Curtain Call

The curtain rises and the act begins put that foot here say this word now don't you advertise that fear Cause babe we're putting on a show the fake smiles come to natural and I got to let you know we got to get control got to stop this The words come out flawlessly we been through this act hundred of times knowing what to do and what to say hiding our souls so secretly praying to god no one finds out Hey babe, look the curtains closing we waited to long our bodies their disposing for the next show, they're too wrong tried too hard to be the right one didn't last long now our act is done and our chance is gone Cause babe we put on a good show the fake smiles came too natural and Its too late to realize too late to control
