backstage - theo jacobsen lyrics

Loading...

hold on, don’t say it
deep breath, hold it in
big smile, keep em happy
these parties are all the same

brights lights line the courtyard
stage set, cast on scene
i try to look past all the make-up
but as they talk at me admittedly i start to think

my heart drops when i see the crowd
ya know it’s still small talk if you’re talking loud
i watch as they perform the play
watch from backstage, from backstage

that clock’s slow, yeah i noticed
how long should i wait?
before i squeeze past the hallway strangers
find my keys, grab my coat, give a nod to the host
is the coast clear?

my heart drops when i see the crowd
ya know it’s still small talk if you’re talking loud
i watch as they perform the play
watch from backstage, from backstage

and my friends ask me to so i read the lines right on cue
and i laugh through agony but i play my part politely
and we talk through our teeth, we sell ourselves with talk so cheap
for a character to compromise, for a role-play to play the night

we’ve got melody but not much to say
i mean, aren’t you tired of these songs we play
i’m sorry, ya know on these kind of nights i’m just trying to survive, just trying to survive

my heart drops when i see the crowd
and yeah, it’s still small talk if you’re talking loud
i watch as they perform the play
watch from backstage, from backstage
