Marianas Trench - Masterpiece Theatre I lyrics

rate me

First it comes on quiet creeping slow. Clever words and

phrases only stain. I remain so lost and buried under

everything that I need. When all I want is you.

I've been here so very long and every word is calculated never

questioned or debated

All these practiced poses I could wreck it if I had to but I'm

the wreck so what would that do,

My masterpiece will fall apart; it was over before the start

If I burn out and slip away. If this is just a part I portray. You're

beautiful can I hide in you awhile

They keep mostly to themselves; don't make a sound in case

they hear you. It only hurts me to be near you. Keep those

tired eyes closed careful follow my instruction and I will show

you self-destruction. This masterpiece is only mine, entirely

guilty by design.

I just can't let it

If this is just a part I portray, I don't know how it got this way.
