Say It's True

(albüm: One - 2012)

Must we be just actors hitting marks?
Must just spotlights know us in the dark?
Must we live our lives out in the pages?
Must we play at lovers and friends
Before they haul us off the stage?

Oh say it's true
That you are improvising.
Oh say it's true
That you
Are free and afraid like me.
Oh say it's true
That you are improvising.
Oh say it's true
That you aren't getting prompts
And haven't read ahead.

We were not given a reading list
So it's not shocking that we have missed
Some things that should have be clearer
But I swear they're references
They won't happen again

Oh say it's true
That you are improvising.
Oh say it's true
That you
Are free and afraid like me.
Oh say it's true
That you are improvising.
Oh say it's true
That you aren't getting prompts
And haven't read ahead

Don't read the end
Don't even try to guess

Oh say it's true
That you are improvising.
Oh say it's true
That you
Are free and afraid like me.
Oh say it's true
That you are improvising.
Oh say it's true
That you aren't getting prompts
