Curtain Call
Behind the Smile: Unveiling the Intriguing Drama of 'Curtain Call'
Lyrics
Here I go in that flow
Expressing readiness to enter a creative or performative state.
Everything is allowed
Emphasizing a sense of freedom and lack of restrictions.
It's the last show, sold out
Referring to a final performance that is completely sold out.
Every seat's taken
Indicating that every available seat in the venue is occupied.
I put on my smile and start the faking
Putting on a fake smile and pretending for the audience.
I play my part so well it'll make you cry
Performing a role so convincingly that it evokes strong emotions.
I'll never be the same but you don't mind
Undergoing a transformation but being accepted by others.
I pour out my soul up on that stage
Revealing deep emotions and vulnerabilities on stage.
I'm in control look at my face
Asserting control over the performance and displaying confidence.
It's all good, I won't lose my mind
Expressing confidence in maintaining mental stability.
Just take you by surprise when I die
Creating surprise or shock through the performance.
Sometimes I wish that I did, for real
Expressing a desire for genuine experiences, even if painful.
Now I don't have the time to heal
Feeling a lack of time for personal healing.
All these wounds I made look so real
Referring to emotional wounds created during the performance.
They still keep hurting me
Despite being fake, the wounds continue to affect the performer.
Â??Yo, what the deal why don't you stop the crying?â??
Addressing external criticism or questioning the need for sadness.
Thay ask me, it's all inside me
Suggesting that the performer's struggles are internal.
Forever lasting
Describing the enduring nature of the internal struggles.
I fly so high, I fall so hard
Highlighting the highs and lows experienced in life.
It's time for curtain call ' last time was enough for me
Expressing a reluctance to repeat a past performance.
This time not gonna lie down, gonna stand up with my own too feet
Determining not to surrender but to stand firm.
I'm that kind that you don't wanna trust
Characterizing oneself as untrustworthy or unpredictable.
When I smile is when I wanna bust
Indicating a desire to express intense emotions when appearing happy.
When I feel free is when I'm locked up
Feeling constrained or imprisoned during moments of freedom.
And when I love, you know what's up
Emphasizing unpredictability in expressing love.
I look at the crowd in this beautiful night
Observing the audience's positive reaction during the performance.
So nice, how they smile
Appreciating the audience's smiles during the show.
I made them feel good, I treated them right
Fulfilling the audience's expectations and making them feel good.
I gave 'em what they wanted
Satisfying the audience by providing what they desire.
I fed their minds, With their hands in the air
Engaging the audience physically and emotionally.
They cry: â??do that again, make it look realâ??
Receiving requests to repeat certain actions for authenticity.
And I will, cause I'm their little puppet
Acknowledging being controlled by external expectations.
I got my mask on, can nobody stop it
Maintaining a facade or persona with a hidden reality.
But behind the smile is where it all happens
Revealing that the true self is hidden behind the performance.
Behind the curtain is where I start lacking
Experiencing a sense of emptiness or inadequacy behind the scenes.
So please tonight just leave me alone
Pleading for personal space and solitude.
And give me a chance to be on my own
Requesting an opportunity for individual growth and self-discovery.
I'll fly so high, I'll fall so hard
Acknowledging the potential for both success and failure.
