hear what my heart is saying
|
cos everyone's waiting
|
|
Just swallow and breathe, she says
|
Remember this ain't for you it's for them
|
And all of those painful lessons you've had to learn
|
you gotta use them now or never
|
|
Cos everyone's waiting
|
but it's getting harder to hear
|
what my heart keeps saying
|
Turn it off, I wanna turn it all off
|
|
When everyone's waiting
|
it makes it harder to hear what my heart keeps saying
|
Turn it off, I wanna turn it all off
|
|
but everyone's waiting
|
I hear that answers appear when you just stand still
|
but make it all, how do you make it all stop
|
when everyone's waiting?
