I'm watching an old movie from the 1930's and I wrote this.

The light on your face like a black and white film
Slowly flickering and yet so deceiving
The gleam in your eye hides what's inside
It blinds me but I can't look away

Is this rehearsel or for real this time?
Are those words yours or from a script?
A clock strikes midnight and the cameras roll
But I can't play my part tonight

This is the tragedy of you and me
This is real-life entertainment
We're the only people in this scene
And we'll be here ''til the curtain closes

(chorus)
Are you looking for applause?
I'm looking for a way out
And your anger burns slowly like incencse.
So take your bows
'Cause the fantasy is over
Step off the stage and into reality

I've hinted and done foreshadowing to death
But you never even caught on
Did you pretend to be unaware?
Or was that just part of the show?

I'm tired of saying th same old lines
You and I can't get past square one
No special effects or glory now
We've acted like we're in love for too long

They say the show must always go on
But you'll have to do that without me
I'll have no more of this fake scene
And I'm sick of relying on drama

(chorus)
