A Crowd Pleaser...

So what's your accomplishment today.
Was it saying all those things you meant to say.
How about you walking away.
Announcing that everything's ok.
When it's not.

Don't ever act like.
You never cared for me.
Don't ever say things like.
He's keeping me away from you.
Don't ever do the things that you do.
Don't ever.
Don't ever.
Put on an act for the crowd to see.
They clap their hands & tell you they're pleased.

You wear a mask to not reveil your emotions.
I feel the vibe of your hidden notions.
You put a lockdown on your heart.
As you begin to play your part.
You do it well.
No one could ever tell.
That it's all fake, the act that you are trying to sell.

Don't ever act like.
You never cared for me.
Don't ever say things like.
He's keeping me away from you.
Don't ever do the things that you do.
Don't ever.
Don't ever.
Put on an act for the crowd to see.
They clap their hands and tell you they're pleased.

Someday you will fall down.
Everyone will laugh at this clown.
The spotlight was to much to take.
Get off this stage for your own sake.
Throw away your script of lies.
All the stuff you memorized.
To tell the ones that you please.
It wasn't the key.
To this life.

Don't ever act like.
You never cared for me.
Don't ever say things like.
He's keeping me away from you.
Don't ever do the things that you do.
Don't ever.
Don't ever.
Put on an act for the crowd to see.
They clap their hands and tell you they're pleased.

Don't you realize they all payed to see.
A rendition of what could be.
A modern tragedy.
We are not pleased.
