Icon For Hire - Theater

Song: Theater
Album: Scripted
Artist: Icon For Hire
Lyrics:
My life is a musical
I know how to put on a pretty pathetic show
I hide backstage, keep the curtains closed
'Cause I'm scared, I'm scared

I'm getting pretty good at feeding them the lines they like
But I don't recognize the girl that I face each night
I can compromise 'till I'm convinced it's right

PRE-CHORUS:
What happened to the girl who could overlook the world?
She never gave a second thought to what the other people thought
What happened to the dream of rejecting the routine
'Cause it never worked for me

CHORUS:
I'm gonna burn this theater down
And pray to God for the strength to help me face the crowd
I wanna live like I lost the script
And scream every line like this is it

They say all the world's a stage
Rewriting your identity is all the rage
Well, next act, please, I'd like a change
I don't really like pretending this way

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS 2X

BRIDGE:
And the sad thing is we're all in on the action
We're all holding our breath waiting for a reaction
Ah, you play your part and I'll be playing with matches
And if you'd like a show, you can follow the ashes

CHORUS 2X

@RoseCalfucci I can make out the words fine. Perhaps it takes practice?

Okay, this is what annoys me about music like this...They have a brilliant melody, talented musicians and a lead singer with an amazing voice...but the instruments just drown out the vocals and that just makes it a blur of music that isn't really that memorable...I mean, I've only heard a few of their songs and all of them are like that. I don't think I could be able to tell the difference between them if I just heard them. If they just tone the instruments down a bit, they could be mindblowing.

@xXxEmmeryxXx i'm loving this because i like to do the very same things with songs and other words.

[chinshihuandi]

lol you guys should compare her to Haley Williams (which is the lead singer for Paramore ["that girl from paramore" is overrated]), they just sing the same genre of songs
