The Final Performance
She had nothing to gain
This is my only shot
Dance through the pain
It wasn’t my fault she didn’t have a main
Role. She wanted to see me distraught
She had nothing to gain
I can see her trying to feign
Support by smiling and whatnot
Dance through the pain
She waited to complain
Until I was in earshot
She had nothing to gain
The tears began to flow down my face like rain
Her words intruding my every thought
Dance through the pain
She’s jealous, get it out of your brain
They told me, but I cannot
She had nothing to gain
Dance through the pain
