The Actress

I'm not okay But you think I am I know what to say And what lines to bend I've got stories for days Looks like it's going so well And the picture I paint with a smile on my face You'd never tell The curtain gets called Girl, turn it on Yeah I'm an actress I put on a show That's where I shine That's all I know So you play the fool And I'll avoid the truth And we'll go around and around 'Cause that's what we know how to do Yeah I'm an actress Another party Another day in the life Another phone call, another close call Everything's fine But spirits get mixed And this is fixed But prescription bottles won't heal this Keep it light I swear I'm alright Yeah I'm an actress I put on a show That's where I shine That's all I know So you play the fool And I'll avoid the truth And we'll go around and around 'Cause that's what we know how to do Yeah I'm an actress Little do you know When I go to bed I wrestle with voices inside my head And all of the things I want to say go left unsaid But I'm a good actress It's one hell of a show I say what you need to hear But I'll let you go So you play the fool And I'll play it cool We'll go around and around long enough to avoid the truth Yeah I'm an actress Yeah I'm good, how are you? So glad you're fine too
