Lyrics
You say you're quite the actress
You claim to be skillful in acting or pretending.
But I don't really know for sure
I am uncertain about the truth of your statement.
And it's hard to be rejected
Facing rejection is challenging.
When you don't know what you're living for
You're struggling when you lack a clear purpose in life.
But talk is cheap
Verbal expressions lack value when not sincere.
When your tongue is where your heart should be
Your words don't reflect genuine emotions.
Your lies have been detected
Your falsehoods have been discovered.
And I can't take it anymore
I can't tolerate the deception any longer.
'Cause every time you say something predictable
Your statements are too predictable and repetitive.
It's the same damn thing I've heard before
It echoes familiar phrases I've heard previously.
I never thought that love could ever be so cruel
Love is unexpectedly harsh and unkind.
But every time we touch, so unforgettable
Our physical contact is incredibly memorable.
You know you turn me out, I lose control
You have a profound impact, causing me to lose self-control.
It's like you know that it's my role to play the fool
It seems like being fooled is my designated role.
The warning bells are ringing
Warning signs indicate impending trouble.
I hear them start to take their toll
The consequences are starting to affect you.
Your lovely eyes are changing
Your attractive appearance is undergoing a transformation.
You're not the one you were before
You're not the person you used to be.
You wear the mask
You hide your true self behind a façade.
And we dance pirouettes until the sun is cast
We engage in a deceptive dance until the truth is revealed.
The masquerade has ended
The pretending is over; the act is exposed.
This charade is never going to last
This false display won't endure any longer.
'Cause every time you say something predictable
Your words remain predictable and unoriginal.
It's the same damn thing I've heard before
It repeats the same phrases from the past.
You've got to give me something I can hold on to
I need something genuine and lasting from you.
But every time we touch, so unforgettable
Our physical connection is memorable but lacks depth.
You know you turn me out, I lose control
Your influence over me causes a loss of self-control.
It's like you know that it's my role to play the fool
Being deceived seems to be my assigned role.
For you
This repetition is for your sake.
For you
Reiterated for emphasis, perhaps addressing the person directly.
