I play out my role
|
Why I've even been out walking
|
They tell me that it helps
|
But I know when I'm beaten
|
All those lonely films
|
And all those lonely parties
|
But now the feeling is off-screen
|
An' the tears for real not acted, anymore
|
|
I'm all mixed up inside
|
I want to run but I can't hide
|
And however much we try
|
We can't escape the truth and the fact is
|
|
Don't matter what I do
|
It don't matter what I do
|
Don't matter what I do
|
Don't matter what I do
|
Don't matter what I do
|
'Cause I end up hurting you
|
|
One more covered sigh
|
And one more glance you know means goodbye
|
Can't you see that's why
|
We're dashing ourselves against the rocks of a lifetime
|
|
(In my mind different voices call)
|
What once was pleasure now's pain for us all
|
(In my heart only shadows fall)
|
I once stood proud now I feel so small
|
(I don't know whether to laugh or cry)
|
The long hot summer just passed me by
