role of a lifetime - damon intrabartolo; jon hartmere, jr. lyrics

everything’s an act
when you’re pleasing everyone
and he -ssumes that role to such renown
he plays the perfect part
straight from his heart
knowing the risk he takes
and hoping that the house is not brought down

the role of a lifetime is living a fantasy
a drama that you struggle to erase
thoughts battle words over deeds
a war with such casualties
all played out behind a smiling face

god i need your guidance
tell me what it means
to live a life where nothing’s as it seems
spending days in silent fear
and spending nights in lonely prayer
hoping that one day when you wake
those feelings won’t be there

so confused because
i feel complete with him
when we’re alone it all somehow makes sense
look into his eyes
for some compromise
remember the word, forget
and try to bury something so intense

you learn to play the straight man
your lines become routine
never really saying what you mean
but i know the scene will change
white picket fences and a dog
a trophy bride and children
god, i know that’s what he wants
but jason what role do i play?
am i a savior or a phase?
am i here to d-mn you
or to help you navigate this maze?
where confusion is a crime
so you fill your life with sound
and if you dance like h-ll
you hope you’ll never touch the ground
what happens when the music stops?
in the silence will he stay?
one day he’ll realize that these feelings aren’t going away

so we drive ourselves insane
spinning circles in our souls
as we dance around and play pretend
and once again
reprise our roles

- damon intrabartolo jon hartmere jr lyrics
