Lyrics:

My life is a musical, I know how to put on
A pretty pathetic show, I hide
Backstage, keep the curtains closed
'Cause I'm scared, I'm scared

I'm getting pretty good at feeding them
The lines they like but I don't
Recognize the girl I face each night
I can compromise till I'm convinced, it's right

What happened to the girl who could overlook the world?
She never gave a second to what the other people thought
What happened to the dream of rejecting the routine?
'Cause they never worked for me

I'm gonna burn this theater down
And pray to God for the strength to help me face the crowd
I wanna live like I lost the script
And scream every line like this is it

They say all the world's a stage
Rewriting your identity is all the rage
Well, next act please, I'd like a change
I don't really like pretending this way

What happened to the girl who could overlook the world?
She never gave a second to what the other people thought
What happened to the dream of rejecting the routine?
'Cause they never worked for me

I'm gonna burn this theater down
And pray to God for the strength to help me face the crowd
I wanna live like I lost the script
And scream every line like this is it

I'm gonna burn this theater down
And pray to God for the strength to help me face the crowd
I wanna live like I lost the script
And scream every line like this is it

And the sad thing is we're all in on the action
We're all holding our breath, waiting for a reaction
You play your part, I'll be playing with matches
And if you'd like a show, you can follow the ashes

I'm gonna burn this theater down
And pray to God for the strength to help me face the crowd
I wanna live like I lost the script
And scream every line like this is it

I'm gonna burn this theater down
And pray to God for the strength to help me face the crowd
I wanna live like I lost the script
And scream every line like this is it
