Masterpiece Theatre I
First it comes on quiet creeping slow
Clever words and phrases only stain
I remain so lost and buried under everything that I need
When all I want is here
I've been here so very long and every word is calculating
Every question all debated
All these practice poses I could wreck it if I had to
But I'm the wreck so what would that do?
My masterpiece will fall apart
It was over before the start
If I burn out and slip away
This is just a part I portray and this is just a part I portray
You're beautiful, can I hide in you a while?
This is just a part I portray and this is just a part I portray
Making mostly to themselves
Don't make a sound in case they hear you, it only hurts me to be near you
Keep those tired eyes closed
Careful follow my instruction and I will show you self-destruction
This masterpiece is only mine
Entirely guilty by design
If I burn out and slip away
This is just a part I portray and this is just a part I portray
You're beautiful, can I hide in you a while?
This is just a part I portray
Can I hide in you a while?
I just can't let it, let it out, no I just can't let it out
I just can't let it, let it out, no I just can't let it out
I just can't let it, let it out, no I just can't let it out
I just can't let it, let it out, no I just can't let it out
This is just a part I portray
You're beautiful, can I hide in you a while?
You're beautiful
If this is just a part I portray
If this is just a part I portray
I don't know how it got this way
