And runaway tears
Can't fix what your good mom & dad
Have been saving in pictures for all of these years
And it's sad
Everything fades to black yeah
All your cellophane friends
Play their monologue games
And mock everything that I am
But I don't let it phase me
'Cause they're all the same
Don't be one of them
'Cause the lights will go down on your show
And as the scenes roll by
There's something I wanted to say to you
When you live
Live with your soul
Not with your time
When you love
Love with your heart
Not with your mind
When you wanna be something the world can't define
Open up your eyes
Accidents happen
Then confidence fails
But that's not what I'm trying to say
There's this look in your eyes
That's been killing me here for days
So as the night drags on
There's this I've been meaning to say to you
When you live
Live with your soul
Not with your time
When you love
Love with your heart
Not with your mind
When you wanna be something the world can't define
Open up your eyes
You can't fake it here
You can't fake it here
You can try all you want
But you're breaking here
You can laugh it off
Tell your friends I'm soft
You can cry
You can scream
But I'll brush it off
You're not listening
You're not listening
To anything I'm trying to say
When you live
Live with your soul
Not with your time
When you love
Love with your heart
Not with your mind
When you wanna be something the world can't define
Open up your eyes
[x2]
You can't fake it here
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
All the lost kisses And runaway tears Can't fix what your good mom & dad Have been saving in pictures for all of these years And it's sad Everything fades to black yeah All your cellophane friends Play their monologue games And mock everything that I am But I don't let it phase me 'Cause they're all the same Don't be one of them 'Cause the lights will go down on your show And as the scenes roll by There's something I wanted to say to you When you live Live with your soul Not with your time When you love Love with your heart Not with your mind When you wanna be something the world can't define Open up your eyes Accidents happen Then confidence fails But that's not what I'm trying to say There's this look in your eyes That's been killing me here for days So as the night drags on There's this I've been meaning to say to you When you live Live with your soul Not with your time When you love Love with your heart Not with your mind When you wanna be something the world can't define Open up your eyes You can't fake it here You can't fake it here You can try all you want But you're breaking here You can laugh it off Tell your friends I'm soft You can cry You can scream But I'll brush it off You're not listening You're not listening To anything I'm trying to say When you live Live with your soul Not with your time When you love Love with your heart Not with your mind When you wanna be something the world can't define Open up your eyes [x2] You can't fake it here Open up your eyes Open up your eyes Explain Request ×
