Actors under stage lights,
|
Housewives pleading for romance
|
Shadows in a looking glass,
|
Are we off the script now?
|
|
When every eye is on you,
|
You're breaching the banks of the levee
|
Just say it once more with meaning
|
And you'll be bringing the house down
|
|
But I don't believe you're suffering
|
I came to see the storm that caused the scar
|
|
Because this stage is your life...
|
|
Tragic or triumphant
|
To be holding out for screen play
|
And taking the direction
|
Until you pause for applause
|
|
Addicted to an art
|
Of curtain calls, costume and make-up
|
Just say it once more with meaning
|
And you'll be bringing the house down
|
|
But I don't believe you're suffering
|
I need to see the storm that caused the scar
|
|
Because this stage is your life...
|
|
Burn your name in bright lights
|
And then night after night
|
You'll repeat the same line
|
Repeat the same line, repeat the same line...
|
|
Because this stage is your life...
|
