Icon For Hire - Theater lyrics

rate me

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 & pray to God for the strength to help me

Face the crowd, I wanna live like I lost the script & scream every line

Like "this is it!"

They say all the world's a stage, Rewriting your itentity 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 & pray to God for the strength to help me

Face the crowd, I wanna live like I lost the script & scream every line

Like "this is it!"

I'm gonna burn this theater down & pray to God for the strength to help me

Face the crowd, I wanna live like I lost the script & scream every line

Like "this is it!"

& 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 & if you'd like a show, you can follow the ashes

I'm gonna burn this theater down & pray to God for the strength to help me

Face the crowd, I wanna live like I lost the script & scream every line

Like "this is it!"

I'm gonna burn this theater down & pray to God for the strength to help me

Face the crowd, I wanna live like I lost the script & scream every line

Like...

"This is it!"
