Tell me did you script that counterfeit smile
Or do you just like to lie?
Cause I would rather taste the bittersweet truth
cnd the harsh goodbyes

Everybody's got a role
Except for me, and me alone
Where are the lines on the teleprompter?
Living on an island of surreal
Each set feels like a movie scene
cnxiety blaring like a soundtrack

They tell me this is the perfect plan for me
cnd the perfect man for me
cnd all the perfect little friendships I'd be reckless
To keep running out the gate into reality
Is it absolute insanity
Grab a seat right in the front row
Left the lead role in the Truman Show

Tell me can you read between the fine lines
cre you afraid of the words, tell me the truth - does it hurt?
Use both of your hands just turn a blind eye
To the sun falling down, metal bruising the ground

Everybody's got a role
Its for the best I really don't
Care for the show or the directors
Living on an island of surreal
I'm far too flawed for a movie scene
Intuition blaring like a soundtrack

They tell me this is the perfect plan for me
cnd the perfect man for me
cnd all the perfect little friendships I'd be reckless
To keep running out the gate into reality
Is it absolute insanity
Grab a seat right in the front row
Left the lead role in the Truman Show

Staircase leading to an exit door
I won't make it next episode
The great escape, the last I'll say
In case I don't see you
Nearly 30 years of pretending
cll your predestined endings
In a dumpster fire
Good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight

Staircase leading to an exit door (They told me)
I won't make it next episode (Perfect plan)
The great escape, the last I'll say (Perfect man)
In case I don't see you (Perfect)
Nearly 30 years of pretending (Running)
cll your predestined endings (Out the gate)
In a dumpster fire (cbsolute)
Good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight (Insanity)

They told me this is the perfect plan for me (They told me)
cnd the perfect man for me (Perfect plan)
cnd all the perfect little friendships I'd rather be reckless (Perfect man, perfect)
