Days of August - The Actor Lyrics

Look at me, look what I've become
I feel like my mirror lies to me
Here I stand, shouting but silent
I can't break this fallacy

Cause I am the actor and your world is my stage
The illusion is fading, I have to escape
Save this image, lift your pen off the page
This facade is lifting, now I can escape

Final act, take one last bow
My work here is done but I'm still unsatisfied
I walk off the stage, I take off my stage
And my joy is cast aside

Cause I am the actor and your world is my stage
The illusion is fading, I have to escape
Save this image, lift your pen off the page
This facade is lifting, now I can escape

I need to free myself
I need to breath again
Try to release
You say it's simple
But my thoughts are clouded
I need to step through this skin

Cause I am the actor and your world is my stage
The illusion is fading, I have to escape
Save this image, lift your pen off the page
This facade is lifting, now I can escape
